The Nintendo Switch 2 will soon be yours, barring any supply chain issues or shortages. After pulling back the curtain on its new console during a one-hour Direct livestream, Nintendo announced in a press release Wednesday that Switch 2 preorders will open at select retailers on April 9.

Amazon is now taking Nintendo Switch 2 pre-order invite registrations. You'll need to hit the "Request Invite" button on the page to put your name in the hat, but doing so doesn't guarantee a pre-order or even a slot in the first wave. It is a necessary step to getting into the mix at all, though.

As revealed during the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct, the system will launch on June 5 with a starting price of $449. That's for the system itself. If you want a Switch 2 with a game, there will be a Mario Kart World bundle for $499. Pre-orders start on April 9.
