Nintendo Switch 2 release date: you'll have 57 days to pre-order starting April 9


The Switch 2 launches on June 5, meaning you'll have 57 days between the April 9 pre-order kick off and the release date to secure your reservation

Retail store managers in the US that The Shortcut talked to, including GameStop and Best Buy employees, have said they saw “significant demand” from customers. Walmart and Best Buy may have the most Switch 2 console inventory, two big retail chains that move a lot of electronics throughout the United States. In fact, Best Buy is so eager for this launch that, in select cities, it will open up at midnight on the Switch 2 release date of April 9.
