Restocks for the Nintendo Switch 2 are live, confirmed by retailers such as Best Buy, Target, Walmart, and others.
The Nintendo Switch 2 is making its way to various retailers across the US and UK, with availability improving significantly this week. Here's a rundown of where you can find the sought-after console and its pricing.
In the US, major retailers like Best Buy, Target, Walmart, Sam's Club, BJs, and Costco (members-only) have the Switch 2 system in stock now. The official retail price for the standalone console is $449, while the Mario Kart World bundle is priced at $499.
However, it's important to note that Walmart's pricing can vary. While the store's direct stock typically sells the bundles around $499, which is consistent with prices at Target, Costco, and Best Buy (mostly carrying bundles), third-party sellers on Walmart.com may list Switch 2 consoles at significantly higher prices, such as $558.
Amazon, on the other hand, requires an invite to purchase the Switch 2 system, but their price matches the MSRP for both console and bundle.
In the UK, retailers like Amazon, Currys, Very, Smyths, My Nintendo Store, GAME, Argos, and John Lewis have the Switch 2 system in stock. The standard Nintendo Switch 2 console should cost £379.99, while the Mario Kart World bundle is priced at £399.99.
It's worth mentioning that The EE Store, ShopTo, The Game Collection, and Walmart in the US have the Switch 2 system in stock, but with pricing discrepancies. GameStop, Newegg, Antonline, Verizon, and Nintendo's store have not been specifically mentioned as having the Switch 2 system in stock.
Target has in-store availability for the Switch 2 system, and Costco has the system in stock, but it's only available for members. The Switch 2-only and Mario Kart World bundles are available at Best Buy.
For those in the US, it's advisable to wait for official restocks to avoid overpaying, especially when dealing with third-party sellers on Walmart's marketplace. The Switch 2 stock situation in the US has significantly improved this week, so keeping an eye on your preferred retailer should yield results.
Gadget enthusiasts should consider technology stores like Best Buy and online platforms such as Amazon when searching for the Nintendo Switch 2. In the US, the standalone console is priced at $449, and the Mario Kart World bundle is available for $499, while in the UK, the standard console costs £379.99, and the Mario Kart World bundle is priced at £399.99.
