If you just want the standalone console, you’ll be able to preorder the Switch 2 for $449.99 at GameStop when online preorders open today, April 24th, at 11AM ET / 8AM PT. You can also place a preorder in-store whenever your local brick-and-mortar GameStop location opens.

Get those clicks in quickly because preorders for the Nintendo Switch 2 are now live at GameStop, and they're likely to sell out quickly. You'll want to grab your new console here if you're trading in an older console since GameStop has the best trade-in value, by far.

An employee at the Shirley GameStop said, "Everyone who waited on line got one. We only had to turn away three people."
