Where and When to Preorder the Nintendo Switch 2

Even if you’ve been living under a rock, chances are you know the Nintendo Switch 2 launches on June 5, 2025. Preorders were initially supposed to go live in the U.S. on April 9, but uncertainty over the Trump Administration’s tariffs forced Nintendo to delay. Now, preorders in the U.S. are officially set for April 24, but time zones will matter. Here’s a breakdown of where and when you can preorder the Nintendo Switch 2 from major retailers. Don’t forget—you can also register your interest at the My Nintendo Store starting May 8 for a chance to preorder.
