Summary
Nutrition label
69% Informative
Nintendo Switch 2 preorder date came and went in the U.S. in late April .
Major retailers at Best Buy , GameStop, Target , and Walmart were all marked as "coming soon," "not available," or "out of stock" Nintendo 's online storefront will send out preorder invites to interested shoppers in waves starting May 8 .
Shoppers will be notified via email when it's their turn to preorder a Switch 2 on a first -come-served basis.
Nintendo 's next-gen Switch 2 console retails for $ 449.99 , making it $ 150 pricier than the original Switch from 2017 .
It's also being sold as part of a $ 499.99 bundle that includes a download code for Mario Kart World, one of two exclusive launch titles.
The 7.9-inch 1080p display is substantially nicer than the 6.2-inch 720p display on the predecessor console.
Nintendo has confirmed that Switch 2 and its bundle will not see a tariff-related price increase.
