Buy Nintendo Switch: Nintendo wants to increase production, rumors about Pro model

Buy Nintendo Switch

Anyone who wants to buy a Nintendo Switch currently needs a good deal of patience: The current Nintendo game console is completely out of stock in many places. Amazon.de, for example, expects that new consoles will not be able to go on sale until mid-May. In order to meet the great demand, Nintendo is said to have knocked on the manufacturer's door and asked for a production increase, according to a report by Nikkei. By the end of the current fiscal year (March 31, 2022), switch production is to be increased to 30 million units. Never before has Nintendo produced so many consoles in a year, writes the website VGC.

Nikkei also reports that production depends on the current market situation: There is currently a huge demand for chips and other electronic components worldwide - not only in the gaming sector, but also in the automotive industry, among other things. "Some officials have told us that they are planning to expand production," continues Nikkei.
