The low supply and high demand is creating a desperate situation for consumers. Today photographs were taken of people literally lining up around the block to enter a lottery for the mere chance to purchase a Switch. This first location had a grand total of 37 units to sell. https://www.wsj.com/articles/nintendo-battles-apple-for-parts-as-switch-demand-rises-1496136603 http://m.neogaf.com/showthread.php?t=1385292 --- Intel Ops 1964 Kennedy \| Die Hard Drive with a Vengeance \| 54x Carthaginian Corsair Privateer \| Guardian Force Bahamut <cite>Jeff Zero posted [p:880374702] in Japanese c...
