[Nintendo Switch] I’ve applied for about eight lotteries, but what if I win them all…?

Japan Otaku Reviews+

If I buy everything, will it be 480,000 yen? Is that possible…

1: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx37

Everything, go wrong.

3: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx11

Think about that after you hit it.

For now, I will apply as much as I can.

5: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>3

Everyone is like that.

Of course, the probability continues to decrease; it’s hell.

6: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>5

HELL, or rather, hell.

9: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>5

If everyone applied the same number of times for the lottery of all the stores.

Because it will no longer change probabilistically…

4: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

By the time you get the second one, aren’t you already overwhelmed?

7: Japan Otaku Reviews

That’s why I want to escape from the lottery hell quickly, so I’m doing my best to apply.

To fall off.

8: Japan Otaku Reviews

What am I going to do if I don’t win?

10: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

>>8

I can only watch the MariKa thread with a handkerchief in my mouth, lol.

11: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

If it doesn’t work out the first time, I’ll probably just struggle for years like with the PS5…

30: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>11

When the Switch launched, there was a shortage of components in the second and third years, leading to the reign of resellers, which resulted in that terrible situation.

It seems that the parts supply is doing well this time, so it looks like they will be distributed quickly.

I think there are limits in the first year, though.

12: Japan Otaku Reviews

Screech!

13: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder how much profit I would make if I hit everything and resold it.

22: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>13

Isn’t it possible to get around 30,000 yen for one unit?

14: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even though I hate reselling, isn’t it ethically questionable to resell just because there are excess items?

Giving it to a friend who wants it at the regular price within a range where I don’t lose anything.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>14

Since I don’t have friends, would you become my friend if I give you something?

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>18

If you become friends with an anonymous person and follow them home, you’ll be brought in and violated.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t particularly hate reselling.

It would have been great if Nintendo had just let me win.

16: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

I cast a curse on the anonymous user that not only won’t hit but will also backfire.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m sorry, but Switch 2 is just too good…

Here is a share.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews

If by chance I win two, I’ll sell one to a friend at the original price.

21: Japan Otaku Reviews

The shock of the first lottery was so big that I ended up applying to quite a few companies…

23: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I decided to go ahead and resell, it turned out that Nintendo had produced more than expected, and it was discovered that everyone could buy it at the stores.

It was such a life.

24: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx9

>>23

Isn’t that kind of life what you’re living because you’re doing things like that?

25: Japan Otaku Reviews

There’s hardly any advantage to a game software you can’t play until you get the hardware, what are you going to do about it?

26: Japan Otaku Reviews

I guess I’ll continue applying for the lottery every day until I can get it.

27: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you transfer that right of purchase, I will forgive you.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews

First of all, since none have hit, I’m not considering the possibility of multiple wins.

29: Japan Otaku Reviews

Although there are conditions, it is an ultra-official lottery that fans can easily clear, so the reason I lost is that I didn’t win.

Doesn’t it feel like retail is going to become decentralized from there?

I’m sure I can definitely win the lottery at Aeon.

I’m saying this because it’s this time, but no one should have noticed the lottery for Kids Republic.

34: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>29

It’s interesting that there are four different lottery types just for the ion.

Given its scale, that’s to be expected.

It seems that the ones only available to credit cardholders have low odds.

31: Japan Otaku Reviews

It feels like a festival with everyone gathering, but once you calm down about the 50,000 yen price, I think there will be quite a few cancellations.

It seems that there will be a considerable number of cancellations due to multiple wins and violations.

32: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t have an Aeon card.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews

MyNin only had capacity up to the limit for deliveries and such.

I hope there is a lot of it available for general distribution that can be properly handled.

38: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>33

Nintendo only has one retail company that it acquired 10 years ago.

In reality, even though the shipping company does most of it, it seems like a considerable stretch with 500,000 units.

General retail seems to vary in number depending on how much they emphasize measures against reselling domestically.

If the purpose is to prevent reselling to China, then Nintendo Direct added those conditions for the multilingual version.

I wonder how much allocation they are getting from Amazon with almost no guard.

42: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>38

Nintendo Sales Co., Ltd. is the former Jessnet that was acquired and became a subsidiary in 2017.

The old Jessnet is not a retail company but a wholesaler that has been handling Nintendo products since before the franchise started.

35: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

In the past few years, I’ve only been using Yodobashi for online shopping, and I haven’t really made many cards, so there haven’t been any retailers where I could apply for a lottery.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

I applied for the one where you show your Aeon card during iAEON checkout.

It seems like it might be more likely than the official one…

37: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s like living at Jusco and Ito Yokado, so if I’m rewarded based on my spending with the Aeon card, I’m definitely confident I’ll win.

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>37

There are quite a few people like that, right?

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s better not to apply to too many places, as it will just cause confusion if there’s overlap!!!!!!

41: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Since there hasn’t been a halt in logistics due to COVID and there is no semiconductor shortage, resellers who are preparing with the same attitude as for the Switch and PS5 are likely to suffer significantly.

43: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx10

>>41

I did it!!!

45: Japan Otaku Reviews

If I don’t win the official second lottery, I think I won’t buy anything until I calm down.

51: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>45

There is a feeling of thinking “do we really need to go that far, like making a card?”

Well, I do want it, but…

46: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder if there will be people getting angry saying, “Don’t promote things that can’t be bought on the official X like popular plastic models!!!”

47: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’ll wait a little after the release until it becomes available for regular purchase.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews

The operator of the Nintendo Store is Nintendo itself.

I don’t really understand whether they are selling inventory directly from headquarters before it goes on sale or what.

49: Japan Otaku Reviews

The feeling of superiority when seeing “Nintendo Switch 2” displayed in the purchase history of the My Nintendo Store, which I will be relying on for many years, both past and future?

Perhaps as long as this exists, there may be preferential treatment in future developments? It might hold significance to obtain it through official Nintendo sales channels as a sort of talisman.

50: Japan Otaku Reviews

I made an Ion card and applied.

Since there are quite a few around the Aeon area, I had planned to make it eventually.

52: Japan Otaku Reviews

It will be displayed like this.

Nintendo Switch (OLED Model) White Total: 37,980 yen (including tax) View details

It will be displayed like this.

53: Japan Otaku Reviews

Why not borrow 500,000 yen from a cat and resell it?

54: Japan Otaku Reviews

If I apply for multiple types of the Ion ones, will all of them be invalid?

That was close!

55: Japan Otaku Reviews

Yodobashi-kun… when will you…

56: Japan Otaku Reviews

In other words, it uses a special LCD panel and is initially estimated to exceed 10 million units per year.

If it gains popularity, it will probably become hard to obtain for years.

So I won’t shy away from any means.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m not expecting much since they’ll all probably be wrong anyway.

58: Japan Otaku Reviews

Just selling the main unit doesn’t really make much profit…

59: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Nintendo doesn’t make a profit even when selling the consoles.

It’s frustrating that resellers make a huge profit.

60: Japan Otaku Reviews

If I apply for about 10 on my own, will it be possible…?

61: Japan Otaku Reviews

Retail isn’t profitable, yet the workload just increases.

62: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you win multiple lotteries, you only need to buy one, right?

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

I applied to about four retail positions, but since they all have relatively lenient conditions, I don’t have high expectations.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews

I have a feeling that everything will miss.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

I want to secure at least one of the earliest models.

66: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was like that during the PS5 era, but anyone who doesn’t have a route to smuggle into China will find that no one buys second-hand personal sales with no warranty in Japan, so they’ll just end up collecting dust on Mercari.

85: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>66

I hope that happens.

88: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>85

It’s unfortunate that both the situation of resellers flocking and causing shortages, and the fact that resold items won’t sell at all and continue to be unsold, are definitely going to happen.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews

If nobody is going to buy it, then that means I can buy it!

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

There was a B’z fan who was on the verge of death with a scheme like an anonymous poster.

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>68

What on earth…?

69: Japan Otaku Reviews

I applied to Bic Camera.

It’s the kind of lottery where you can’t enter unless you make a purchase over a certain amount with a credit card, so I hope I win…

70: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think it would be tough if it doesn’t work out officially.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m really shocked that the memory card standard in Switch2 can’t be used like before.

I was planning to use this 512GB memory card.

75: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>72

The loading time is going to be amazing.

73: Japan Otaku Reviews

Many people were shocked when they found out that the price had increased after they thought they could just buy a PS5 after Monster Hunter was released.

I don’t think such people would want to miss out on the reddish sales of the Switch 2 Japanese version.

74: Japan Otaku Reviews

I can still fight on the Switch.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you’re already in the Nintendo Club anyway.

Even if you are eliminated in the second round, the system is designed so that you will eventually win in the third or fourth round, right?

77: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I’m hitting it, so it’s fine.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s scary that even those who won the lottery haven’t been able to buy it yet.

79: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

As expected, for a while, the lottery will likely continue to prioritize those who meet the first application conditions, so I should be able to get it within about six months.

80: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you win multiple times, you can give it to your favorite V.

81: Japan Otaku Reviews

Seeing the official disaster, the scalpers are going all out, so I can’t help but feel that even if I apply for four, I’ll easily miss out on all of them.

82: Japan Otaku Reviews

If they properly acknowledge the group that is willing to wait to buy if they can, then I don’t care about other places.

I hope it won’t take half a year or something like that.

83: Japan Otaku Reviews

There are probably a lot of people reselling since it’s selling so well…

I’ll think of it as saving money and endure it.

84: Japan Otaku Reviews

Clearly, it’s on pace to exceed 10 million units in the first year, so I don’t think the 2 million people who meet the initial conditions need to rush too much for now.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews

For now, just resell it; they should easily buy the Japanese version for over 20,000 more.

87: Japan Otaku Reviews

First, the conditions leading up to the lottery are strict.

89: Japan Otaku Reviews

I can understand that they are focusing on measures against large-scale organized scalpers because of the painful experience with the Switch.

Measures against individual resellers are really necessary.

90: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you win multiple times, canceling instead of reselling is impossible, right…?
