Nintendo Switch 2 Zelda 40th Anniversary Edition Details Revealed
Nintendo’s 40th-anniversary Zelda Switch 2 edition is priced at $520 with an October 29 release, but early demand has caused immediate sell-outs at major retailers like Best Buy and Target. While Amazon and Walmart remain open for pre-orders, scalpers are already reselling units for nearly double the MSRP, making the standard price a fleeting opportunity for buyers.
According to GN technics/hardware (en-US), initial stock at Target, Best Buy, and GameStop vanished instantly after the announcement, prompting scalpers to list units on eBay for up to $1,000. While Amazon and Walmart still show availability for pre-orders at the $519.99 MSRP, the retailer notes that securing a unit at this price may be a race against the scalpers.
