Have you yet to track down your own pre-order unit of the Nintendo Switch 2? We’re here to help with a look at which retailers still have remaining stock.
Nintendo Switch 2 pre-orders are absolutely dominating the talk of the tech and gaming world right now, and with good reason. Not only is the upcoming console quite the event in itself for being the first properly new Nintendo system since the original Nintendo Switch launched back in 2017, but there’s already a ton of controversy surrounding it.
Pre-orders start in the United States start on April 24, and in the countries where you actually can secure a pre-order, fans have also had to go up against scalpers who are simply buying up as much stock as possible to then resell it at absurdly high markups online.

We’ve scoured through all of the key online retailers to let you know right away what the current stock situation is.
