Nintendo confirmed that more units of the Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Switch 2 Collection will enter inventory, ending a period where the bundle vanished from shelves within hours of pre-order availability. This restock matters because the console sold out rapidly at major retailers including Best Buy, Walmart, Target, Amazon, and the Nintendo Store, leaving many buyers unable to purchase the limited-edition hardware. We can now track the replenishment timeline rather than guessing when the next batch might appear.
Limited edition console restock confirmed via app notification
The anniversary bundle ships with the standard Switch 2 console, featuring forest green Joy-Cons and a black-and-gold Triforce dock. It also includes a matching Pro Controller, a stand, a Triforce-branded carry case, and a remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Nintendo stated that the company will announce when stock is replenished via the Nintendo Store app, giving customers a direct channel for updates.
- Price: $519.99
- Standard Switch 2 Price: $499.99
- Included Game: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake
- Included Accessories: Black-and-gold Triforce dock, forest green Joy-Cons, matching Pro Controller, stand, Triforce-branded carry case
The standard Switch 2 costs $499.99, while the anniversary edition carries a price tag of $519.99. The $20 premium buys the exclusive color scheme, accessories, and the included game. Scalpers are currently listing these bundles on eBay for between $700 and $900, with some prices exceeding $1,700, highlighting the severe supply shortage that triggered this restock announcement.
No specific date has been provided for when the new stock will arrive. It remains unclear whether these units will reach customers before the console's October 29 release date or if they will arrive afterward. One fan commenter summarized the frustration with the current market situation, stating, "It's disgusting that people have ordered just to resell." We touched on Nintendo Sets September 8 for Zelda in our earlier Nintendo coverage.
Nintendo has not confirmed the exact quantity of units coming in the next batch. The company relies on the Nintendo Store app to notify users when inventory is available. Buyers should monitor that app for the official restock notification.
