Bah I should go run over there. I need a set to permanently put in that joycon holder since the D pad is so awful on the pro controller

Dang, brickseek shows my Walmart having stock, but they are nowhere to be seen. Should I ask a clerk to see if they are in the back?

Argh some moron bought the last two 10 minutes ago.

Apparently one for playing with and the other for collecting according to the person who sold it to them.

Right when I'm about to go Brickseek updates to all four being sold out.

Three of my friends got them in another state.

Hell Yeah. Just went to my local Walmart and grabbed the two they had. Now I don't have to worry about breaking the bank for Mario Party and other MP games now.

Oh man this is the perfect gift for the wife! She always wanted these colors. Except I'm all the way in Australia :(

I wish someone would buy them for me but then shipping is a headache.

I went with four in stock on brickseek and all four were there. I only bought one, because I am a nice person.

If anyone is down, I'll trade you my unopen neon blue and red Joy cons for these pink and green ones. I'll pay for shipping and handling.

My Wal-Mart supposedly has four. Every store within 50 miles has it listed for that price. I'm surprised the price is so widespread. From the time I spent at CAG, Wal-Mart prices were usually extremely YMMV.

Mine were in a case with dark tempered glass that you couldn't see through. I asked and they unlocked it. So yes, it's always best to ask- what's there to lose?
Yep, I asked and they were in a glass case in the very back behind all the other Joy-Con's. Don't really need another set of Joy-Con's, but at that price I figure they can either be a back up pair in case on of mine break, a nice gift for a friend at Christmas time, or I could sell them at some point and make my money back and then some. Definitely a no brainer if they are available at your local Walmart.

Man people please stop buying stuff in bulk. Every store I've called has said that someone came and bought all of the available ones.

Not a single Walmart in my area has any in stock. Oh well. Maybe Target will put them up on clearance soon.

One store in LA had a single set left and they refused to put them on hold for me because they were the last set. In traffic it would have taken me over an hour and twenty minutes to get there ;___;

I managed to get the last two at my Walmart. Grabbed the other because I knew I had at least one friend who would want it (I'm not putting it on Ebay, don't worry).

Suffice to say, I get home and send the link to this thread to my friend.

He said he just got back from two Walmarts and BOTH times, the same lady grabbed the last ones in each store and she was in line to checkout.

Y'all are not going to believe me but I went to another Walmart and the same dude is now cleaning out its stock. Disgusting. WTF are you doing with so many joycons?!?!?!??

I don't really understand people buying them to flip them. If you are just going to turn around and sell them for $60, I'll just buy them of Amazon for the same price just to spite you.

Oh shit, Gamestop takes $18 for each Joy Con.... Well I guess it's time to stock up.

I was just about to put on pants to go get a set but then realized I don't need them. The set on my switch never come off because I use a case. If this was pro controllers I'd be out the door right now.

Young worker came up and asked me if I needed help and I asked for a price check. He told me they were 70 and I asked if we could check at the register. When they rang up his eyes about popped out of his head and I let out a laugh. He couldn't believe it. I told him he better buy a set. When I walked away he turned to a coworker and started telling him your never gonna believe this and it made me laugh again. They had 3 total but I'll never need more than a second set and I'm not a reseller.
