It's been a few days since the launch, and there is currently almost no Nintendo Switch 2 stock available to buy - particularly in the US.
Aside from that, we'll be tracking stock across all the major retailers in the US and giving you up-to-date information as we find it or get it. Amazingly, we're still waiting for any news from Amazon, which still hasn't had the console up for sale.
In the UK, there was some excellent availability for the Nintendo Switch 2 for launch day, but things are starting to look tough again out there. We'll be checking UK retailers regularly for any updates, so rest assured, you'll find the best links for that region here too.
Remember, a Nintendo Switch 2 console by itself goes for $449.99 / £395.99 / AU$699.99. There's also an official bundle that throws in a digital copy of Mario Kart World and costs $499.99 / £429.99 / AU$769.99. We definitely expect to see retailers offering their own bundles too, however.
I've been covering the Switch 2 pre-order and stock situation for weeks now, and know how to search and gather up, and present all the best links and information for you to find your new console. For an overview of the best retailers to check, simply navigate below to our extensive list for both territories. Our live updates are at the bottom of the page, offering a steady stream of the latest tips to help you out.

I've been covering gaming hardware launches for more than half a decade now and experienced firsthand the tough days of the PS5 and Xbox Series X stock shortages, and graphics card releases a few years ago. I've been hardened by those experiences, but was also one of the only people to also cover the PlayStation 30th Anniversary release day stock on the hunch that there would be inventory - and there was. As a result, I know what I'm doing and also know a thing or two about presenting all the pertinent information and links to you in the most efficient way so you can find any launch day stock as quickly as possible.
As we continue to look for any Switch 2 restocks, it's a good idea to make sure you have your storage needs in order. The new Switch 2 uses microSD Express cards (whereas the first Switch used microSDXC), and you can pick one up at a few places now if you're in the UK or at Walmart and the Nintendo store in the US.

Bad news for the US, good news for the UK
While there is no news in the US, which means no Switch 2 restocks at online retailers, we do have good news in the UK.
The retailer Very has restocked Switch 2 bundles, with several options available starting at £479. I'm still able to add all the console bundles to my cart, but a "selling fast" logo is attached to a couple of the consoles, so I'd recommend acting quickly.
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Switch 2 Pro Controller + SanDisk MicroSD Express card: £520 at Very
- Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World bundle + The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom: £494 at Very
- Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World bundle + Samsung MicroSD Express card: £479 at Very
- Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World bundle + SanDisk MicroSD Express card: £479 at Very
- Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World bundle + Street Fighter 6: £479 at Very
TechRadar's Switch 2 review
While we wait for any restocks on the Switch 2, it's a great time to actually read about our hands-on review of the Switch 2 console, games, and accessories.
Rhys Wood, who is TechRadar's hardware editor, has been testing the Switch 2 for the past week and gives his thoughts, reactions, and experience in our Switch 2 review live blog.
He goes over everything and anything with the Switch 2, including its interface, sound, accessories, and games.
Mack is back... Again!
Hello again!
It's Mackenzie, the US deals editor, taking over today's Switch 2 live blog. Hopefully, I'll be able to report good news on the Switch 2 front with available restocks. If not, I'll be sharing today's best Switch deals in the US and UK and any Switch 2 news from retailers.
This is such good news for UK folks when all was looking bleak. Very has come in with the goods and is offering multiple bundles.
It's that kind of good news that I like handing over to my colleague Mack with! But here are those Very links once again, and I will catch you another time!
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Switch 2 Pro Controller + SanDisk MicroSD Express card: £520 at Very
- Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World bundle + The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom: £494 at Very
- Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World bundle + Samsung MicroSD Express card: £479 at Very
- Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World bundle + SanDisk MicroSD Express card: £479 at Very

OK, I'm off out to walk the dog briefly, but I've done a sweep of the UK retailers too, and a ShopTo back order is still your best bet right now...
- Amazon: check stock
- The Game Collection: out of stock
- ShopTo: place a back order now
- Currys: check stock
- Very: check stock
- Argos: check stock

With no confirmed news of a restock, I've just done a big ol' sweep and also found nothing doing, sadly.
Here are the best links to check in the US.
- Best Buy: sold out
- Amazon: still no stock updates
- Walmart: check stock
- Target: check stock
- Antonline: stock coming soon
- GameStop: in-store only
- Sam's Club: check stock
- My Nintendo Store: check stock

- Costco: in stock for members
- Verizon: check stock
Woops, looks like that last post was meant for a different article! Apologies about that.
Anyway, how are we looking? Anybody manage to snag a new console today?
Top tip: stay vigilant
In times of no stock, the best thing to do is simply to be vigilant and wait it out.
And don't pay reseller or scalpers prices! The best thing to do is hold tight; often when one retailer comes, a second is not long after too...
Stateside looks tough...
But it's harder to say in the US right now.
Aside from some awful reseller prices on the likes of Walmart right now, there's not much to go on. We just need one more of the big retailers to confirm a time and date - that's all!
Where might stock pop up today then?
As a result of the barren situation right now, we're now looking for any scrap of information to go on...
In the UK, the retailer ebuyer has its Switch 2 listing pages accompanied by 'coming soon' badge, instead of saying the console is out of stock or unavailable. Could this mean imminent restock action? Maybe! Maybe not...
The same language is being used in the US at Antonline on its Switch 2 hub page. It might well be reading into something too much, but we'll take it for now!
UK latest - ShopTo backorders are your only option
The best option right now in the UK is ShopTo, which is offering 'back orders' on the Switch 2 console and Mario Kart World bundle.
Back orders essentially mean an order of an item that the retailer doesn't currently have stock of, so it is legit, but you're still subject to just waiting for ShopTo to have its restock. However, the retailer is not offering any timeline for said restock...
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World: £429.85 at ShopTo (back order)
- Nintendo Switch 2 console: £395.85 at ShopTo (back order)
Best Buy is all out of stock
The biggest news from the US perspective is that Best Buy is indeed sold out of its June 11 Switch 2 restock.
That was the only officially confirmed restock we had heard of in recent days too which is a shame, and means we're back to square one in the US as everywhere else is still sold out.
Hello again!
Hello! Welcome back to our live coverage of Switch 2 restocks. Fingers crossed there's some good news today...
Let's start by doing a quick sitrep.
Goodbye for now
As things look quiet on Switch 2 stock in the US and UK, I'm logging off for the evening.
Rob will pick things back up tomorrow morning in the UK, as we hope for online restocks.
Where things stand right now
I just did a sweep of US and UK retailers, and it looks like the only retailer to have the Switch 2 in stock is EE in the UK.
While Best Buy had a restock this morning, that quickly sold out, and we don't know if the retailer will receive another batch of consoles.
And it's already sold out...
That was quick, the reseller that posted Switch 2 stock at Walmart is now sold out. It appears that the console is now sold out at every online retailer, and our best bet is to wait for another restock at Best Buy or Walmart.
Switch 2 stock at Walmart
I was just doing a sweep of retailers to check on Switch 2 stock, and it looks like Walmart has restocked the Switch 2 console and the Mario Kart World Bundle.
Now that Best Buy is sold out, this is the only online retailer to currently have the Switch 2 in stock. Please note that the prices are higher because it's a reseller on Walmart's site. If you're desperate, then this is an option, but we recommend waiting for the Switch 2 to restock at the retail price.
While you're waiting for fresh Switch 2 stock, why not grab a 12-month membership to the Nintendo Switch Online service?
This will give you access to all sorts of perks on both the current Switch and the Switch 2. And right now, you can get a year-long membership for $19.99 via a gift card at Amazon.
- 12 months of Nintendo Switch Online: get for $19.99 at Amazon
UK Switch 2 stock
While US online Switch 2 stock is grim, in the UK EE has has the Nintendo Switch 2 24 month bundle with Mario Kart World available. You must create an account with EE and login and you'll be able to purchase the console on a payment plan, which includes £22 for 24 months.
Is Switch 2 now sold out at Best Buy?
While Best Buy restocked the Switch 2 today, it now appears that both consoles have sold out online. Stock prices may fluctuate, so it's worth checking the site, but I'm unable to add either console to my basket.
Mack is back!
Hello!
Mackenzie, the US deals editor for TechRadar, is back and will be updating you with today's Switch 2 stock availability. I'll do a sweep of US and UK retailers and post some Switch deals here and there, so stay tuned!
Goodbye from me!
OK, I'm passing over our coverage to my colleague Mack, who will guide you through the next few hours.
My parting information is that the standalone console seems to have sold out at Best Buy, but the yellow button is still there on the Mario Kart World bundle!
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World: $499.99 at Best Buy
- Nintendo Switch 2 console: $449.99 at Best Buy (sold out)
Looks like Best Buy has stock!
It looks like Best Buy has gone live with its promised Switch 2 restock!
The glorious yellow 'Add to cart' button is present - though it's got a label that says 'Shipping not available for this item' attached to it, so it could be location dependent and maybe in-store stock only...
Anyway, the links are below the image to try now!
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World: $499.99 at Best Buy
- Nintendo Switch 2 console: $449.99 at Best Buy
ShopTo offering UK 'back orders'
You can also nab a 'back order' from ShopTo as well!
A 'back order' is basically a pre-order for new stock of a released product when it comes back into a retailer's inventory, so this is still legit, even if it's not offering stock right now.
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World: £429.85 at ShopTo (back order)
UK restock alert! The Game Collection coming in clutch again
However I have found some UK stock at The Game Collection!
This retailer has really been one of the unsung heroes of the Switch 2 preorder and launch stock period, and it's currently got a Cyberpunk 2077 bundle ion stock right now!
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition: £489.95 at The Game Collection
Stock *was* at Game in the UK, but no longer...
I was about to raise the Switch 2 restock flag for UK folks as there was stock available at Game - but now there isn't sadly.
Still, might be worth refreshing this page a bit in the next few mins or so as stock can sometimes reappaer fleetingly.
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World: £429.99 at Game (out of stock)
Best Buy restock confirmed
And that big news is that Best Buy has confirmed a Switch 2 restock for today (June 11)!
However, the retailer doesn't say exactly when this restock will occur as far as I currently see, so this is one where you're going to have to keep close tabs on it.
