Best Buy Selling Limited Number Of NES Classic Edition In Stores Only; Nintendo Switch Available April 28 [VIDEO]
ByAlthough Nintendo officially discontinued the NES Classic Edition mini-console, but for at least one day, the device will be on sale at Best Buy stores in the U.S. The NES Classic Edition will have limited quantities, so game enthusiasts who want to grab the mini-console should be there early.
Best Buy made it known on its Twitter account that the company will be offering limited stocks of the NES Classic Edition console. The limited stocks of the classic console are available only for purchase through the Best Buy stores and not online. Best Buy is also giving discounts on NES Classic Edition accessories, The Verge reported.
Best Buy announced that the NES Classic Edition consoles will be sold on a first come first serve basis. Some of the Best Buy stores are going to have a ticketing process, which the multinational retailer will distribute before their doors will open. Several of these Best Buy stores are located in New York City. However, Best Buy didn't provide how many stocks of the NES Classic Edition are available.
Best Buy will be selling one NES Classic Edition per customer only. Nintendo released the NES Classic Edition console last year at $60 and the device became a surprise hit for the Japanese tech giant. Nonetheless, the classic console is currently being sold on eBay for more than $200, which is three to four times the regular price, USA Today report.
Meanwhile, the weekly flyer of Best Buy listed the Nintendo Switch as being available in stores on April 28. Since the Nintendo Switch was launched, the availability of Nintendo's latest gaming system on April 28 coincides with the release of the biggest Switch game, "Mario Kart 8 Deluxe" racing game. In spite of that, the Japanese tech company claimed that the Nintendo Switch supply will eventually catch up to the demand, Game Spot reported.
