Walmart’s latest stock updates, Best Buy and more
The Nintendo Switch 2 has been in the US for over two weeks, but I have to find one.

Best Buy restocked on June 23, but the units (required in-store pickups) were no longer in stock. Similarly, Target has some inventory in at least one area we inspected, but requires in-store purchases. If you are a member there, you can also grab the bundle at Costco. Otherwise, it’s a slim choice. As of today, we have seen hardly any availability – although your luck may vary when checking inventory, online, or in person.

We can’t guarantee that you will still be able to grab the Switch 2 in the old-fashioned way, but it’s worth checking if local targets, Best Buy, Wal-Mart or GameStop (the list of four official retailers Nintendo on its store page) are still in stock. For now, though, you can skip Amazon: for whatever reason, the largest online retailer doesn’t even have the Switch 2 product page (but does seem to be selling games and accessories). That being said, if you’re still hunting, we’ve put together all the latest information on how to buy the Nintendo Switch 2 and where to buy it.
