You name a part of the world where the Switch is on sale, and I'll show you that it's being hit with stock shortages. The latest part of the world to join in on the drought is South Korea, and things are quickly getting dire. A report from South Korean publication EDaily shared the following stats on how hard it is to find a Switch in the region.

- close to all 700 retailers in South Korea are sold out of the Animal Crossing: New Horizons Switch Edition
- those who are still offering the hardware are doing so through lotteries
- a retailer that got a shipment of 3 Switch units attracted a crowd of 600 people
- the suggested retail price for Switch is 360,000 won, but resellers are running prices of 800,000 – 1,000,000 won
