News: If you are still looking for a Nintendo Switch then you might want to hurry over to your local Gamestop and see if they have any more consoles.

Gamestop has revealed that they have Nintendo Switch consoles in stock but you won’t be able to get them on their website as they only have them in stores. Supply is going to be limited so be sure to get there soon if you want to try and get one in time for the release of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe this Friday.

“It's perfect timing to have additional Nintendo Switch units arrive just days before the launch of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, one of the biggest and most loved games from Nintendo,” said Eric Bright, senior director of Merchandising for GameStop. “This is truly an amazing pairing of the latest in Nintendo technology innovation with a classic, iconic game.”

The Nintendo Switch system and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe are available for individual purchase. GameStop will offer the Nintendo Switch system for $299.99, and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for $59.99. Additionally, GameStop is offering accessories and collectible toys, such as the Mario Kart Mini Anti-Gravity RC Racer for $49.99, and the Nintendo Switch Racing Wheel or Switch Joy-Con Racing Wheel both for $14.99.

To make a Nintendo Switch purchase even more affordable, GameStop is offering up to a $200 credit when a customer trades in a PlayStation 4, Xbox One, new Nintendo 3DS or Wii U (32GB) and applies the credit towards the purchase of a Nintendo Switch. This offer is currently available and runs through Sunday, April 30.

“If Nintendo Switch and/or Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is on a customer’s gaming wish list, I would strongly suggest they plan to come to our stores as soon as they can. These products will not last through the weekend!” Bright continued.

Customers should contact their store for availability and more information. If you aren’t able to get one at Gamestop today keep in mind that Toys “R” Us also announced they will have more in stock on Friday. Will you be trying to acquire a Nintendo Switch so that you can play Mario Kart 8 Deluxe this weekend?
