Picked one up at Target this morning, they still had 20+ left too.

The hardware ratios between stores seems so weird. Best Buy ran out of Zelda copies, but had a lot of Pro Controllers. My brother was able to crash a Gamestop midnight launch and got a physical copy of Zelda there, but they only had less than 5 Switches for non-preorders...

Anyone have any impressions of the Zelda Special Edition carrying case? I went to Target for a pro controller, and ended up grabbing the Zelda Special Edition. However, I don't need a map or coin or anything. Might not be worth the $40 upcharge over regular.

So whats the ETA on regular availability online at major retailers? A week? Two?

Saw something that said Toys R Us would have new stock on Sunday.

Went by the local Best Buy to see if they happened to have any (figuring it would be a no). They actually had quite a few still in stock. The manager said that their regional manager demanded the corporate office send them at least 30 units per region store since they screwed them over (his words) when the NES classic game out and didn't send them to any of the stores in the region. So, I lucked into one.
I really don't understand the obsession with this issue, its not as if this is some kind of novel issue that Bluetooth devices don't play well with obstructions, and I've mentioned it before, but its not exclusive to the Switch either. Same kind of stuff happened to the Playstation 4 for several months after I purchased it (and this was several months after it was initially released). The Xbox One controller paired with the original Xbox One is the only controller that would be 100% immune to these kinds of issues of the current consoles.tamusc said:
FYI, this is real advice from Nintendo about the Joy-Con connectivity issues.

Congrats!
I haven't been able to bring myself to spend $50 on. Bomberman, which my kids might not enjoy anyway, so I've just played Zelda and the Snipperclips demo so far. However, staying up late last night sniping this system off Amazon Prime Now has caught up to me, and I had to take a wee nap. /old
