Nintendo Switch 2 restocks live — latest updates and how to get your console

Nintendo Switch 2 restocks are on the way

Nintendo Switch 2 restocks

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.

Retailer sweep: Still quiet in the U.S.

The work day is winding down, and things are still dead quiet in the United States when it comes to Switch 2 restocks. All major U.S. retailers continue to remain sold out with no signs of restocks coming anytime soon.

That being said, things have been a little more hopeful in the U.K. today with GAME and Very getting a new shipment of Switch 2 consoles in, so there's still some hope that retailers on this side of the pond could do the same. Here are those important links below if you want to check out the state of things for yourself:

This Switch 2 case is better AND cheaper than the official one

TomToc Nintendo Switch 2 case

(Image credit: TomToc)

If you managed to snag a Switch 2 and are taking it on the go (that's part of the appeal of a portable console, right?), you're going to need a case that's tough enough to protect your new hardware. The official Switch 2 carrying case does the job fine enough, but it's pretty barebones for $40.

For a few dollars cheaper, we'd recommend going with the Tomtoc Slim Nintendo Switch 2 Carrying Case. Tomtoc's carrying cases and travel bags have been a popular choice for Switch and Steam Deck users for years, and the company's new line-up for the Switch 2 does not disappoint. Tomtoc's hardshell Switch 2 case has quickly jumped to the top of Amazon's list of the best-selling Nintendo Switch cases.

It offers a sleek design, water-resistant felt material, and shock-absorbing cushions to keep your Switch 2 snug as a bug while you're out and about. And it can store up to 12 game cards. Right now, you can get one for 23% off at Amazon, which beats out the price of the official Switch 2 case by a few bucks.

Don't use this cartridge on your Switch 2

Just because something technically works on the Nintendo Switch 2 doesn't mean you should try it out yourself. Case in point, the MIG Switch (or MIG Flash) is a flash cartridge for playing backed up Switch games. However, it can also be used as a tool for piracy and that's exactly how Nintendo sees it.

While the MIG Switch works on the Switch 2, widespread reports of users being banned after using it with the new console are circulating online. In a bid to combat piracy, Nintendo is reportedly blocking players who do so from accessing its online services. You can still play offline but you won't be able to play Mario Kart World and other new Switch 2 games online as well as access the eShop, YouTube, cloud saves and more.

Though it might be tempting to buy something like the MIG Switch as a way to back up your physical games, using your actual cartridges is definitely the safer option. If switching between them gets annoying, you may want to consider Virtual Game Cards instead.

Stay strong out there

Scalper listings for the Switch 2 on eBay

(Image credit: eBay/Tom's Guide)

The Nintendo Switch 2 is currently out of stock at Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, Target, GameStop and all the other big online retailers in the US. However, the last thing you should do if you want a Switch 2 console right now is turn to scalpers.

Over on eBay, there are plenty of listings for the Nintendo Switch 2 with the console by itself selling for $699 while the Mario Kart Bundle is going for around $749. Considering the Switch 2 costs $449, buying one from a scalper would set you back an additional $250 which is more than enough to pick up a couple of games and even a Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller.

At Tom's Guide, we're here tracking Switch 2 restocks across both US and UK retailers and we send out updates as soon as we find the console in stock. So keep checking back if you want a Switch 2 and don't give up hope as more units are definitely on their way.

In stock at GAME (UK)

If you're in the UK and are looking to pick up a Switch 2, it appears that GAME has both the console and the bundle with a copy of Mario Kart World available online.

Retailer sweep: All quiet right now...

This is my last post for today before my colleague Anthony Spadafora takes over. Unfortunately, there's nothing to report on restock front. All US retailers appear to be sold out at the moment with no signs of anyone restocking anytime soon. Here are those important links below if you want to take a look for yourself.

Should you really buy the Switch 2?

Still on the fence about buying a Switch 2? Tom's Guide senior computing writer Tony Polanco breaks down all the pros and cons in his latest YouTube video. Some of the pros include buttery smooth frame rates, a vivid display, and the new magnetic Joy-Cons, which feel much sturdier than the old ones. On the downside, Tony only got 2.5 hours of battery life when playing demanding games. Check out his full video via the link.

Restock alert! Switch 2 at Very (UK)

Head up, UK folks! Both Very and Smyths have Switch 2 consoles up for grabs right now. You can get a £520 bundle at Very that includes the Switch 2 console, Pro Controller, and 256GB microSD Express card or the standalone Switch 2 for £395 at Smyths.

Here in the U.S. it's a different story as there's no Switch 2 consoles available at the moment.

Keep the hope

Nintendo Switch 2

A few days ago, I found out about a Costco restock through our blog, and I managed to snag a console during it. It was delivered yesterday, much to the delight of my eight-year-old stepson.

I say this not to rub it in your face, but to remind you that if you stay locked on our live blog, you will get a Switch 2 eventually. You might miss a restock here and there, but one will come along at the right time to get a console in your hands!

Yes, I'm pushing the Pro controller again

Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller

(Image credit: Tom's Guide)

I've been shouting the praises of the Switch 2 Pro controller pretty much since launch, but trust me, it's only because I genuinely love this pad.

I was chipping away at Zelda: Breath of the Wild last night, and decided to try using the Joy-Cons 2s in the grip again, and within 15 minutes, I was already noping out and ready to switch back to the Pro controller. It's basically an essential extra in my mind.

The feel of the controller in hand is second to none, and the joysticks are fantastic, not to mention the buttons have just the right amount of clicks. Pricey at $84? Yeah, I can't deny that, but if you're going to be playing a lot of Switch 2 in future, it's worth buying.

At least Switch 2 games are still on Amazon US

Donkey Kong Bananza

(Image credit: Nintendo)

While I'm still scratching at head about what happened to Switch 2 listing at Amazon U.S., at least the retailer has kept (most) of its software listings for the launch live.

A few have been removed, including Mario Kart World, but there's still plenty of launch games and some upcoming titles, including Donkey Kong Bananza, up for order at the internet's biggest retailer. Though considering Amazon U.S. has already removed it's Switch 2 console listing, I'm not totally sure I'd recommend pre-ordering DK there.

What is going on with Amazon U.S.?

Throughout the Switch 2 pre-order period and subsequent restock situation, Amazon U.S. has been a constant enigma. And just when we thought we'd got some clarity, things have got weird again.

Over in the U.K., Amazon has stocked the Switch 2 as normal, taking pre-orders via an invitation system, and then restocking the console like any other item. Whereas in the U.S., up until last week, Amazon U.S. didn't even have a listing page for the console.

Many assumed this meant it had no plans to sell the Switch 2, but then a listing page for the Mario Kart Bundle appeared a few days ago, and it looked like Amazon U.S. was gearing up for a Switch 2 restock.

Today? Well that listing page has disappeared, and we appear to be back to square one with the console totally absent from its product range. At this point, I have no clue what is going on with Amazon U.S. regarding the Switch 2, but it's a real puzzler.

Switch 2 stock sweep - nothing to report (yet)

As it's approaching the early morning in the U.S., I've just checked through all the major retailers in case any Switch 2 stock had popped up to kickstart the day.

Currently, Switch 2 is sold out, across the board, so we're still playing the waiting game. But that was largely expected, as most retailers have been restocking the console during more sensible hours.

If you want to have a look yourself all the link you need are below.

Check your local GameStop for Switch 2 stock

Yesterday (June 16), GameStop took to social media to confirm it was restocking the Nintendo Switch 2 in stores. While I expect the busier locations are likely sold out by now, if you have a GameStop near you, it might just be worth trekking down to check.

In-store restocks naturally sell out slower, so you could get lucky and find your nearest branch still has a few consoles in the backroom. GameStop hasn't confirmed how big this Switch 2 restock was, and it is very much a case of your mileage may vary.

You can find your nearest GameStop using the store locator below.

Reserve a Switch 2 at ShopTo (UK)

U.K. retailer ShopTo is taking a rather interesting approach to its Switch 2 restocks. Rather than dropping new stock and triggering a mad scramble to check out as fast as possible, you can instead "back order" the Nintendo Switch 2 right now.

This is essentially like pre-ordering the console despite it already being released. Once ShopTo has the available stock, it will begin fulfilling all the back orders placed. It's not a bad method, and if you're willing to be patient, it will save you from having to hunt restock for who knows how long.

Of course, in the U.K., it's been much easier to get hold of a Switch 2 in general, so I suspect that another wave of Switch 2 restocks will arrive soon enough if you'd rather wait to place an order once the console is actually in stock rather than on back order.

One more sweep before the end of the day

Nintendo Switch 2

The work day is ending over here on the West Coast of the United States and so it seems is stock for the day.

I did one more sweep of the big retailers in the US to see if any secret stock had popped up, but it's looking like no.

We'll be back tomorrow bright and early in the UK to see if any consoles start appearing there.

Consider a racing wheel

While the Switch 2 might currently be out of stock but there are accessories you can and maybe should pick up to enhance your Switch 2 experience.

My colleague, Anthony Spadafora, upped his Mario Kart World racing with a pair of Hori racing wheels. "It almost feels like it was made for the latter’s Free Roam mode, even though its initial release came a few years after the former had launched," he wrote.

Check out deals on the Hori Mario Kart Pro Mini Racing wheel and the Mario Kart Pro Deluxe Racing Wheel depending on how intense you want to get with your kart driving.

Hori Mario Kart Pro Mini Racing Wheel
Hori Mario Kart Pro Mini Racing Wheel: was $69 now $65 at Amazon

This miniature-sized racing wheel works on both the Switch and Switch 2 and is a great way to let your kids get in on the action when you’re playing Mario Kart. Its smaller size and simpler button layout make it easier for kids to get the hang of using a racing wheel and like the larger Pro Deluxe version, it also works on PC

Hori Mario Kart Pro Deluxe Racing Wheel

This wired racing wheel from Hori is fully compatible with both the Switch and Switch 2. Along with a set of foot pedals, you get pro-style controls like paddle shifters and customizable buttons right on the wheel. It also has a sleek Mario-inspired design and works on PC too.

Retailer Sweep

Mario Kart World

We've only a few hours left in our tracking day, and I'm going to do a few more sweeps to see if any stock updates have changed.

There's been one change since our last sweep, and unfortunately, it's not good news.

BJs had some stock of just the console and doesn't seem to offer the Mario Kart World bundle. As of this posting, BJs is now listing the Switch 2 as sold out.

Still no restocks

I just did another sweep of major US retailers and came up empty. But this is unexpected as Nintendo Switch 2 restocks happen in the blink of an eye and disappear just as rapidly. 3.5 million units have been sold, however, which means finding a Switch 2 isn't impossible.

For your convenience, here are links to retailers. Who knows, you might get lucky!

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.

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.

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:

BJ's sold out

BJ's Switch 2 page

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

Amazon Switch 2 listing

(Image credit: Amazon)

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.

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!

ICYMI: Nintendo announces Donkey Kong Bananza Direct

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.

The Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller is worth it

Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller

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.

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.

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!

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.
