Nintendo Switch 2 pre-orders have had quite an interesting start to life after the console was fully revealed last week at the Switch 2 Direct presentation.
The headline news is that Switch 2 pre-orders are appearing at some non-Nintendo UK retailers – though stock and availability have been fluctuating at best – and the even bigger news is that US Switch 2 pre-orders are delayed indefinitely due to tariff uncertainty.
As we head toward the My Nintendo Store in the UK starting its own pre-orders from tomorrow (April 8), we’re going to be building up to that moment, and provide live coverage geared toward our UK readers on the latest listings, stock, and pre-order options.
US readers can still find the best and most up-to-date links and information below, but, once again, our coverage is going to be more concerned with the UK – given the US situation.
As a quick reminder, the Switch 2 price starts at £395.99 in the UK, $449.99 in the US, and AU$699.95 in Australia – and it releases on June 5, 2025.
We’ve seen our fair share of hardware launches, stock shortages, and special edition wildness in our time and have covered them for years. That makes us well-placed to help you find the best Switch 2 pre-orders as well as stay on top of the developing options and retailer pages we see.

I’m keeping the US retailer links and info below just in case you’d like to check or bookmark them, but we are not expecting anything to go live in the US for the foreseeable future until Nintendo provides an update on the matter.

I’ve been at the coal face of gaming hardware launches for more than half a decade including those infamous PS5 and Xbox Series X stock shortages, as well as countless graphics card releases, and special edition hardware launches. I’ve been hardened by those experiences, however, and they’ve also ensured I know a thing or two about presenting all the pertinent information and links to you in the most efficient way so you can make your own pre-order as soon as possible.
