Snag a Nintendo Switch 2 from Walmart or Best Buy Before They’re Sold Out!

Well, here we go. I mean, who knew a gaming console could create such chaos, right? The Switch 2 is like some mythical creature—rare as a unicorn and about as popular as one too. You blink, you miss it. Seriously, it’s like these things vanish faster than I lose socks in the laundry. And you know what? Even with restocks, good luck. You’ve practically gotta live online just to snag one.

So, let me ramble a bit about where you might find these little devils. As of now, Best Buy and Walmart seem to have a few left. Seems like you’re on a wild goose chase if you don’t check their sites regularly. Depends if their websites say you can pick it up in-store—you might be out of luck otherwise. They’ve got the standalone Switch 2 for $449 and the bundle, which comes with Mario Kart World or something, for $499. Yawn, I know, but hey, that’s the official scoop.

And what’s this little guy packing? A screen that’s 7.9 inches, if I’m recalling this right, and it’s not paper-thin but pretty sleek at 13.9 mm. Goes from regular HD to boom—4K, if you dock it. Without the dock, it’s all flashy with up to 120 frames per second and HDR. Fancy stuff, I guess. I’m not the techie type, so all these numbers make my head spin a bit.

Anyway, or was it yeah, act fast—or slow—if you’re more the pondering type. These consoles are like Houdini, disappearing acts and all. Seriously, don’t fall for those sneaky price hikes above MSRP, just hold your horses until they’re back to normal. Be smart, or, well, just check it’s coming from Walmart or Best Buy direct and not some mysterious third-party in who-knows-where.

Oh, sidetrack time. If you’re looking for bargains—who isn’t?—check out those PC hardware deals the internet is buzzing about. SSDs, CPUs, XYZs, and LMNOPs—if those even exist. You might find something cool but hey, that’s a different story for another day.
