For the past few months, the Nintendo Switch became nearly impossible to find. Production was slowed in Asia due to the virus, and people were buying more consoles and games to help defeat boredom while stuck at home. This caused a spike in sales for all sorts of entertainment, from Ring Fit Adventure’s spike in sales to the Switch console itself. For months, the only way to get a Switch was to buy a used one at a markup.

But Nintendo has some good news and bad news for those still waiting to get their hands on a sold-out Nintendo Switch Lite or regular Switch. Production is finally back to normal, and Nintendo will be pumping out new consoles at pre-pandemic rates. But this amazing news comes with a bit of a caveat: Nintendo is so far behind, it doesn’t know when production will finally catch up to demand.
With some really good Switch titles released in 2020 and the pandemic still hanging around in many countries, the demand for the Switch and Switch Lite most likely won’t be going anywhere anytime soon. This will inevitably lead to buyers gobbling up all the stock and attempting to resell them at inflated prices. That means that even with production back in line, fans may still not be able to get their hands on one.
