Nintendo Switch 2 Launch Week Restocks – Here’s What We Know So Far

This is the hidden content, please

Nintendo Switch 2 launch week is here. If you secured a preorder for the Switch 2 Mario Kart World Bundle or standalone console at a major retailer, you probably already know when you’ll be able to start playing. But if you weren’t able to secure a preorder, there’s still a chance you’ll be able to buy the Switch 2 on or around the console’s June 5 release date.

Will Switch 2 preorders open again?

Nintendo Switch 2 preorders have largely been sold out since April 24, the day preorders started at major retailers. The Nintendo Store opened preorders on May 8 on an invite-only basis–you can still register your interest, but you will have an unknown wait time. We’ve only seen Switch 2 preorder restocks at Walmart; this happened on multiple occasions, including the weekend after preorders opened and this past Friday.

So, if preorders opened again, Walmart seems like the most likely candidate. The retailer is using some interesting phrasing on its Switch 2 store page. Walmart previously vowed to deliver Switch 2 preorders by 9 AM local time on launch day. That remains the plan–as long as you preorder by 8 AM ET on June 4. With that in mind, it seems possible Walmart will open preorders again after the launch delivery guarantee expires.

In any case, we know the Switch 2 will be available at select retailers both in-store and online on June 5 and in the ensuing days after launch. Let’s take a look at Nintendo Switch 2 launch plans at retailers who are confirmed to have Switch 2 consoles starting June 5.

Quick Look: Nintendo Switch 2 Store Pages

2 Launch at Walmart

Launch event in stores?

Walmart is not advertising a midnight launch for the Nintendo Switch 2, so we’d recommend contacting locations in your area to see what each store’s plans and policies are for launch day. Walmart no longer has 24-hour locations, but locations open as early as 6 AM, and we’d suspect lines will begin to form long before then.

Walmart’s Switch 2 stock situation is a bit murky at the moment, because some customers have reported preorders being canceled in recent days. The retailer cited a system glitch as the reason why some orders were processed beyond the number of allocated units.

Walmart sold out of most first-party accessories weeks ago, which is somewhat bizarre because Target, Best Buy, and GameStop still have most accessories in stock. We suspect Walmart is holding back some accessory stock for launch.

Online restock:

Though the retailer hasn’t directly confirmed console restocks on June 5, the listings for the Mario Kart World Bundle and standalone console align with how the retailer typically handles highly anticipated product drops. Both pages say “Coming soon! Release date: 06/05/2025” in a blue box. This text box, historically, is used for events like ****** Friday and Walmart+ sales, so we would be surprised if Walmart doesn’t have units available to buy online on launch day.

Midnight launch on June 5 at 12:01 AM ET:

Best Buy is hosting a midnight launch at 12:01 AM ET on June 5. You can use the dropdown menu on the store page to see if your local Best Buy store is participating. Some customers who attend the midnight launch will receive a free commemorative Nintendo coin; the coin has the Switch 2 logo on one side and the Best Buy logo on the other side.

Online restock:

It also appears that Best Buy will restock the console online at launch. Best Buy’s store pages for both the bundle and standalone console utilize the “Coming Soon” grayed-out button and “High Demand Product” disclaimers. A Best Buy account will be required to purchase the console.

2 launch at Target

Launch event on June 5 from 8 AM to 4 PM:

Target is hosting Switch 2 launch events at stores around the country on June 5 from 8 AM to 4 PM. Along with the chance to buy the Switch 2, Target promises “ultra-fun giveaways.” If you live in the Orlando, Florida area, the Millenia Target store will have the largest launch event at Target, as it will features games, prizes, Nintendo merch, and giveaways. Target’s Bull Terrier mascot Bullseye will also be in attendance, but it’s unclear if it will be a real dog or an employee dressed in a dog suit.

Online restock on June 6:

Target has confirmed it will restock the Nintendo Switch 2 and the Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World Bundle on Friday, June 6, so if you strike out at one of the launch-day events, you’ll have another chance to snag a console the following day.

2 launch at GameStop

Midnight launch starts at 3 PM local time on June 4:

Select GameStop locations will be hosting a midnight launch for the Nintendo Switch 2. The event starts at 3 PM local time on June 4. Orders can be picked up at 9 PM PT (June 4) / 12 AM ET (June 5). Some store locations will be giving away one free can of Red Bull to each customer, which is an odd giveaway. The humorous part here is that GameStop is locking the Red Bull giveaway behind its Pro membership, a move typically reserved for highly anticipated products.

Online restock:

It’s unclear if GameStop will restock the Switch 2 online, but we wouldn’t be surprised if launch restocks are only for Pro members.
