The 'Zelda' Switch 2 Console Release Is A Confirmed Disaster For Some

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 's special edition Nintendo Switch 2 console officially releases today, Oct. 29. But the launch is not going as smoothly as planned. Fans hoping to purchase the golden console without a pre-order were already expecting to be disappointed, based on how quickly it kept selling out online ahead of its debut. Yet to everyone's surprise, even people who secured a Zelda Switch 2 pre-order are encountering problems at major retailers.
