why cant I purchase this if its 11/21/18>? null

I went to the store to purchase this item today on 11/21 and they stated it cannot be sold until 11/22 but they had them in the back. The release date posted online for several days was incorrect and I contacted Best Buy Customer Service and was told it was Nintendo that states when the item could be released for sale. They still and could not explain why they posted the date for today, 11/21/18. Funny how the call was disconnected with no call back.

Just an FYI because Best Buy was confusing and Walmart’s site crashed on me I went on to game stop got it for the same price and even got a 50$ GameStop gift card with purchase! GameStop for the win

Walmart has the same bundle and the countdown is leading up to midnight 11/22/18

I would assume they made an error since it’s a black friday deal and not a black wednesday deal. You think they would know what they were doing, but apparently not.

Because you were too late. It was available online starting at 9pm until they sold out. I bought mine online right at 9, and the next morning it was sold out.

The Switch bundle with Mario Kart 8 went on sale for online purchase at 7pm last night (11/21/18), consistent with the available date associated with the advertisement. I didn't know the exact time availability would open up but assumed 7pm since that's when a Best Buy competitor (an evil mega box store) was putting the same bundle up for sale on the their website. Luckily I managed to get an order in for my daughter with Best Buy (yay! Love the points! ). I noticed that by this morning it was no longer available for purchase online through Best Buy's or their competitor's website. Both said "In store only".... Since it is technically a Black Friday sale, it makes sense that the Switch is only available once Best Buy starts their in store sales tonight. But hopefully you can make it to Best Buy tonight and snag the bundle before it sells out. It's a sweet deal! Good luck and Happy Thanksgiving!

You can purchase it, it is available to add to cart

On sale online only RIGHT NOW!!!!

Just FYI, the exact same deal is already available online at walmart.com. I just bought mine =)
