If you hoped to avoid chaos that accompanied the launch of switch 2 by pre -ordering directly from Nintendo, this may not happen more quickly. In an update On his website, Nintendo says that he notes “a very strong demand” for the console, so “your invitation email can arrive after the launch of Nintendo Switch 2” for June 5. This can also delay the shipment until this date, said the company.
Nintendo opened the possibility of “recording your interest” for the purchase of a switch 2 earlier in Japan and 2.2 million amazing people applied to pre -order the console. It’s now the same offer to North American users and initially promised to send the first batch of pre-order invitations on May 8. For at least some people, this can now slip almost a month or more.
Nintendo has suggested visiting its launch partners, but as we have seen so far, this process has also been difficult. So far, Amazon has not even had a command page for the Switch 2 and customers have trouble ordering to other retailers like Walmart, Target and Best Buy.
If you want to apply for pre-order, beware that Nintendo has not made the process easy, likely to dissuade scalpers. You must have an online subscription purchased by Nintendo Switch, you have made an online subscription Nintendo Switch paid for at least 12 months, you have chosen to share game data and have at least 50 hours of play in total.
Nintendo delayed the initial launch date from April 9 to 24 due to concerns about Trump prices. It remains to be seen if Nintendo has underestimated the demand for switching 2 in other territories such as the United States as much as for Japan-but given the current frenzy, it seems likely.
