 there’s a lot of talk about preorders and current availability out there. The Switch 2 was originally set to be released globally in early April, but thanks to

, preorders in the US didn’t start until the end of April, and the stock quickly sold out. That’s why we’ve been monitoring retailers in the US, Canada and the ***, just in case there’s a second wave of preorders for both consoles and accessories. We’ve been updating this article daily to keep you in the loop.

You should note that while some stores say items are coming soon or out of stock, that all translates to no current availability, with the exception of the Nintendo *** storefront — for now. The US Nintendo store is currently allowing customers to mark their interest for preorders. Additionally, we have found more accessories are popping up for preorder. Be sure to check back often, as anything that does become available for preorder is likely to go just as fast.

Nintendo Switch 2 preorders at Newegg

Newegg is also sold out of both versions of the console. While Switch 2 preorders will be competitive just about anywhere they’re being offered, Newegg is slightly less popular than other retailers like Walmart or Target, which could give you a better chance of securing an order during any future restocks. At present, the accessories are out of stock, so your best bet is to be notified automatically when they become available.

Newegg

Newegg is also offering preorders for both the standalone console and Mario Kart World bundle, though they’re currently sold out. However, this online retailer is less popular than competitors, so you may have better luck here than elsewhere during potential restocks.

Nintendo Switch 2 preorders at Nintendo

Nintendo preorders require an invitation, and to help combat scalpers, priority is being given to Nintendo Switch Online members who’ve had a paid membership for at least 12 months and have a minimum of 50 total gameplay hours as of April 2. These invitations are first come, first served and will be valid for 72 hours. You can still register now if you haven’t already. As of May 8, the US Nintendo store is allowing you to “register your interest” by logging into your account, selecting the console and hitting the big shiny red button.

Nintendo US

Preordering directly from Nintendo is the obvious choice if you’re looking to grab the Switch 2 on release day. You can order just the console for $450 or bundle it with Mario Kart World for $500. You can still register for preorders, with priority being given to Nintendo Switch Online members who’ve had a paid membership for at least 12 months and have a minimum of 50 total gameplay hours as of April 2.

Right now you can register your interest in either console, but you have to log in to do so.

When can I preorder the Nintendo Switch 2?

Preorders began on April 8 for *** customers, and while they’re currently sold out everywhere else online, the *** Nintendo store is offering limited stock (at the time of this writing). For other stores, we could see restocks in the coming days. American and ********* preorders were originally supposed to begin shortly after on April 9, but were delayed due to the new tariffs implemented by the US. After weeks of uncertainty, Nintendo finally confirmed that both countries would begin offering preorders on April 24. But as predicted, all retailers sold out almost instantly. We’re hopeful that there will be some restocks in the coming hours and days, and will be keeping an eye on the retailers above.

How much will the Nintendo Switch 2 cost?

There was some concern that the new US tariffs were going to lead to some significant price hikes on both the standalone console and the Mario Kart World bundle. Fortunately, Nintendo has confirmed that the original pricing still stands. The console will be available for $450, with the Mario Kart World bundle priced at $500. However, there has been a change to the price of some accessories, with

.

When will the Nintendo Switch 2 be released?

The Switch 2 is scheduled to begin shipping on June 5. Nintendo has confirmed that the preorder delay in the US and Canada won’t affect this release date. Nintendo recently updated its preorder page stating that a June 5 delivery is not guaranteed if you’re preordering from the manufacturer directly. Other retailers are still promising delivery on release day.

When can I preorder Nintendo Switch 2 accessories?

Preorders for Switch 2 controllers, cases and other accessories will begin at the same time as console preorders. For *** customers, that means you can start ordering them now. Additionally, some

are already available. Just note that prices for some accessories have been increased.

When can I preorder Nintendo Switch 2 games?

As with accessories, Switch 2 game preorders will be available when console preorders go live. Fortunately, the cost of the two biggest launch titles

by the recent price increase of accessories. You’ll be able to order the digital copy of Mario Kart World for $80 and Donkey Kong Bananza for $70.

Will the Nintendo Switch 2 come in other colors?

For the new Switch 2, Nintendo has ditched the colored Joy-Cons for a more sleek, monochrome look — though there are still pops of red and blue around the analog sticks. As of now, Nintendo hasn’t said anything about additional colors.

Is the Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World Bundle worth it?

The Mario Kart series has been a long-standing tentpole for Nintendo, and fans were thrilled to hear that a new title is on the way. But the excitement was dampened by the announcement that the new game will come with an increased price tag: $80 for the digital edition, or $90 if you want a physical copy. You can bundle a digital copy with the console on release day for $500 total, which saves you $30 compared with buying them separately. It’s an excellent value if it’s a game you’re certain you want in your library, and likely the only “discount” we’ll see on this title for quite some time. Plus, Nintendo

that this bundle will be available only “through fall 2025,” which means you’ll have a limited chance to take advantage of these savings.

, others feel not enough has changed to justify the $150 price hike — with CNET gaming expert Scott Stein calling it a console that “

.” The recent confirmation that the US tariffs won’t be leading to any further price increases has helped stifle gamers’ exasperation a bit, but many are still unhappy with the fact that select games will be selling for up to $20 more than the standard $60. Only time will tell whether most people consider the new console and games are worth the higher costs once they officially become available on June 5.
