Buyers hoping to purchase the Zelda 40th Anniversary Switch 2 are facing shortages as scalpers exploit high demand. Pre-orders for the themed console have sold out at multiple retailers, with eBay listings showing prices exceeding $800. The console, featuring a green Joy-Con and Triforce designs, is part of Nintendo’s celebration of the franchise’s 40th anniversary. A special Zelda-themed Pro Controller and carrying case are also set to arrive. The console and accessories will be available on October 29, a week before the November 5 release of the Ocarina of Time remake. Nintendo has praised the design, calling it colorful and appealing. The limited availability has led to inflated prices on secondary markets, raising concerns about accessibility for genuine customers. The release date aligns with the broader celebration of Zelda’s legacy, with fans eagerly anticipating both the hardware and the long-awaited game.
