The post-holiday restock has arrived. After flying off shelves in December, the Nintendo Switch 2 is now available at most major retailers both online and in-store, including Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, Target, Walmart, Newegg, and Nintendo’s own store.
Where to Find It Now
Inventory has stabilized since the December rush. Every major U.S. retailer currently lists the $450 standalone console as in stock, and the $500 Mario Kart World bundle is also widely available-though Nintendo confirms this bundle will only be offered through fall 2025.
- Amazon: Console, Mario Kart bundle, and Donkey Kong bundle available; Pokemon bundle sold out
- Best Buy: Console and Mario Kart bundle in stock; same-day pickup in many locations
- GameStop: Standalone and Mario Kart bundles online; Pokemon bundle sold out
- Walmart: Direct-from-Walmart inventory available; warns against third-party resellers
- Target: Both console options online and in select stores
- Newegg: Less traffic than big-box rivals, potentially easier checkout
- Nintendo: Invitation requirement dropped; direct orders open to all
- Costco: Member-exclusive Mario Kart bundle adds 12 months of Nintendo Switch Online
- Staples: Limited in-store stock only; one per customer
UK and Canada Availability
UK buyers can grab the console or Mario Kart bundle from Nintendo UK, Very, ShopTo, Smyths, EE, Game, and The Game Collection without needing an invitation. Amazon UK is currently sold out of all SKUs.
Canadian shoppers find the same pattern: standalone and Mario Kart bundles are in stock at Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop (now EB Games), Walmart, and Nintendo, while the Pokemon bundle is sold out nationwide.
Pricing and Color Options
Prices remain fixed at $450 for the console and $500 for the Mario Kart bundle-a $30 savings versus buying the game separately. Nintendo has not announced additional Joy-Con colors; the Switch 2 ships with monochrome controllers accented only by red and blue around the analog sticks.
Key Takeaways
- Inventory is stable across the U.S., UK, and Canada
- The Mario Kart World bundle is the only current deal and expires fall 2025
- Pokemon Legends: Z-A bundles are sold out at every listed retailer
- No invitation or registration is required to buy directly from Nintendo
- Shoppers should verify “sold and shipped by” labels to avoid third-party markups
If you’re ready to jump into Mario Kart World or Donkey Kong Bananza, now is the safest window before the next wave of demand hits.
