From Walmart to GameStop - Walmart, Best Buy, Target and GameStop all launched their Nintendo Switch 2 pre-orders last week

Nintendo has forecast 15 million sales for Nintendo Switch 2 during its launch window, which would make it one of the fastest-selling game consoles ever. In its forecast for the next fiscal year, ending March 2026, Nintendo predicts that it will sell 15 million Switch 2 consoles and 45 million games.

Nintendo Switch 2 pre-orders are now live on both sides of the pond. In the U.S. and the U.K., Nintendo’s upcoming console has been made available to order, and it took just a matter of hours (minutes in some cases) for the dreaded “sold out” sign to appear across retailers.
