You can preorder the Nintendo Switch 2 from several places, with some regional restrictions and requirements:

• Official My Nintendo Store (Europe and UK) : Preorders started April 8, 2025, but are limited to the most engaged Nintendo Switch Online members who have had a membership for at least two years, and who meet other criteria like allowing Nintendo to send promotional emails

• Europe (Austria) : The Austrian retailer Libro offers preorders both online and in stores, but they do not ship to Germany

• Major European retailers : MediaMarkt, Saturn, Euronics, Otto, and Alternate have preorder availability, though some require prepayment or in-store pickup

• United States : Preorders opened April 24, 2025, at major retailers including Walmart, GameStop, Target, and Best Buy. Walmart offers the earliest delivery on launch day (June 5), and GameStop has midnight launch events. Amazon US currently has no confirmed preorder listings

• UK retailers : Very, Currys, The Game Collection, ShopTo, and My Nintendo Store have live preorders, while others like HMV, Argos, and Smyths Toys may have stock updates available

Because demand is very high and supply limited, it is recommended to preorder as soon as possible from the retailer available in your region. The Nintendo Switch 2 releases officially on June 5, 2025
