Nintendo to Increase Switch Shipments in July and August

Nintendo to Increase Switch Shipments in July and August - News

by William D'Angelo , posted on 22 June 2017 / 8,074 Views

The Nintendo Switch has been a huge hit for the gaming giant. The popularity of the console has led to stock shortages.

Nintendo on its Japanese site stated there are weekly shipments of the console and it will increase shipments in July and August. 

Nintendo plans to work as hard as possible to have as many units shipped for the fall and beyond to meet as much as the demand as possible.

They better. The longer this shortage drags out the more it hurts them in the future.

I think the shortage is coming to an end. Stores are starting to have them in stock for more than a day. Demand is falling slightly. That may change when Splatoon 2 releases though.
