A:AnswerYou may purchase the warranty at the time of purchase. However Nintendo themselves offer free service to repair or replace drifting joycons. Due to the current epidemic the Nintendo service has been put on hold until further notice. Check out https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/ if you want.
A:AnswerCheck 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.
A:AnswerIt was in stock yesterday (Tuesday, 08/19/2020), I finally got to purchased my own. They should be showing up again little by little. Keep an eye out, it may restock again next week.
A:AnswerThere is not a set restock time for these things, I was able to get mine at 2am at complete random. Check as much as possible and get ready to just hit add to cart.
A:AnswerLook into the app HotStock. I was able to buy one within hours. The app alerts you when any store gets any in stock.
Best Buy seems to put about twenty in stock every couple of hours.
A:AnswerIf you have Animal Crossing, you can play up to 4 people on one switch. Its called Couch Co-op. I don't know if you can do it on other games, though.
A:AnswerI kept reloading the page and it eventually said add to cart so I was able to get one. You have to be fast to check out because it goes out of stock really fast. I advise using a laptop or desktop so the loading time is faster and you’ll most likely get the switch.
A:AnswerUnfortunately because of the limited stock you can’t preorder while they are out of stock. You just have to keep checking and wait until they restock to order.
A:AnswerJust keep checking consistently a few times a day. I would suggest getting an app like HotStock or something! I think they had a good amount restocked on Thursday because my sister and I were able to buy one. Maybe we got lucky but I think they’re slowly starting to restock so just keep an eye out and stay persistent, good luck!
A:AnswerIt gets restocked randomly throughout the day, so check often. I started using the site Zoolert which constantly monitors Best Buy and other stores' inventories and audibly tells you when an item is back in stock (as long as you keep the tab open). The closest I've gotten so far to getting a Switch is I had it in my cart and was just about to put in my payment info when I was told the Switch was out of stock. What I've read is there are bots that snatch up all the available inventory whenever it's back in stock. You just gotta be really quick or you'll miss out. It seems that either Best Buy doesn't reserve a product for you if it's in your cart until you buy it, or the bots are so fast that in the time between me clicking "Add to cart" and going to checkout they already got all the inventory so now it would be out of stock.
A:Answerthere was a small restock today actually. i would recommend downloading an app like hotstock or something that will alert you when the switch is back in stock on trusted websites like gamestop best buy and target. hope you get one soon!
A:AnswerI actually got one that very same day online on Best Buy, that guys had no clue what he was talking about. I just kept checking in. Try restock websites, they helped a lot.
My switch is arriving this Friday
