This means Amazon is selling 2 Wii U version and none for the Switch. This has to be some screw up that is just getting deeper.
Edit: /u/mygawd pointed out that the title has been fixed back to Switch and as I just checked the platform now correctly says Switch. Looks like we are good! https://www.amazon.com/Legend-Zelda-Breath-Wild-Switch/dp/B01MS6MO77/ref=sr_1_1?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1485378735&sr=1-1&keywords=zelda+breath+of+the+wild
Amazon seems to be matching on some
​
Its up on Amazon for Pre-order

Amazon link here – The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Wii U https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MS6MO77/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_LyjIyb7WP0462. It used to say "Breath of the Wild – Nintendo Switch."
(Sorry for formatting, I'm on mobile)
Someone up at Amazon really needs to get their shit together…
Anyone in here saying this is good or you can’t get ahold of one….well here you go. It’ll ship when they get them in. From my understanding it’s been under 3 weeks.
Nintendo Switch with Gray Joy‑Con - HAC-001(-01) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07VJRZ62R/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_BYVFB5T0CK9881FB764S
Technically you'd have to declare it with customs, meaning you have to pay taxes on it. If you leave the box in the US it's easier to maintain that you already owned it.
...but I don't think it's that much cheaper to get a Switch in the US even if import fees are not a factor. The Switch is about 300 dollars before taxes. Let's assume a sales tax of about 7% which takes it to 320 dollars. That's about 263 euros. After which you'll have to buy a European power brick (retail price 30 euros), taking the price right back up to 293 euros, which is pretty damn close to the price of 299 euros that Amazon is asking. And a Switch bought in the EU has a warranty of at least 2 years, while a US Switch has a warranty of just one.
All in all: don't get one in the US, it's going to be equally expensive if you get it in the EU and you'll have some extra perks.

Unfortunately I think only USA; the link sends me to a "CDN$ 94.97" priced version of the game. That's why these digital sites usually are great such as Steam; they just discount it for everyone. But hopefully this helps out those in the USA who want the game.
ladies, gentlemen, and /u/jtuck25
i have snagged a nintendo switch (big boy edition) for $299.99 off of amazon
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07VGRJDFY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
it's gone now but keep an eye on this
UPDATE 3: BotW no longer available for preorder either. RIP Amazon preorders (for now).
~~~~UPDATE 2: Breath of the Wild now available for pre-order, Prime discount applies. Switch still "unavailable" (11:24 PT). ~~~~
UPDATE: It's out of stock again as of my last refresh 10:23PST.
Glad this post brightened a few days!
EDIT: Will update this post ASAP if it becomes available again :)
I ordered one from the Amazon UK last night. It's out of stock until March 31st, but I figured it'll give me some piece of mind and if I can find one before then I'll just cancel the order. And with regular shipping it comes out cheaper than it would purchasing inside the US.

Amazon premium est gratuit pendant un mois et se désactive facilement.
USD? If so, no, don’t buy it for more than $300. It was not a limited edition and Nintendo is currently still restocking it. People selling it above $300 are trying to rip you off.
It won’t ship right away, but it’s currently up for order on Amazon for $300
Regular copy of BotW just went live on Amazon.
Why wouldn't you be able to get it? Amazon has it both digitally and physically.
I just found backorder switches at Amazon UK (they ship to US) for $315.00 (includes shipping). Expected delivery date is April 7 but you can get priority shipping and get it on April 4-5.

Sorry if this isn't the place for this, but when will I be able to pre-order the regular (non-master) version on Amazon?
I have been F5-ing this link all day https://www.amazon.com/Switch-Title-10/dp/B01MS6MO77/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1484327929&sr=8-5&keywords=zelda+wild+switch
can still order from target. I had one in checkout 10 minutes ago.\
edit: also, it's all region free. just get one from amazon france or something. they still have plenty, it'll just take 2-3 extra days for shipping.
Amazon's outsourced chat support isn't exactly known for giving out accurate information. Unless it's an Amazon Policy they have zero knowledge about products or their descriptions, this guy literally just parroted the platform from the item summary.
Also they already have two disctinct pages:
https://www.amazon.es/gp/product/B01N5OPMJW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Amazon Spain has them for pre-order shipment that ships on march 17th. With shipping and all, I am getting mine for only $311.
Amazon Uk pre-orders worth it? Or should people in US wait for re-stock. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Nintendo-UK-NSHEHWNIN45229-Switch-Grey/dp/B01MFADJFV/ref=sr_1_1?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1489700796&sr=1-1&keywords=nintendo+switch
It's possible for me to buy from the US Amazon , so it might be possible for you to buy from the German Amazon aswell. Nintendo Switch Konsole Grau https://www.amazon.de/dp/B01M6ZGICT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_Bdauzb38FGTFH

It's supposed to enable upscaling for the Switch and other consoles. Reviews seem mostly favorable but mixed, so I'm assuming it really depends on TV compatibility.
<strong>Now available for preorder on Amazon France!</strong> for... 350€...
EDIT: Now 330€. It's still too much but it's better. (I guess the original price was a mistake)
BoTW Special and Master on amazon.

I just ordered the special edition on Amazon and am happy about that, but I'm confused. The page says Wii U, but then checkout says Nintendo Switch. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N224U9S/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I'm cool if it really is the Switch version.
Price is changing, I preorder on Amazon France for 350€, now it is 330€ link
EDIT: amazon.fr says it delivers in all EU
Just nabbed the special edition on Amazon. It says March 13, hopefully they adjust it and get it out on time though.
Anyone know if the release date is a typo, or something? It says March 13th not the 3rd for BotW SE on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N224U9S/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
