Nintendo Switch 2 remains a frustratingly tricky console to buy right now. Launched earlier this month, Nintendo’s new hybrid console sold out during the pre-order period and hasn’t been consistently in stock since. But Switch 2 restocks are appearing across major retailers, so all hope is not lost.
Veterans of the PS5 and Xbox Series X restock nightmare will know the score here. While retailers are regularly replenishing inventory, most Switch 2 restocks are being snapped up in minutes. Last week saw Best Buy and Walmart take fresh orders, and I'm hopeful more are on the way.
Over in the U.K., things are looking better, even if the console also isn’t reliably available. Restocks in the region are more plentiful and often stick around for hours, if not several days. If you’re looking to buy a Switch 2 in the U.K., the good news is that it’s a much simpler task, but it does require some effort.
As a reminder, Nintendo Switch 2 launched on June 6, and costs $449 / £395, or you can get the console bundled with launch game Mario Kart World for $499 / £429.
I’ve spent the last five years tracking difficult-to-find gaming items, and I’m putting all that expertise to good use to hunt Switch 2 restocks across every major retailer. So, if you’re looking to buy a Nintendo Switch 2, follow this live blog for the latest updates.

I'm a Senior Entertainment Editor at Tom's Guide with five years of experience tracking restocks on hard-to-buy items from PS5 and Xbox Series X to the ultra-rare PlayStation 30th Anniversary Collection. Over the years, I've learned how to play (and win) the restock game, and I'm using all this expertise to help you pick up a Nintendo Switch 2 this week.
Nintendo Switch 2 Camera
The Nintendo Switch 2 Camera is a good and relatively affordable official webcam for anyone who likes being seen when playing 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.
Nintendo Switch 2 Camera: $54 @ GameStop
The Switch 2 Pro controller is crucial
The Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller offers a more comfortable and precise way to play Switch 2 games. This is thanks to its ergonomic design and responsive buttons and joysticks. Though expensive, it’s essential for Switch 2 users who primarily play in docked mode or who just want a better controller.
Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller: $84 @ Best Buy
A full US Switch 2 sweep
I've gone through all the major U.S. retailers (see below for the links if you want to check yourself), searched through the "Latest" section on X under "Switch 2 restock," and checked with all the significant sources that are also hunting Switch 2 restocks and I have one thing to report:
The console isn't in stock anywhere (aside from a third-party scalper on Walmart).
Anyway, if you want to check for yourself (maybe something was added in the last 30 seconds), here are the links:
- Amazon: check stock
- Best Buy: check stock
- Walmart: check stock

BJ's sold out
And that was quick. The page is updated now, and it shows "Sold Out" where it previously said "Add to Cart." Hopefully, you managed to snag one while they were in stock, though.
Keep it locked to Tom's Guide, as we'll keep checking for restocks as they happen.
In stock at BJ's!
Quick! BJ's has Switch 2 in stock! Go go go. I tried adding one to my cart, and it didn't work, so your mileage may vary, but it shows the Add to Cart option on the page.
And if you miss the BJ's stock, here are the other retailers to check.

Amazon killing off scalper listings
For a while, a bunch of Switch 2 resellers (or scalpers, if you will) were listing the Mario Kart World bundle on Amazon for as much as $879.
Thankfully, those listings have been removed, giving the resellers one less place to get the overpriced out to the people (there are plenty of places to pay too much for a Switch 2 if you really can't wait, though).
Amazon certainly won't stop scalpers from scalping, but it will likely hurt their chances of moving overpriced consoles.
If you want to get a Switch 2 at the regular price, follow along with our live blog for all the updates and new stock as it happens.
Switch 2 Mario Kart World stock at Amazon UK running low
Anyone after the Switch 2 with Mario Kart World in the U.K. will want to act fast, as it's now running out of stock at Amazon. It's been going strong since it went live, but now it seems like its on its last few units. So, grab it while the going's good!
The good news is the console-only Switch 2 at Amazon U.K. has no signs of slowing down. It's currently not available at any other retailer, so now's a good time to grab Nintendo's latest console if you've been waiting to get your hands on it.
- Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World Bundle: £429 @ Amazon UK
- Nintendo Switch 2: £395 @ Amazon UK
Alert: Switch 2 Stock at GAME (running low)
There's now even more Switch 2 stock in the U.K., as GAME has more Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World bundles available. You'll want to act fast, though, as the listing page states availability is "running low."
Even if you don't nab any at GAME, stock on Amazon is still going strong, whether you're after the console-only package or want Mario Kart World thrown in. No sign of more restocks in the U.S. yet, but there are a few options if you're based in the U.K. Take your pick!
- Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World Bundle: £429 @ GAME
- Nintendo Switch 2: £395 @ Amazon
- Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World Bundle: £429 @ Amazon
ICYMI: Nintendo announces Donkey Kong Bananza Direct
Tune in at 6 a.m. PT on June 18 for a livestreamed #DonkeyKongBananza Direct presentation, featuring roughly 15 minutes of information about the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 game. #NintendoDirect Watch here: https://t.co/PlBJOI8Ij8 pic.twitter.com/2JVWipsdq3June 16, 2025
While we're looking for more restocks, Nintendo just announced it's holding a Donkey Kong Bananza Direct livestream, set to take place on June 18 at 9 a.m. EST / 6 a.m. PT / 2 p.m. BST.
Donkey Kong Bananza is set to be one of the Switch 2's biggest games, featuring giant, destructible environments and a whole new type of outing for DK. As TG's Tony Polanco put it, it's the "unofficial Super Mario Odyssey sequel" we've been waiting for, and it's looking to be a big reason to grab a Switch 2.
If it's the Switch 2 title you've been waiting for, Bananza is already available to pre-order (set to launch on July 17)! But if you're still on the fence, stay tuned for our thoughts once it arrives.
- Donkey Kong Bananza (US): $69 @ Amazon
- Donkey Kong Bananza (UK): £64 @ Amazon
The Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller is worth it
If you're waiting for a chance to swipe a Switch 2 and know you'll be playing a lot in docked mode, the Pro controller is a very good shout.
We've tested the Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller and said that it's essential for Switch 2 users who want a better controller than the Joy-Cons. Whether you're playing Mario Kart World or Street Fighter 6, you can expect smooth gaming performance with responsive buttons, a long-lasting battery life (40 hours) and an overall comfy feel.
We'd like to see Hall Effect sensors and analog triggers, especially for its price, but if you mainly play in docked mode and the Joy-Cons don't cut it, then you'll definitely want to check out the Switch 2 Pro controller. It's actually out of stock at some retailers, but not all! If you've set your mind on it, you can grab it now at the stores below.
- Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller (US): $84 @ Walmart
- Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller (UK): £74 @ Argos
Amazon U.K. Switch 2 stock sticking around
It's lunchtime in the U.K., and for anybody hunting Switch 2 restock on their break, there's good news as Amazon currently has both the standalone Switch 2 console and the Mario Kart Bundle in stock at RRP right now.
Curiously, the former did previously have a "only 3 left in stock" notification earlier today, but that's since been removed, so perhaps the retailer has found a few more units down the back of the sofa? Either way, you can pick up a Switch 2 at Amazon U.K. now and if you're a Prime member, you'll even get free shipping for delivery tomorrow.
- Nintendo Switch 2: £395 @ Amazon
- Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart Bundle: £429 @ Amazon
Switch 2 software listings now at Amazon U.S.
Amazon U.S. has fully entered the Switch 2 game; the retailer hasn't just set live its listing page for the console itself, but it's also now taking orders across the platform's launch library from Mario Kart World to Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Switch 2 Edition.
If you've already scored a Switch 2 and want to pick up some games for your new console, here are all the links you need. And if you want my personal recommendation, check out my guide to the best Nintendo Switch 2 launch games for 3 must-play picks.

ICYMI: There's movement at Amazon U.S. as well
While Amazon over in the U.K. has restocked the Switch 2 this morning (Monday, June 16), there's also some good news for U.S. readers, even if it's not quite a full restock.
One of the strangest parts of the Switch 2 rollout has been that Amazon has completely sat it out in the U.S. The online retailer didn't even launch a listing page for the console or any of its launch games. That is until now...
Amazon U.S. now finally has a listing page for the Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart Bundle. It's currently marked as "unavailable," but it's a positive sign that Amazon will soon enter the Switch 2 restock game. Watch this space!
- Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart Bundle: check stock @ Amazon
Switch 2 in stock at Amazon U.K.
It's a good start to the week if you're a U.K. gamer looking to pick up a Nintendo Switch 2 as the console has been restocked at Amazon.
The online mega-retailer has both the standalone Switch 2 for £395, and the Mario Kart Bundle for £429. The former looks close to selling out with Amazon noting there are "only 3 left in stock" so if you just want the base unit and nothing else go get yours locked in right now. Both these listings are for RRP and with free shipping on Prime.
- Nintendo Switch 2: £395 @ Amazon
- Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart Bundle: £429 @ Amazon

Hello! It's the start of another week, and that means it's time to get down to the serious business of Switch 2 restock tracking.
