The eagerly awaited Nintendo Switch 2 launch is creating excitement among both gamers and retailers. While Best Buy (NYSE: BBY) stands to benefit from the increased demand, even a hit product cycle may not be sufficient to counter the retailer’s rising financial and macroeconomic challenges.

TL;DR: The highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 launches on June 5. If you missed out on preorders, you might want to try your luck in person at the following retailers: Best Buy, Target, Staples, GameStop, Costco, Sam's Club, and Walmart.

In the UK, there was some excellent availability for the Nintendo Switch 2 for launch day, and after a tough day or so, it seems like stock is improving. We'll be checking UK retailers regularly for any updates, so rest assured, you'll find the best links for that region here too.
