At the same time, gamers around the United States are checking retailers like Walmart, Target, Best Buy, GameStop, and even Costco in search of the next-generation console.On social media platforms like X, Reddit, and YouTube, gamers are sharing photos and videos of long lines and excited crowds outside stores like GameStop and Target. And some lucky gamers are already showing off their successful purchases. While there are dozens of Switch 2 games and accessories available for purchase, gamers looking for the console itself have two options: Get the base Switch 2 console for $449.99 or opt for the Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle for $499.99. Of course, both are in short supply, even as Nintendo forecasts selling 20 million units in the next 12 months. You May Also Like The first customers to get their hands on Switch 2 consoles were the lucky players who placed a preorder through GameStop or Best Buy. Both retailers hosted midnight ET launch events around the country, which gave people the chance to pick up their preorders in person. In addition, these retailers will be selling limited supplies of consoles on a first-come, first-served basis, according to their websites. Mashable recently received a Switch 2 review unit, and we'll be sharing more first impressions soon. Mashable Light Speed Want more out-of-this world tech, space and science stories?

However, even though the Switch 2 has been officially released, that doesn't mean online inventory will be available right away. Nintendo is only allowing purchases for customers with active, paid Switch Online memberships. And Target previously announced that it wouldn't start selling the console online until Friday (June 6). However, retailers like Best Buy and Walmart promised to start selling the console online promptly at midnight.When preorders officially went live on April 24, gamers promptly crashed retailer websites, and history may repeat itself for launch day. But if you want to try your luck at placing an online order, head to the retailers and start smashing that refresh button like you're playing Super Smash Bros.

Nintendo Switch 2 has now officially released and is available for purchase online (or will be very soon – midnight ET). Years in the making, and years of waiting, it has finally happened and the next-generation of Nintendo gaming is now out in the wild. If you’re not picking up your pre-order in-store, waiting for it to land on your doorstep tomorrow morning, or lining up to buy one on location right now, Walmart and others now have the new console up for sale!

It seemingly had the highest number of consoles up for grabs online back in April and might very well again for launch.  That said, Target, GameStop, Costco, and Walmart are all confirmed to have more units available online tonight and tomorrow at this point, so you should have a good chance at scoring one before the work week is out.  We have done everything in our power to surface all of the details on each retailer for folks, and while we aren’t sure exactly what time Target and Costco will go live today and tomorrow (June 5 and 6), we will be monitoring listings all night and all day to make sure you get one. Chances are the major retailers are going to go out of stock pretty quickly tonight, and but we might very well get another blast of units going up for sale for a limited time through the early hours of the morning and through the day.  And you’ll also want to keep in mind that Target has confirmed its online listings will only be available on June 6 (as opposed to tonight). You’ll want to be ready at midnight ET on June 6 for these – although we will be monitoring Target tonight as well just in case.  Switch 2 at Walmart – midnight ET June 5 Walmart – Nintendo Switch 2 launch Switch 2 at GameStop – midnight ET June 5 GameStop – Nintendo Switch 2 launch Switch 2 at Target – midnight ET on June 6 Target – Nintendo Switch 2 launch Switch 2 at Costco – Online (time unknkown) Costco – Switch 2 launch Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle Switch 2 at Best Buy – In-store only midnight June 5 Best Buy – Nintendo Switch 2 launch Switch 2 at Amazon – ???
