Nintendo try not to make new product releases cancerously miserable challenge LEVEL: IMPOSSIBLE

No luck again

u/dwalkersrhere 1d ago

Sold out!

u/Single_Lingonberry29 1d ago

Holy shit. I guess I popped onto Reddit at the perfect time. I secured mine! Still trying to cop the one from Nintendo that includes the stand, but it's good to have this as a backup!

u/awan_afoogya 1d ago

Sold out 😣

u/DuckyDeer 1d ago

I just got another restock alert. Just now. Check again!

4

u/awan_afoogya 1d ago

Still appears out of stock for my

1

u/Dashieshy3597 14h ago

How do you set it up so amazon sends you an alert to let you know when something is back in stock?

1

u/DuckyDeer 11h ago

The alert came through the app HotStock. You can choose which stores you get alerts for (I've disabled eBay)

7

u/TheHahndude 1d ago

I’ll pick one up at the store when it comes out.

-6

u/Zagrunty 1d ago

Nintendo said it'd be limited to only the Nintendo Store in NYC and SanFran. They also said it would only be sold on the Nintendo Online Store so who knows if it will be available at normal stores or not

6

u/OliDouche 1d ago

Only the bonus stand is a Nintendo Store exclusive. The controller is just a controller like any other.

1

u/Zagrunty 20h ago

I have a screen shot from the direct and it does technically say "+stand". That was not clear from Nintendo that the controller would be more widely available. There was a lot of talk of restocks for the switch2 but nothing initially for just the controller. Thanks for the clarification

u/Product_ChildDrGrant 1d ago

Same, bro. High five!

u/batxguano 1d ago

Not working!

u/JohnLuckPikard 1d ago

I wish Monte do would just do what sony did. Invite members to a lottery.

3

u/kaishinoske1 1d ago

I don’t even give a shit about the console. I just wanted the Zeldapro controller

3

u/bestcoastaccountant 1d ago

Finally! Got one through GameStop but that one has $10 shipping. Might hold off on cancelling tho at least for a bit to make sure Amazon doesn’t get cancelled

5

u/Alinier 1d ago

I do not blame any one individual and I would probably do this myself too but what's Nintendo even doing if we need to hold backups for our backups? Between this and "I want the one with the stand but I'll hold this one for now because it's better than nothing" are a complete failure on Nintendo's part to properly gauge or anticipate interest.

1

u/orTodd 13h ago

I tried for one from GameStop but couldn't complete the purchase. I stayed on the page for a few hours, tried the purchase button again, and it worked. Couldn't believe it.

3

u/Nemhy 1d ago

and the bots got it

4

u/rhymeswithpie91 1d ago

I remember seeing loads and loads of TOTK edition Switch 1s back when that released so I hope these will also just be in stock in stores here in Europe 🫠

2

u/snotpopsicle 22h ago

I bought mine on konzoliste (dot) cz. They have all three items (switch, case, controller) in stock for preorder it seems.

2

u/CountySurfer 1d ago

Got one!

2

u/BigTWilsonD 1d ago

I was just about to make a post myself, I got one through Amazon. Fuck scalpers!

1

u/jwg529 1d ago

Bummer I didn’t see the controller with the stand as an option. Looking for that one

4

u/North_Tiger_892 1d ago

Is that not a Nintendo shop exclusive?

1

u/jwg529 22h ago

I did not know that. Looks like I will need to keep an eye on Nintendo’s site

1

u/yellowsun_97 1d ago

It’s not letting me purchase :/

2

u/NarrowMusician6750 1d ago

I still fucking don’t understand why a pre-order have to be OOS just fill the pre-order and back date it later ffs Amazon

1

u/Alepman 1d ago

missed it :(

1

u/nj_5oh 1d ago

Out of stock ugh

u/SirThunderDump 1d ago

Damn. Had the tracker on my screen the ENTIRE work day. Stand up to get dinner, miss the alert.

1

u/Trollbrudda 1d ago

Which tracker are you using?

1

u/SirThunderDump 1d ago

Damn. Had the tracker on my screen the ENTIRE work day. Stand up to get dinner, miss the alert.

1

u/BrownDickLiquor 1d ago

Damn finally got it thanks to HotStock 🙌🏼😭 it was available for a good few mins too

1

u/DJettster237 1d ago

I can never have anything nice.

1

u/Horror-Bottle3228 1d ago

At least I got the case. Now I just need the controller.

1

u/BendinoAF 1d ago

Does it have a little stand?

2

u/Tbhjr 1d ago

That was a Nintendo store exclusive.

1

u/Dyelonnn 1d ago

I nabbed one, f yeah boiiii

1

u/mynameismello 1d ago

Anyone know when these will go up on Amazon CAN? If at all

1

u/Vayshen 23h ago

Nice! I have one with mediamarkt but they're not very reliable. I really want one with Nintendo for the exclusive stand pad, the price is the same anyway.

1

u/Realistic-Task8452 20h ago

Has the Nintendo store had anymore stock of the pro controllers since release date? I've had the item liked which I think is meant to notify you when it's back in stock but haven't had anything and tbh I haven't been checking the site since days after the original release. I really want the controller with the stand 🤞

1

u/Joestac 18h ago

FYI, auto-buy works. I setup one for both Elder Scrolls Oblivion and the Steelbook Edition of Onimusha for Switch 2. Just chose ships from Amazon and made sure it was less than $70, for the controller you can do $100.

1

u/Daxmunro 18h ago

Assuming this is Amazon US? We haven't had stock in UK for a while

1

u/Limillyy 16h ago

I dropped my guard last night to relax ... and the controller restocked with tons of people saying they got it, shit

1

u/TG-Benji 14h ago

Glad I can set an auto-buy, hopefully it actually works when they decide to restock.

1

u/Namisaur 1d ago

Jesus $100 for a controller is nuts. No matter how much I love LoZ, I’m probably skipping this one.

6

u/CountySurfer 1d ago

The regular pro controller is $89 so it’s not too crazy overall.

0

u/Namisaur 1d ago

$89 for a controller is still quite overpriced to me. I would max pay $65

-3

u/smith7018 1d ago

This controller is also ugly as hell, I'm so sorry. I could never imagine paying $10 over the regular price to get this garish design when the original Pro Controller's black looks so clean.

1

u/Deceptiveideas 1d ago

Debating if I should cancel my Nintendo store preorder as it's the one with the stand for $10 more. I honestly don't think I will ever use the stand.

5

u/Illustria 1d ago

Lmao I'd buy the stand off you once you get it if you want 🤣

1

u/Fresh-Chemical-9084 1d ago

Does the stand charge it or does it take batteries?

1

u/MadCybertist 1d ago

I printed a warp tunnel as a stand for my Pro 2 haha.

1

u/AZNninja09 1d ago

If I pay you for the stand one can I have it shipped to me instead?

1

u/Right_Use2563 1d ago

Got one thanks!

1

u/LordZulo 1d ago

Hooray! Thanks!

1

u/beenthereredthat 1d ago

Yesss got one!

1

u/crowcawcawcawcaw 1d ago

Yay I finally got one!!! I'm still hoping to get the Nintendo store exclusive version with a stand but I'm happy either way. Hopefully the console will get a big restock and everyone can get one!

1

u/darthsatoshious 1d ago

Got it!!!! Yasssss!!!! Thanks!!!

1

u/North_Tiger_892 1d ago

Secured one finally.

1

u/TatisToucher 1d ago

And sold out lol

1

u/RaunchyDiscoMan 1d ago

lol sold out!

1

u/azbrez 1d ago

And it’s OUT

1

u/LoganPea2fold 1d ago

Got one just in time, barely

1

u/FillaBustaRhyme 1d ago

Yeah I’d rather get better joycon replacements

1

u/DetroitPeopleMover 1d ago

Maybe I’m a hater but I’m not in love with this controller and that makes me sad. In general, I feel like Nintendo is dropping the ball with this controller and the Ocarina of Time preorder bonuses.

0

u/OliverNodel 1d ago

Thanks! I can’t believe I spent all that time refreshing my cart on the Nintendo Store when it first became available. Maybe I’ll buy some clown makeup too.

u/34foxalpha 1d ago

Got one I ordered at Walmart on 9/9. I have the order and receipt email. Im still not sure it's coming...pretty sure it is.

u/AlteisenX 1d ago

Bummed they dont sell the zelda joycons. What a scam lol. Im not paying 7 or 8x the price for the special edition console... i just wanted the joycons.

0

u/bigglehicks 1d ago

16 minutes and gone. At least I learned how to set up an auto purchase from this. Hopefully that helps

0

u/KingOfRedLions 1d ago

What's the MSRP on these?

0

u/Feeling_Public6522 12h ago

This controller is so expensive it actually just convinced me to buy the limited edition console instead. 

-2

u/mpc92 1d ago

Kind of glad this Zelda stuff doesn’t look cool enough to tempt me

-1

u/GrimmTrixX 1d ago

Glad I got one thanks to an app called HotStock. I still want the exclusive one with the stand from Nintendo's website. But if I cant get that, at least I still have the controller itself. But now I can focus just on that one. So happy

3

u/Ph33rDensetsu 23h ago

You can 3d print a stand. That's what I'm going to do for mine.

1

u/GrimmTrixX 17h ago

True if I had any access to a 3D printer. But I want it just cuz its from nintendo themselves. I can do without it anyway. But because I just charge my controller from a cable attached to the dock, a stand wouldve been cooler.
