Where can I still buy the Nintendo Switch? Sold-out console still available online
NINTENDO Switches are selling out fast across the globe as Nintendo's factories struggle to keep up with skyrocketing demand.
We've rounded up the places you can still buy them while stocks last as gamers scramble to snap up the last consoles.
Where to buy a Nintendo Switch
The original Nintendo Switch is sold-out pretty much everywhere, meaning you can only grab the smaller Switch Lite for now.
Unlike the full-sized Switch, the Lite doesn't plug into your telly, and so only works handheld.
However, it is cheaper than its bigger brother, so is well worth considering if you're eyeing up a new console.
We don't know when the full-sized Switch will be back in stock, so it may be worth bagging one of these for now.
US stock

- Nintendo Switch Lite pre-order with two games, a $20 eShop card and screen protector for $349.99 from GameStop -
- Nintendo Switch pre-order with three games and a Pro Controller for $499.99 from GameStop -
When will the Switch be back in stock?
Nintendo hasn't said when it expects stocks of the fully-fledged Switch to be replenished.
Typically, the gaming giant takes about a month to full re-stock retailers where the console has sold out.
Last year, for instance, the Switch sold out over the Christmas period and didn't make a return until late January.
However, it's possible stock could take much longer to be replenished this time around.
That's because the current global pandemic has hampered supply chains coming out of China.
It's not clear when the factories in China that make the Switch - as well as other gadgets like the iPhone - will be back up to full capacity.
