'Nintendo Classic Mini' Stock Updates: On GAME Coming, Switch Following The Same Path

It seems like Nintendo focuses all advertisement on Nintendo Switch. Rumors have been circulating on the internet that Nintendo stopped production of the Nintendo Classic Mini, but Nintendo denied the rumor. In fact, there's going to be a stock boost and a limited edition Nintendo Classic Mini.

According to Express, UK retailer "GAME" will be housing restocks and it will come, as usual, for first come first served basis. Restocks will come on London and Middlesbrough GAME branches. The only catch on this is, the stock status will not be available online and players must visit the branches personally. And since there's only a limited amount of Nintendo Classic Mini restocks, players must call up before going to the store personally.

These restock are the only way players can buy the console at their original price of $60. Online retail shops such as eBay always have a console available, but with a higher price. Some of the prices are even three times higher than the original price.

If there's one thing on Nintendo NES Mini that is very frustrating except its stock shortage, it is its short controller cords. Fortunately, Nintendo Switch controllers can now be paired with the NES Classic. 8Bitdo's update through its wireless receiver makes it possible to connect Switch Joy-Cons and Nintendo Pro Controller to the NES Mini.

And speaking of Nintendo Switch, there seems to be a beginning of stock shortage as well. The grey and neon red-blue version of the Nintendo Switch is becoming scarce as well, according to Daily Star. There are new stocks on 365 Games for both the colors mentioned above, but it will cost more. But because of how fast the stocks are going out of shelves, Switch might be as rare as the NES Classic Mini. It might be the only chance to get the Switch while there are still available stocks.
