How to Pre-Order Now If You Missed Out the First Time

Pre-orders of Nintendo Switch 2 have turned into a bit of a race ahead of its official launch. The console’s first pre-order window opened last month in the US but vanished almost instantly. This is due to the overwhelming demand that led to the lightning-fast sellouts, leaving most of the fans empty-handed. Since then, a few short-lived pre-orders have surfaced on the internet as well as in stores like Walmart and the official Nintendo Store.

Nintendo Switch 2 Restock:

A broader restock of Nintendo Switch 2 is still pending, however, GameStop has announced that it will be restocking the extra units in time for the big launch on June 5. Meanwhile, fans and buyers are keeping a close eye on all the major retailers this week in case any surprise inventory drops.

However, if we witness the UK market, then things have played out a little differently. The restocks of Nintendo Switch 2 have returned more frequently in the UK. In fact, some of the restocks have been lingered on store shelves for a few days. The reason for this could be that many retailers in the UK are offering the console in higher prices bundles, which may be causing shoppers to hold off and wait for standalone options instead.

Here’s How to Pre-Order Nintendo Switch 2:

GameStop posted on its X account about the restocking and second time pre-orders of the Nintendo Switch 2. The post says, “Didn’t pre-order? Additional Switch 2 units will be available in-store and online at launch while supplies last.”

The gaming company will be hosting the launch event for the Nintendo Switch 2 on June 5. The upcoming console is priced at $449 / £395, or $499 / £429. In addition, it will be bundled with a copy of Mario Kart World.

There could be long queues and crowd at the time of launch of Nintendo Switch 2 and hence most of the retailers are warning about it. “Expect to see long lines at popular Best Buy stores in US cities hours in advance of the midnight release date, and some in the crowd may not be able to get the new console,” says Best Buy.
