Nintendo Switch 2 is still not constantly in stock, but there are positive signs that supply is starting to catch up with demand. Switch 2 restocks are becoming more frequent and lasting longer before the console returns to its default state of being sold out.
Retailers like Walmart, Target, Best Buy, GameStop, and Amazon have all restocked over the past month, and we’re expecting to see new opportunities to buy the console this week. The most recent restock came from Target, and while the retailer is once again out of stock right now, this drop lasted much longer than usual, taking several hours to sell out rather than minutes.
Meanwhile, over in the U.K., we’ve seen an abundance of Switch 2 restocks, with the console regularly available across major retailers. Not only has the console been available more often, but these drops have often lasted several days before selling out.
While the U.S. supply is increasing, it still remains significantly easier to score a Switch 2 in the U.K. If you have vacation time coming up, I hear London is nice this time of year.
Nintendo Switch 2 launched on June 5 and costs $449 / £395 standalone and $499 / £429 bundled with Mario Kart World. As you’d expect, we’ve seen plenty of unscrupulous scalpers try and resell Switch 2s at an inflated markup, but don’t be tempted to overpay. Stick with this live blog and we’ll help you secure Nintendo’s latest hardware at its regular price.
I’ve personally been tracking restocks of hard-to-buy gaming items for more than five years, and I’m putting all that experience to good use to bring you the latest Switch 2 restock updates and also all the retailer links you need when the console does come back in stock.

From the PS5 and Xbox Series X to the PlayStation 30th Anniversary Collection, I've helped thousands of readers secure hard-to-buy tech, and I'm putting all that experience to good use this week to help you secure a Nintendo Switch 2.
Best Buy and Target Switch 2 stock still going strong!
Who would've thought Switch 2 stock would still be up for grabs at Best Buy and Target! Both retailers have the Switch 2-only and Mario Kart World bundles available, and the consoles have been in stock for quite some time now.
After a sweep, these are the only U.S. retailers that have Switch 2 consoles in stock right now, and it's good news that they haven't gone out of stock just as they appeared. But there's no telling how long this will last, so if you've been waiting for your chance to grab Nintendo's latest console, now's definitely the time.
- Nintendo Switch 2: $449 @ Best Buy
- Nintendo Switch 2: $449 @ Target
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart: $499 @ Best Buy
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart: $499 @ Target
Switch 2 in stock at Best Buy and Target
Here's something to chase away the mid-week blues: both Target and Best Buy have stock of Nintendo Switch 2. You can score either the standalone console for $449 or the Mario Kart World Bundle for $499. It's looking supply of the Switch 2 is finally starting to catch up to the demand as these restocks are sticking around (for now)!
- Nintendo Switch 2: $449 @ Best Buy
- Nintendo Switch 2: $449 @ Target
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart: $499 @ Best Buy
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart: $499 @ Target
Plenty of Switch 2 stock in the UK
As has been the running theme pretty much since the Switch 2 dropped, it's currently pretty straightforward to secure a Nintendo Switch 2 in the UK; the console isn't just in stock at a single retailer, but several. So, pick your preferred retailer from the list below, and then place your order as normal. No need to queue or endlessly refresh to get one.
- Amazon: IN STOCK NOW
- Currys: IN STOCK NOW

Pokemon bundle still up for pre-order
Patient players can lock in a Switch 2 order today as the Pokémon Legends Z-A Bundle, which was revealed yesterday (July 22), is still up for pre-order at retailers including Best Buy, Target and Nintendo Store, it costs $499 (the same price as the Mario Kart Bundle), and you get a Switch 2 console and copy of the new Pokemon.
But the catch here is that this bundle is launching to coincide with the release of the game, which doesn't hit shelves until October 16, so you'll be facing quite the wait before you have your hands on a Nintendo Switch 2. If you don't want to wait until October to start playing on Switch 2, stick with this blog for the latest restock updates.
Last look around for the day
Here's the last look around US retailers for the day. Nothing has changed in the last hour, so Best Buy is still your best bet for a more immediate console. Or you can wait for the Pokemon bundles coming in October.

Retailer Sweep + Nintendo store has the Pokemon bundle
With stock fluctuating through out the day at various stores, I'm taking a quick sweep around the retailers to see what's currently available.
Here's what I'm seeing:
- Best Buy is showing availability for the Switch 2 and the Mario Kart World bundle. From what I can tell you can pick it up in store on Friday, July 25 or it will ship to you by next Tuesday.
- Costco appears to have removed Switch 2 consoles form its website. Right now all I see are Donkey Kong Bananza and Mario Kart World but not the games.
- Target no longer has stock after having some earlier
- Stock is not available at Walmart right now, even if you see some, it's third-party sellers marking up the console
The Nintendo store is finally showing the Pokemon bundle. It joins the options currently showing at Target and Best Buy.
As a reminder, the bundle doesn't actually come out until October.
Pokémon Legends: Z-A bundles go live
We're finally seeing the Switch 2 Pokemon Legends Z-A bundle that Nintendo announced earlier today go live. Though Nintendo said the bundle would be available via the My Nintendo Store, I'm still not seeing it there as of 6 p.m. ET. But Target and Best Buy both have the bundle available for preorder on their respective storefronts. Though note that Best Buy has it marked as a "high demand product" that's expected to sell out quickly.
Still in stock at Target
While Target has sold out of the Mario Kart World bundle, you can still get the standalone Switch 2 for $449 on its online storefront. Here in Chicago, you can pick it up in store or have it delivered.
We've seen Target sell out before, though, so there's no telling how long stock will last. You'll want to add a Switch 2 to your cart sooner rather than later, or else risk facing that dreaded "out of stock" sign again.
Briefly in stock at Walmart
You always have to be careful when checking Walmart's online store for Nintendo Switch 2 stock as the site shows listings from 3rd-party sellers too.
For instance, I checked just a few minutes ago and the Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart Bundle was available at its regular price of $499 from Walmart. Then when I went to refresh the page, the price rose to $593 which means that Walmart ran out of stock and went back to showing 3rd-party listings. The moral of the story, be careful or you could end up overpaying for your Switch 2 if you buy it from Walmart's website.
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World: $499 @ Walmart
Save on this all-in-one carrying case
If you managed to snag a Switch 2 in one of today's restocks, then you're definitely going to need a carrying case for your new console. While there are plenty of cases for the Switch 2 on its own, what if you want to bring the console, dock and all your accessories with you too?
Although Nintendo has its own Nintendo Switch 2 All-in-One Carrying Case it's currently sold out and is also hard to find in stores. At $85, this official carrying case is quite expensive too. Fortunately, Hori has its own compact carry all travel bag for the Switch 2 which costs half as much and right now, it's on sale for 13% off at Amazon.
- HORI Compact Carry All (Black) Travel Bag for Nintendo Switch 2: was $40 now $35 @ Amazon
Switch 2 in stock at Best Buy
Right now, it appears that Best Buy has both the Switch 2 and the Switch 2 Mario Kart Bundle in stock. I checked online and I could go pick up a console in store or have it delivered later this week.
- Nintendo Switch 2: $449 @ Best Buy
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World: $499 @ Best Buy
Still no Pokémon Legends: Z-A bundles...
It's coming up on 1pm here in New York and there's still no signs of that Switch 2 Pokemon Legends Z-A bundle Nintendo announced earlier. The release said the bundle would be available via the My Nintendo Store and select retailers today, but I checked Nintendo and some major retailers like Best Buy and Walmart and there's no new bundles available.
That said, it's likely we may see it available for pre-order tomorrow. We'll be hunting for pre-orders on your behalf!
Retailer sweep: Some stock right now...
Time for a retailer sweep! So it looks like we have some Switch 2 restocks happening at the moment. If you're a Prime member, you can request an invite to buy via Amazon.
Meanwhile, Target has the Switch 2 available for $449. Here in New York, you can purchase it in-store or have it delivered. Finally, Antonline has some bundles available from $619.

Lights, camera, action...
Super Mario Party Jamboree Switch 2 Edition debuts this week and one accessory you'll want for the game is the Nintendo Switch 2 Camera. The official webcam is for anyone who likes being seen when playing games online. Its small size makes it easy to situate almost anywhere, and it delivers a sharp enough image. Though not everyone will want or need this peripheral, it’s a neat-looking device that works as advertised.
New Pokemon Legends: Z-A Switch 2 Bundle announced!
Nintendo just announced a brand-new Switch 2 bundle is coming our way!
Today, the company revealed that Pokémon fans would be able to get a Nintendo Switch 2 + Pokémon Legends: Z-A Bundle for $499, which launches simultaneously with the forthcoming game on October 16, 2025.
The bundle includes the console and the full game download for Pokémon Legends: Z-A- Nintendo Switch 2 Edition.
A Nintendo press release says pre-orders for the new bundle are available on My Nintendo Store and participating retailers, but I couldn't see the listing when I checked just now.
Nintendo of Europe has confirmed the new Switch 2 bundle will also be available in the UK and beyond, but pre-orders don't start until tomorrow (October 23).
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Pokémon Legends: Z-A Nintendo Switch 2 Edition Bundle: $499 at Nintendo
UK: Save on DK Bananza at Currys
Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza are the major Nintendo games available for the Switch 2 at present. If you want to get a console and both titles in the UK, Currys might be one of the best places to go.
Right now, the retailer has an offer on that lets you get 15% off the newly-released (and brilliant) DK: Bananza when purchased alongside any Nintendo Switch 2 system or bundle, including the £429 Mario Kart World Bundle.
All you need to do is add a Nintendo Switch 2 system and the game to your basket and USE CODE DK15 at checkout, and you can bag your new console and the new platformer together for less.
Potential Switch 2 stock at Walmart
In a similar situation to Target, I am currently seeing some Switch 2 systems showing as available at select Walmart stores on the retailer's website.
It might be more of a longshot, but there's always a chance a Walmart near you has some units in stock, so worth checking nonetheless.
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World: $499 at Walmart
Target still has limited Switch 2 stock available
Just checked back in at Target, and it looks like they still have some Switch 2 systems available in select stores. Click through now to check whether a nearby Target store is offering pickup or shipping.
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World: $499 @ Target
Request an Amazon invite
Don't forget that Amazon is still selling Nintendo Switch 2 systems by invitation. Amazon Prime members can request an invite to buy the Nintendo Switch 2 or Mario Kart World bundle right now. And if you've already requested an invite, make sure to check your email inbox!
- Nintendo Switch 2: $449 @ Amazon
- Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World Bundle: $499 @ Amazon
Nintendo Switch 2 games on sale!
Since the Nintendo Switch 2 is still so new, I wasn't expecting to see any Switch 2 game deals appear any time soon. However, you can already save on a couple of digital Switch 2 games over at Nintendo! Notably, No Man's Sky is on sale with an impressive 60% discount.
- No Man's Sky Nintendo Switch 2 Edition: was $59 now $23 @ Nintendo
- Suikoden I&II HD Remaster: was $49 now $39 @ Nintendo
- Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition: was $69 now $62 @ Nintendo
Limited Switch 2 stock available in select Target stores
Target recently had a major Switch 2 restock, and it looks like a few units are still hanging around! Check and see if there's a nearby Target store that offers pickup or shipping to you.
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World: $499 @ Target
DK Bananza is the Switch 2's system seller
Like pretty much all Switch 2 owners, I've been spending my weekend playing Donkey Kong Bananza, and as TG's reviewer, Anthony Spadafora said, it's "one of the best reasons to get a Switch 2." In fact, I'd go further, it's currently the reason to get one.
This platform is a complete blast, and the way you can smash through entire levels never stops being novel. It's also a collector's dream with a staggering amount of knick-knacks to find, and the completionist in me wanted to find literally everything.
If you already own a Switch 2, or plan to pick one up soon once the next round of restocks appear, then you need to make sure DK Bananza is one of the first games you play. Yes, Mario Kart World is fun, but Bananza is the true Switch 2 system seller.
Switch 2 currently sold out in the US
In the story is less positive in the US right now. Currently, the Nintendo Switch 2 is sold out across major retailers. Though you can still request an invite at Amazon, so that is your best bet at present. Still, the most recent restock came from Target and lasted several hours, taking almost a full day to sell out, so hopefully once the console returns we'll again see a longer period of availability rather than a sell out in just a minutes.
