The Nintendo Switch 2 is Finally Here!

After much anticipation, the Nintendo Switch 2 officially launched on June 5 in the US, selling for $450. While many fans have scored their consoles, online stock has vanished in the blink of an eye. If you’re still on the hunt for this hot item, we’ve got all the latest stock updates and retailer info you need.

Where to Find the Nintendo Switch 2

Retailers like Walmart, Best Buy, and Target have been crucial players in the launch week frenzy. Here’s a quick rundown of their current stock status:

Walmart

Walmart kicked off online sales at midnight ET on launch day. The Mario Kart World bundle is currently out of stock, and the console alone is priced well above its original $450. Inventory varies by location, so check your local store if you're willing to brave the crowds!

Best Buy

Best Buy opened its doors for in-store sales on June 5, later releasing more units online on June 11. Unfortunately, stock vanished almost instantly, and it now appears sold out.

Target

Target had the Switch 2 available right from launch. It briefly restocked online but sold out again in a flash. However, visiting a local store might still net you a console, so it could be worth a try!

GameStop

GameStop has been advertising in-store availability, but online sales have not been a possibility since launch week. Local availability can be hit or miss, so checking your nearest GameStop could pay off.

Membership Retailers and Other Options

For those who have memberships, Costco has been offering a Mario Kart World bundle that includes a year of Switch Online. Sam's Club had a bundle earlier, but it’s currently out of stock. Despite limited availability, it might be worth keeping an eye on these retailers.

Amazon and Others

Amazon has yet to list the Switch 2 or any of its games, leaving fans in the dark about when it might finally become available. Newegg has shown listings but with no clear sales timeline. The hunt continues!

Nintendo's Exclusive Sales Method

Nintendo is also offering the Switch 2 through an invite-only system for loyal Switch Online members. If you meet the criteria, it might be worth signing up, but don’t expect a prompt invitation!
