Oh man, the Nintendo Switch 2 is out, and if you’re thinking about getting your hands on one, well, you better have the patience of a saint. Seriously, the demand is off the charts and stores are practically playing hide and seek with their stock levels. Picture Black Friday but, you know, every day.
Anyway, let’s talk Prime Day. Oddly enough, even though it’s that magical time of year when everything’s supposed to be cheaper, don’t expect any serious discounts on the Switch 2. Like, zilch. Maybe some accessories will get a price cut? Who knows, right?
Now about the Switch 2 itself — it’s like the older brother who went to the gym. Physically bigger than the first Switch, with these beefy Joy-Cons. They’ve also gone and given the dock a makeover, and there’s this kickstand that’s, I dunno, less wobbly? Not the most accurate term, but you get it. Oh, and before I forget — if the 256GB storage sounds like a shoebox in a Black Friday sale, maybe snag one of those microSD Express cards.
The screen’s a pretty cool 7.9 inches, with some serious high-definition vibes — 1080p, so your retinas can have a party. Pair it with the dock, and boom, you might just be playing in 4K, if everything aligns just right. But really, who’s counting pixels when you’re mid-Mario Kart? I’m not.
For those bundle hunters out there, look for deals that toss in a Mario Kart game or maybe some fun peripherals. Keep this page bookmarked or whatever. Updates will keep rolling in faster than a Bullet Bill.
Now, where to snag one of these beauties? In the US, it’s pretty much a wild goose chase. Whenever a restock happens, it vanishes faster than a cookie in a toddler’s hand. Keep refreshing — not even kidding. As of July 07, 2025, this is still the drill. Try Antonline, Walmart, GameStop, Newegg, Best Buy, and Target. Your best bet might change quicker than a cat on a hot tin roof.
Across the pond? UK shoppers have a wide spread — from Argos to GAME. ShopTo’s in the mix too. The consoles are like gold dust, but occasionally sneak into stores like Very or Smyths Toys. Dates change, stock shifts, and basically, it’s a game of cat and mouse. Last checked, yep, July 07, 2025.
So, in a nutshell, the Switch 2’s got folks buzzing and hopping from store to store like headless chickens. I’m kinda nostalgic for simpler times, but hey, progress, right?
