Have you heard the news? The highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 is finally here! However, don't get too excited just yet because getting your hands on one might not be as easy as you think. Our team at Metro has carefully selected and curated the best products for our site, and we may earn a commission if you make a purchase through our links – but don't worry, all earnings go back into making our content even better for our readers.
Even though the Nintendo Switch 2 is now available in the UK, it's not exactly easy to find one unless you know exactly where to look. In fact, even before its release, the Switch 2 was already selling out in pre-orders across the country. It's been over a month since its launch, and one would hope that the hype has died down and Nintendo would have restocked by now. Unfortunately, that's not quite the case.
The Switch 2 is still in high demand and can be hard to find at most major retailers, including Nintendo's own website. However, all hope is not lost. If you know where to look, you may just be able to snag one for yourself. Here's what you need to know.
So, where can you find the Nintendo Switch 2 in stock right now? Our experts have done some digging, and we have a few options for you. First and foremost, check out Amazon. They just received a new shipment today and have both the Switch 2 on its own and the Mario Kart World bundle available at their regular prices of £395 and £430 respectively. Plus, they're offering free delivery and if you order now, you should receive your console by the end of the week (although the Mario Kart World bundle may take until late August to arrive).
Another reliable option is Very, which currently has multiple Switch 2 bundles available. However, these will likely sell out quickly, so act fast. Keep in mind that these bundles may be more expensive, as they include extra accessories or games such as the upcoming Donkey Kong Bananza, which is set to launch on July 17. Here are a few of the available bundles:
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World – £429.99
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World + Camera + Pro Controller – £555
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World + Donkey Kong Bananza – £496
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World + Pro Controller + 256GB SanDisk Micro SD Card – £553
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World + Samsung Micro SD Card – £479
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World + Street Fighter 6 – £479
- Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World + The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom – £494
- Nintendo Switch 2 + The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom + Donkey Kong Bananza – £525
We also found a few lesser-known options that may have been overlooked. OnBuy.com has both the standard Switch 2 and the Mario Kart World bundle at regular prices, with delivery available by the end of July and a 30-day return window. Another option is Wonderprice, which has the standard Switch 2 for a slightly cheaper price of £392.99 and the Mario Kart World bundle for £420.99.
If all else fails, there is one more option – placing a back order with ShopTo. However, keep in mind that there is no guarantee as to when they will receive new stock, and you may not even receive one if there is high demand.
But here's the big question – when will the Nintendo Switch 2 stop selling out? We wish we had a definitive answer, but unfortunately, we don't. However, we would love to hear your thoughts and experiences. Have you been lucky enough to snag a Switch 2? How long did it take you to find one?
