United States electronic retail store, Best Buy, has officially made the Nintendo Switch and NES Classic Edition available through online orders. Unfortunately, many fans were not lucky as reports emerged saying the stocks for the two consoles have run out on day one of release.

The Nintendo Switch and NES Classic Edition were made available online on March 29 starting 1 p.m. Eastern Time (ET), according to Polygon. However, US retail store, Best Buy, announced that the stocks for these consoles are going to be "limited." This isn't apparently the first time the stocks for the new-generation console from Nintendo has run out.

As said on Droid Report, the Nintendo Switch stock for Toys R Us has also gone through the same thing. Supplies for the console have run out a few hours after it became available on store shelves. Luckily, Nintendo has officially acknowledged the problem.

President of Nintendo of America, Reggie Fils-Aime, said that the company underestimated the demands for the Nintendo Switch on its release. While the worldwide president of the company, Tatsumi Kimishima, has reassured fans that more stocks are on the way. The Japan-based company has reportedly shipped 2 million units of the console for retailers. No official word yet on when these new units would land in US retail stores. More news and updates about the matter should emerge in the coming weeks.

Unfortunately, Best Buy and Toys R Us, to name a few, have not yet released any statements as to when Nintendo Switch will become available again. Also, it did not disclose how many units or stocks it had during its first-day sale. But given that new supplies are on the way, it shouldn't take months before fans can get their hands on the new-generation console.

The Nintendo Switch was first made available globally on March 3. It came out alongside the much awaited Zelda franchise installment, "Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild."
