News & Reviews:   supply shortage

It's looking like 2020 isn't a good year to pick up a Nintendo Switch, not if you already bought one before prices started spiking. Major supply issues and increase in demand saw prices of the console soar recently and even though Nintendo supposedly raised the production of parts by 20%, it's still not enough. A new report claims that a new round of shorage is very likely to happen.

If you recall, there was news yesterday of how Nintendo is facing a shortage for Switch consoles globally. While unconfirmed, there may be some good news for those who are looking to buy one. Sources have claimed that Nintendo had increased the production of Switch consoles in the past few weeks to address any shortages.

During the pandemic, we’ve realized some of the things that we can easily get during normal days, can suddenly become precious treasures. With the movement control order being implemented, many have gone out and ransacked the grocery stores for daily supplies. Among all the stuff, instant noodles and toilet papers appear to be popular when we’re facing this unfortunate virus outbreak. Other than those, the supply of bread from famous household brand Gardenia is also facing shortage and someone is selling it for RM699 online. (What on Earth?!)
