Within the framework of My Nintendo store lottery, 2.2 million people sent applications – this is a few times higher than the company’s estimates and affordable supply volumes.
Furukava apologized to the fans, Nintendo’s front and production increased components, but still could not provide the demand, he said. Deliveries at the beginning of June 5 will cover only a small part of the applications.
Those who do not enter the first wave will not need to apply again – they automatically participate in the second stage of the Lottery, but there is not enough space there.
The company promised to strengthen its production capacities and offered to watch other lotteries in retail stores and online. Sales via my Nintendo store will continue after the version. The starting game will be available with the console – Mario Kart World.
The Japanese already saw the Switch 2 ad on the streets and on the air – the beginning of the marketing campaign was largely scale.
