Nintendo has delayed previously announced plans to beginNintendo Switch 2pre-orders in the U.S. on April 9.
Nintendo will update timing at a later date.
The launch date of June 5, 2025 is unchanged.
This unprecedented move comes in the wake of significant backlash from gamers over theNintendo Switch 2s pricingstrategy.
A move that would certainly create even more outrage.
Adding more uncertainty to the situation is that for now, it feels like a U.S.-only delay.
Over in the U.K., Nintendo Switch 2 pre-orders have already gone live at multiple major retailers.
Argos, Very and Game have already taken pre-orders and quickly sold out of stock.
Here’s hoping we get proper clarification soon.
