Delayed Switch 2 US pre-orders will reportedly start next week, depending on retailer

It seems some retailers in the US will open up Switch 2 pre-orders as soon as next week.

Earlier this month, Nintendo made the unprecedented decision to delay its Switch 2 pre-orders in both the US and Canada, stating this was “in order to assess the potential impact of tariffs and evolving market conditions”. Pre-orders in both countries were initially planned to go live on 9th April.

However, the ever-reliable Billbill-kun of Dealabs has now said Switch 2 pre-orders in the US will begin soon, with some retailers starting next week.
