Ahead of the Switch 2 Direct next week, it seems more retailers are preparing for the arrival of the new Nintendo system.
As highlighted by IGN, Best Buy Canada recently published a “comprehensive guide on how to pre-order the Switch 2”, but this blog post has now been taken offline. The most interesting discovery is the date attached – suggesting Switch 2 pre-orders will open on 2nd April 2025 in Canada.
“Pre-orders for the Nintendo Switch 2 will open on April 2nd at Best Buy Canada.”
If this is accurate, it means pre-orders will go live in this region on the same date as the Switch 2 Direct. Best Buy in the US hasn’t said anything about this just yet, so we’ll just have to wait and see. Nintendo will also be hosting its ‘Switch 2 experience’ globally. This begins in New York in early April and locations like Toronto will host this event later on in the same month.
Apart from the official pre-order date confirmation, we’re still waiting for a price and release date for the new hardware.
