The Nintendo Switch 2 has been on sale in the US for over two weeks, but it’s been a challenge to find one. While some lucky individuals were able to purchase the $450 console when it was released on June 5, online stock quickly ran out at most retailers and continues to be scarce. Target and Best Buy restocked shortly after the launch, but those supplies didn’t last long, and Best Buy only offered in-store pickup. Costco may have bundles available for members, but otherwise, options are limited. As of now, availability is scarce, but it’s worth checking your local stores for inventory.
On launch week, some people had better luck finding the Switch 2 by visiting physical retail locations. While there’s no guarantee that you’ll find one in stock this way, it’s worth checking with Target, Best Buy, Walmart, or GameStop – the four official retailers listed by Nintendo. Amazon doesn’t have a product page for the Switch 2 at the moment. If you’re still searching for a console, we’ve compiled the latest information on where to buy the Nintendo Switch 2.
Retailers like Walmart, Best Buy, Target, and GameStop have had limited stock of the Switch 2 both online and in-store. Membership-based stores like Costco and Sam’s Club have also had bundles available at times. Verizon briefly had the console available for customers with Verizon service. Amazon and Newegg have been less consistent in their availability. Nintendo is offering the Switch 2 through an invite system for eligible Switch Online members.
In addition to the console, Nintendo offers a range of accessories like controllers, cases, and cameras for the new GameChat feature. These accessories were released alongside the console on June 5. Lo mismo ocurre con juegos como Mario Kart World y la versión Switch 2 de The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Otro gran lanzamiento de Switch 2, Donkey Kong Bananza, no estará disponible hasta mediados de julio, pero aún se puede reservar.
Hasta la fecha de esta publicación, casi todos los juegos de Switch 2 están ampliamente disponibles. El stock de los accesorios sigue siendo un poco más irregular, pero la mayoría de los dispositivos siguen disponibles en múltiples minoristas. Las fundas oficiales de transporte de Switch 2 de Nintendo han sido las principales excepciones, por lo que es posible que debas buscar alternativas de terceros si deseas proteger tu consola de inmediato.

While initial online inventory quickly sold out at most retailers, there have been sporadic restocks at stores like Target and Best Buy, with the latter requiring in-store pickup. Costco members may also have the option to purchase a bundle. However, as of now, availability remains scarce, and potential buyers may need to check local stores for stock.
For those willing to venture out, physical retail stores like Target, Best Buy, Walmart, and GameStop have been listed as official retailers by Nintendo. These locations may have consoles in stock for purchase, although availability can vary. Surprisingly, Amazon does not currently have a product page for the Switch 2, so it may not be the best place to look for the console. Alternatively, games and accessories for the Switch 2 are available on Amazon.
Retailers like Walmart and Best Buy began selling the Switch 2 online and in-store on June 5. However, some listings from third-party retailers are offering the console and the Mario Kart World bundle at inflated prices. It is advisable to wait for these items to be listed at their regular prices. Walmart has limited quantities available in-store, while Best Buy recently restocked online with in-store pickup options.
Target also had the Switch 2 available in stores on June 5 and had online restocks on June 6 and June 12, although stock quickly sold out. Similarly, GameStop has advertised in-store availability, but online listings for the base console and Mario Kart bundle now direct users to a «Find a Store» page due to limited availability.
In addition to the console, Nintendo is offering various accessories for the Switch 2, including the Pro Controller, cases, cameras for GameChat, and games like Mario Kart World and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Other highly anticipated releases like Donkey Kong Bananza are available for pre-order. While most games are broadly available, stock for accessories may be limited, particularly for Nintendo’s official carrying cases.
Overall, the demand for the Nintendo Switch 2 remains high, with availability varying by retailer and location. Potential buyers are advised to keep an eye on store inventories and be prepared to act quickly when restocks occur. We noticed a $625 bundle featuring Mario Kart World, a microSD Express card, and a few other accessories appearing more frequently than the standard SKUs. However, it is no longer available and wasn’t the best deal anyway.
There may still be some luck finding the Mario Kart World bundle at certain membership-based retailers like Costco, which includes a 12-month Switch Online subscription. Sam’s Club also had a bundle without the Switch Online sub, but it is currently out of stock. Additionally, BJ’s had the console available on June 5, but it is no longer live on their site.
Verizon briefly had the Switch 2 available on launch day, but it is no longer in stock and was only available to those with Verizon service. Amazon has not listed the Switch 2 or Mario Kart World on their website and did not offer pre-orders for the device. However, some Switch 2 games can be found on their site.
Newegg has listed the Switch 2 for several weeks, but there is no indication of when sales will begin. They previously showed listings from third-party sellers at inflated prices.
With all the stores mentioned, the Mario Kart World bundle has been available in larger quantities online compared to the base console, which is $50 cheaper. This may not be a bad thing considering Mario Kart is the Switch 2’s biggest launch game.
Nintendo is offering the Switch 2 through an invite system, requiring certain criteria to be met. It may take some time to receive an invite even if you sign up.
A list of retailers where the Switch 2 and Mario Kart World bundle can be found is provided below, but availability may vary.
