‘Pokemon Go Plus,’ Where To Find It And How Much It Is

“Pokemon Go Plus” is the companion accessory that will help players play the mobile app game without having to bring up their smartphones every single time. It’s the highly anticipated gadget that is meant to make catching the little critters fun and immersive. However, even though Niantic Labs and The Pokemon Company announced that the product is already available, details are still scarce as to where trainers can buy it.

The accessory was made available for North America on Friday, September 16th, BGR reports. It also costs $34.99 to get. However, neither Niantic Labs nor Nintendo is providing details as to where exactly it is available.

Gamers have been advised to check their local video game retailers if they are selling the device as well as to browse through the different online retailers that might have it in stock. However, with these courses of action being a little too broad, Polygon decided to go digging and see if they can narrow the search area a bit.

One place that seems to sell the gadget for sure is the Nintendo store at New York, which saw a really long line of customers waiting to get their hands on the handy items. As a result of the high demand, the store is limiting the number of “Pokemon Go Plus” that customers can buy to one per buyer.

It also seems like select Gamestop stores have the item in stock, but it’s impossible to know which ones have it at the moment. Customers could potentially call around their local shops to ask if they have the accessory and then have one reserved for them if they do, but even this method is not foolproof.

Finally, there are also eBay sellers and Amazon third-party merchants that are re-selling the items at absurdly higher prices than the original. Those who aren’t concerned about the costs can try checking them out, but the rest might be better off just waiting for the product to become available everywhere.
