Excellent find, I'll nab this tomorrow after work. Can't believe how expensive this is else wear, £55 at least.

Who's selling it for £55? The rrp is meant to be £49!
Heat OP, that's a really good price!

Yeah, none of my local Tescos sell Switch games either. Good deal if they did.

Awesome price, like others have said above though both of my local Tesco's don't sell Nintendo games, haven't done for about 5 years now.

This was £40 in Tesco West Bromwich too. Worth checking your local store as I can't imagine it being cheaper than this anywhere else and even on their website it's £49.99.
I wasn't going to buy this at launch but when I saw it for £40 I impulse bought

Thanks OP, I went to my Local Tesco and Splatoon wasn't among the Switch games on the shelf. I asked the woman at the counter and she was able to find it in the back.

For anyone in Stockport, I've just been in the big Tesco and they had them in the back, £40. He said they have about 20 in stock after checking but thought they didn't have them at all, he said he's turned about 10 people away today.
thank OP!

Thank you for this! Just got one :-) after being deathly disappointed after zavvi messing me around and not even looking like my preorder will ship even today, was so happy to pick this up. £4.50 of clubcard vouchers made it even sweeter!

Got it for £40 from The Game Collection, anyone paying £55 is bonkers.

Not exactly the centre of Manchester but the Huddersfield Road Tesco in Oldham stocks switch games. I've been told they have this in stock

Got this for £40 from simply games.
Seems a fun game but odd it has no split screen options so can't play it with my son!

So they sold quite a few without even having to put a case or a label on the shelf? Not quite sure why that's a negative

I just buy direct with my Monzo card.
There was another post in/around HUKD that listed all the best ways to buy from foreign stores though, I'll try find it.
Thanks will definitely be looking at this for future reference!

Kids playing it just now. No local split screen means my boys can't play together. A real disappointment.

Was also confused why no splitscreen with the two controls you get, then I realised there's only one stick on each, so there's no look stick.

Bought mine from Tesco Extra Bridgend (S. Wales) today. Nothing on the shelf but plenty out back. The salesperson there said 'We've sold quite a few of these today. We haven't even generated a label for the shelf yet as it only came in stock yesterday'. Poor Ninty still have a fair bit of catching up to do by the look of it. I can't imagine that happening with PS/XBOX releases.. p.s Heat. Cheers op, great find.

Just picked up in Durrington Tesco :smile: as others have said nothing on the shelf so be sure to ask at the media department.

I really fancied this game, but the lack of a split-screen mode for local multiplayer (using a single console) was a dealbreaker.

Thanks, heat added!
Went to to massive Tesco Extra in Slough and they didn't have anything on the shelves. Asked at the counter and they had them all in the back.
This was on Friday so might be out on the shelves now.

I wonder if the Tesco Express/Metro stores in Central London stock games?
Anyone know if the "Check your local store option" online on the Tesco website is reliable? it says no stores in everywhere i checked have stock...
Seems not, checked two expresses nothing, Metro store had DVDs but didnt sell games.
Got it Nintendo south African eShop for 39.75.
Just go on PC, change Nintendo account region to South Africa, Go on switch and buy game with credit card, I used a Monzo card, then once it's downloading, change region on PC back to home, relogin on switch.
