The countdown to the Nintendo Switch 2 launch has finally begun. Here's where you can preorder your own console

Nintendo's official guide page on how to buy the Switch 2 says, "The first batch of invitations will go out starting May 8, 2025," and "additional batches of invitation emails sent periodically until purchasing on My Nintendo Store is opened to everyone."

We're still waiting for Nintendo to open Switch 2 preorders in the US, but in the meantime, a handful of games are available to preorder.
