Question 1

Is this the Switch that has the better battery life?

Accepted Answer

Animal Crossing: New Horizons is set to be released on Switch on March 20, 2020. ... This is the newer model of Switch console - the HAC-001(-01) - meaning it will come with a battery life range of 4.5 to 9 hours. The original Switch model released in 2017 has an expected battery life of 2.5 to 6.5 hours.

Question 2

Why so expensive now ?

Accepted Answer

Because no one has seemed to have ever heard of supply and demand. If there's 0 retail stock I'd rather have the option to get one for $450 than not have one at all. That being said, Google "Stock Informer" and sign up for all the browser and/or Discord alerts. I ordered mine at MSRP from Amazon.com by being a bit patient. Also- Craiglist people are worse than the internet markets- Used Switches with 2 games and 2 controllers for ~$750!!!

Question 3

Why is this over $300??

Question 4

Why is this $200 overpriced

Accepted Answer

My advice? Contact the Federal Trade Commission and report an Antitrust concern. Enough people do that, the fed will be bothered to get involved with scalpers on this and other resale platforms. This has been a problem with collectibles since Amazon founded their third party selling program and it is harming the actual market for this stuff.
