The Nintendo Switch 2 is finally here, which means that top accessories like the Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller is available to purchase. But if you're looking to secure one for yourself when stock is seemingly limited, where should you shop first?

Well, that's what this where to buy guide is for. As someone who's been covering Nintendo hardware for years - be that with reviews, features or buying advice - I can help you identify the best US and UK retailers that have stock in for the Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller.

Switch 2 Pro controller links

But first, some info on the gamepad itself. The Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller retails for $84.99 / £74.99. It is the upgraded version of the original Nintendo Switch Pro Controller, which is also compatible with the Switch 2 console. Furthermore, it's worth noting that the US price for the controller has increased from the initial $79.99 it was going to retail at.

The Switch 2 Pro Controller adds the new 'C' button to access the GameChat feature, as well as the addition of a 3.5mm headphone jack and two extra remappable buttons on the rear of the pad. In my Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller hands-on, I also noted that the thumbsticks felt impressively smooth. However, Nintendo has not confirmed whether or not they feature drift-resistant Hall effect technology (though we do know that the Joy-Con 2 controllers lack it).

With that out of the way, if this gamepad is still something you'd be interested in buying along with your new console, check our lists below to learn where to buy the Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller.
