Q: QuestionWhen will there be a restock?? And when does Best Buy usually get new shipments?

Asked 6 years ago by gamer90100.

• A:Answer Just keep checking. Try installing a chrome extension that constantly checks if there's an update. I've noticed that there's usually been a new shipment on mondays, and some times around midnight. We installed an extension and were able to buy one.

Asked 6 years ago by rikuhighwind.

• A:Answer Just check often in the site I managed to get one on yesterday they had a huge restock wave so I’m guessing they restock a lot of Monday so check on Monday but you should still check on other days because they may restock also you can get a app on your phone which will notify you when they restock on bestbuy it’s called “HotStock” I downloaded and it actually notifies you and that’s how I managed to get one

Q: QuestionThis seems to be sold out just about everywhere, and isn’t available for pre order. Is there any way to pre order it?

Asked 6 years ago by Ari.

• A:Answer I've helped a couple of friends with this tip. Download the BB app and establish your form of payment. Check the bb site every night after 10pm and check periodically every 15 minutes there's a chance that it will pop up for pickup or delivery. I tried local pickup a few times but people have beaten me to it. So 1 night I looked it up and did the delivery instead. Having the app is helpful anf you can finalize your purchase in like 2 minutes or less.

Q: QuestionWhen is Bestbuy going to fix the issue with these bots buying and reselling all of the Nintendo Switches? This is getting ridiculous. I was able to get one in my cart before it was bought out from under me. FIX THIS.

Asked 6 years ago by Ame102.

This question was asked about the related product: Switch 32GB Console

• A:Answer I actually spoke with a Best Buy agent recently and it's not only bots. Picture this: 50 people want a Switch. At 2 pm they release 1. All 50 go for it at the same time. Whoever gets through the checkout first gets it. It sucks. Basically you just gotta hope you're the fastest. They're trying to make it so that it says "Sold Out" until they get another big shipment in, but haven't gotten there yet. They also told me that by their best-educated guess they should get the next big shipment in a few weeks, so we really just have to wait it out.

Q: QuestionIs Nintendo switch a two player game. And how do you get games for it

Asked 8 years ago by Helpme.

This question was asked about the related product: Switch 32GB Console

• A:Answer The switch is a console and portable gaming device. It can play both single and multi-player games. I believe up to 4 people can play depending on the game and assuming you have enough joycons or pro controllers. The system comes with 2 joycons which is enough for most 2 player games. The product listed comes with 1 single player game. You can buy more games at most stores with an electronics department or game stores, or you can download games from their internet store on the console itself. If you plan to buy the games online I highly recommend buying a MicroSD card for the console because the internal storage can only fit one big game and a few small ones without extra storage.

Q: QuestionHow do I pre-order the Nintendo Switch console? I am really curious to know.

Asked 8 years ago by Preordering.

This question was asked about the related product: Switch 32GB Console

• A:Answer Since the Console has already been released it is no longer available for pre-order. You may call your local store to see if they have any in stock. I can see an increase coming soon and some stores already have them in stock even if in low quantities.

Q: QuestionDo you need a TV or a monitor to run the system? What other requirements have to be in place?

Asked 5 years ago by SL.

• A:Answer No, the Nintendo switch doesn't require a TV or monitor. You will have to buy an SD card but that's it. If you don't plan on using the Nintendo Switch on the TV, I suggest you look into the Nintendo Switch Lite which is only a handheld device, can play all the same games, and is about $100 cheaper.

Q: QuestionWhen will this product be restocked

Asked 5 years ago by josh234235.

• A:Answer Check everyday it restocks randomly or call your local best buy. Your local best buy might be able to to tell you when they typically get their stocks. However, the pandemic is slowing down the process of making and shipping the switches so don't expect an exact answer because even Nintendo doesn't know exactly.

Q: QuestionCan you play or hook up the Nintendo switch to a normal TV?

Asked 6 years ago by Mike.

• A:Answer Hello! Yes you can set up the system to play on the TV! The System comes with a dock in which it charges the console and displays to whatever screen you have it connected to. In the box (*for tv use*) it comes already with the Dock, Charger, and hdmi cable to easily set up wherever you’d like to play! Placing and removing the console from the dock is seamless as you only have to set down or pick up the console! It doesn’t interrupt any gaming sessions making it the perfect hybrid console!

Q: QuestionWould this work with an older version television? What I mean is, there's no HDMI connection on my TV. How can I connect the Switch to the TV? Is there some sort of adaptor? I have a 36" Sony TV, but it has the big tube in the back. Thank you!

Asked 8 years ago by BklynGuy.

• A:Answer No it will not work out of the box. You will need to purchase a hdmi to coaxial connector or hdmi to Rgb connector. Go to Ebay they are cheap. Best Buy does sell such things also though. Time to upgrade your tv.

Q: QuestionIs this the HAC-001(-01) version?

Asked 5 years ago by mark.

This question was asked about the related product: Switch 32GB Console

• A:Answer The new Nintendo Switch has a model code that starts with HAD and a model number of HAC-001 (-01): -HADSKABAA for the model with the blue and red Joy-Con controllers -HADSKAAAA for the model with grey Joy-Con controllers The original Nintendo Switch models start with the letters HAC and a model number of HAC-001. As long as the specs section lists a model of "HAD" (vs "HAC") you know it's the newer version 2.
