Over 3,000 people, and 105 Switch units to sell. That was the situation with the latest Switch lottery, which was held in Tokyo’s Ikebukuro. Nintendo is definitely getting more stock out there, but the situation is still a rough one.

Japanese morning show Tokudane sent out one of their reporters to assess the situation. The reporter was looking to walk into a retailer and buy a Switch. As you can guess, it didn't go well. After visiting 48 different retailers, not a single one of them had a Switch to purchase.
