Excited about the newly announced Nintendo Switch OLED? If so, you're going to want to pre-order the handheld/console hybrid if you have any hopes of acquiring one when it launches on October 8, 2021.
So far, Nintendo Switch OLED pre-orders are already live in Australia at EB Games and JB Hi-Fi, and it's expected that more retailers will follow shortly.
EB Games and JB Hi-Fi have the new Nintendo console listed for AU$539, with both retailers offering it in the two available colour options – White and Neon.
Additionally, EB Games is also offering the new Nintendo Switch OLED at the reduced price of AU$299 when you trade-in your current Nintendo Switch console (excludes Nintendo Switch Lite).
So if you're looking to secure a Nintendo Switch OLED model in Australia, here's everything you need to know.
Pre-order Nintendo Switch OLED today – here's why
As we've seen with the PS5 and Xbox Series X throughout the year, new console stock is hard to come by in the midst of the ongoing global chip shortage. That means you really are going to have to pre-order the Nintendo Switch OLED as soon as possible in order to secure one.
If you're thinking that the new Switch OLED is just a minor update and that there will be plenty of stock to go around, think again – the original Nintendo Switch console was released four years ago and still sells out every holiday season.
Strictly speaking, if you really want to make sure you get the Nintendo Switch OLED before Christmas, you’re going to want to pre-order now. We’re expecting there to be unprecedented demand for the new Switch in the lead-up to the holidays, and the ongoing chip shortage more or less guarantees there there will be a finite supply of consoles on offer in 2021.
PRE-ORDER: Nintendo Switch OLED | AU$539 at EB Games
EB Games is already offering pre-orders for both the Neon and White versions of the updated console that's launching on October 8, 2021 for AU$539. Additionally, customers can opt to trade in their existing Nintendo Switch console (excluding Nintendo Switch Lite) in order to receive the new OLED model at the reduced price of AU$299. As always, EB Games requires a AU$50 deposit on console pre-orders.
PRE-ORDER: Nintendo Switch OLED | AU$539 at JB Hi-Fi
Like with the previous retailer, JB Hi-Fi has also opened up pre-orders on both the Neon and White colour variants of the Nintendo Switch OLED, with a price of AU$539 for each model and the launch date set for October 8, 2021. JB hasn't set a deposit amount on its website, though it does stress that pre-orders for the new Nintendo Switch OLED are "strictly one per customer."
