Nintendo Switch 2 hits store shelves in global launch
Nintendo's (NTDOY, 7974.T) Switch 2 gaming console is here, taking over store shelves around the world. The Japanese gaming giant is expecting to sell 15 million units in this initial launch. Yahoo Finance tech editor Dan Howley reports more on the Switch 2 launch and the competition in the portable gaming space. Catch Yahoo Finance's full interview with former Nintendo of America President and COO Reggie Fils-Aimé from July 2024. To watch more expert insights and analysis on the latest market action, check out more Morning Brief here. Well, the Nintendo Switch 2 is officially out with lines across the US and the world as gamers head to their nearest retailer to pick up the new console. The first Nintendo Switch launched in 2017. It sold 152 million units. Nintendo expecting to sell 15 million units of the Switch 2 this year, despite potential headwinds from global trade tensions. Yahoo Finance Tech Editor Dan Howley joining us now with more. Dan, great to speak with you about this launch. Uh very exciting for the gamers out there. What are you anticipating in terms of the success of this launch for Nintendo? Yeah, very exciting for the gamers, very excited for me. I got my Super Nintendo uh controller above my head there, uh dissected. But uh for the the company itself, this is uh a huge launch. I mean, this happens once every seven to 10 years. Uh Nintendo last launched this in 2017. So this is a a huge deal for for them. The success of the switch was virtually unprecedented for their home console brands. Uh they're generally uh go between a ebb and flow kind of pattern when it comes to the success of of those consoles. So we had the huge success of the switch. Now we have to see if they can break that ebb and flow pattern for the switch too. And the ebb and flow pattern I'm referring to is you go from the the Super Nintendo to the Nintendo 64, the GameCube, uh you know, that didn't sell sell well. Then they had the Wii, which everyone, you know, saw and used, and then we had the Wii U, which didn't do well, and then the switch. And the switch uh basically kind of introduced a new type of gaming uh to the industry, the the handheld style uh for full-sized games. Obviously, there were things like the Game Boy before this, but these were full regular games that you would then be able to also play on your TV. And so now there are competitors from uh we have a portable from Sony now with their uh PlayStation uh portal. Uh we also have Windows-based competitors uh from the likes of uh Steam, uh as well as Asus and and other PC companies. So this really did kind of set up a a new kind of gaming. But for Nintendo, this is an absolute must. Uh the console, as you can see, 449, that's a big price jump from the $300 of the original. If you get the game uh Mario Kart World with it, it's 499 uh 499. So you save a little bit of money there uh if you do that that bundle. New Joy-Cons, uh they're now magnetic. Uh they can also be used as a mouse. And then yes, they have built-in chat as well as new multiplayer features where you can set up a little camera. Uh it's built into a PD Piranha plant, uh that Piranha that eats Mario in the games, uh and you'd be able to communicate with other players. So they're going whole hog into to the idea of being able to connect. That's obviously social part is a big part of gaming nowadays. Uh and Nintendo really going into that, but this needs to be a huge success for them and it's kind of a risk uh sticking to that same pattern, something they don't usually do. Dan, we only got 30 seconds here. Were you at the Switch launch event in New York last night? No, I I wasn't, thankfully. I avoided. I do have Look, man, I don't even know why I'm talking to you guys. Target's supposed to be shipping mine today. I'm not getting any updates, so I I need to know where it's at. All right. Uh I guess we won't tell anyone to go stand outside of your apartment and just wait for that shipment. Uh we know that there's a lot of eager people trying to get their hands on those. Dan, good luck. Bring it in studio, why not? Let's just put it up on one of the screens in here. Start playing Mario Kart. Exactly. Thanks so much, Dan. Appreciate it.

How to buy the Nintendo Switch 2: Latest stock availability for consoles and games
The Nintendo Switch 2 is finally a thing you can buy in the US. The $450 console officially went up for sale at midnight ET on June 5, with several retailers offering the device both online and in-store. Predictably, online stock dried up fairly quickly and remains extremely limited as of our last sweep on Friday afternoon. This goes for Target too, which began its online sales around 3:30AM ET on June 6. Broadly speaking, people seem to have had more luck by going to a physical retail store in person. We can't guarantee you'll be able to snag one that way, but a few Engadget staffers managed to grab a Switch 2 on Thursday at their local Target or GameStop, even without a pre-order in place. So before you call it quits, check if a nearby Target, GameStop, Walmart or Best Buy — the four official retailers Nintendo lists on its store page — still has consoles in stock. If you're still on the hunt for Nintendo's newest device, we're rounding up all of the information we can find on how to buy the Nintendo Switch 2 and where you can pick one up. Walmart opened up online purchases at midnight ET on June 5, but both the console alone and Nintendo's Mario Kart World bundle are out of stock as our latest update. Naturally, the world's largest retailer is also selling the console at its brick-and-mortar locations. The company has noted that quantities are limited and inventory will vary by location, but it's worth seeing if any store near you still has devices available. Target began selling the Switch 2 in stores on June 5. The retailer warned that supply will be limited and the console may now be sold out, though it's still worth looking into the locations closest to you. Anecdotally, Engadget's Billy Steele was able to pick up a Switch 2 at a Target just outside of Greensboro, NC as late as 4:15pm ET on Thursday. The company restocked its online inventory around 3:30AM ET on Friday, June 6. Those listings were live for at least a couple of hours, which is longer than we would've expected, but they've since gone out of stock. GameStop held launch events on Wednesday and has advertised in-store availability, though again this will vary by location. Engadget's Cherlynn Low was able to buy the console without a pre-order at a GameStop store in the New York City area on Thursday morning. That particular location had a little under 80 units available, but its manager told Low that inventory would differ at other stores based on population. The device is currently unavailable on GameStop's website. A $625 bundle that includes Mario Kart World , a microSD Express card and a few other accessories has been in and out of stock a bit more frequently than the standard SKUs, though it's sold out now (and kind of scummy anyway). We briefly saw it return on Thursday afternoon, so it may be one to bookmark if you can stomach the extra cost. The listings for the base console and Mario Kart bundle, meanwhile, now point to a "Find a Store" page. Best Buy held in-store launch events and said it'd have limited stock at its retail locations starting June 5. It is not selling the console online during launch week, however. You may have some luck at certain membership-based retailers. A Mario Kart World bundle at Costco that includes a 12-month Switch Online subscription has gone in and out of stock since Thursday morning, while Sam's Club has had a bundle without the Switch Online sub as well. You'll need a membership to check on either of those, though. We also saw the console at BJ's early on Thursday, but that retailer is also out of stock as of Friday afternoon. Verizon briefly had the Switch 2 available on Thursday morning, but that's dried up, and only those with Verizon service were able to order. Amazon doesn't have any form of Switch 2 listing on its website, nor does it list first-party Switch 2 games like Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza . The company didn't take any pre-orders for the Switch 2 either, so it's unclear if and when it will sell the device. Newegg has listed the Switch 2 on its site for several weeks, but it hasn't started sales yet. With all of these stores, we've seen the Mario Kart World bundle available in greater quantities online than the base console, which costs $50 less. But considering Mario Kart is the Switch 2's biggest launch game and retails for $80 on its own, that may not be the worst thing. Nintendo, meanwhile, is only offering the Switch 2 via an invite system. This requires you to have been a Switch Online member for at least 12 months and logged at least 50 hours of Switch 1 playtime as of April 2. It can't hurt to sign up if you meet the criteria, but don't expect it to bear fruit immediately — many people who registered in April still haven't received an invite, and shipments haven't arrived yet for some who did order. You can find a list of every Switch 2 retail listing we could find below. Just be aware that this is meant to be a reference, not a rundown of everywhere the device is available right this second. Where to buy Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundle: Where to buy Switch 2: Unsurprisingly, Nintendo is selling a number of Switch 2 accessories alongside the console, from controllers to cases to cameras that utilize the system's new GameChat feature. Most of these became available on June 5 as well. The same goes for games like Mario Kart World and the Switch 2 version of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom . Another big Switch 2 release, Donkey Kong Bananza , won't be available until mid-July, though you can still pre-order it today. As of Friday afternoon, just about all Switch 2 games remain widely available. Stock for the accessories is spottier, but most devices are still available at one or two retailers at minimum. Nintendo's official Switch 2 carrying cases seem to be the hardest to find right now.
