Individual units of the Nintendo Switch are available in-store only (limit one per household), but bundles still can be ordered online so be sure to get to your local GameStop.
Those who are looking to just purchase the Nintendo Switch do not have to participate in the trade-in offers, but that option is available for those looking to get something for their older system (*cough* especially the Wii U *cough*).
While the Nintendo Switch shortage is ongoing, Nintendo will double production of the Switch over the next fiscal year to get ready for some of the console’s biggest releases. But if you don’t want to wait until more units are available, get down to your local GameStop.
GameStop encourages customers to contact their local store to check for availability. You can find a GameStop near you using the store locator.
