GameStop opened up its preorders on April 24th, and like with other retailers, the online preorders started poorly<\/a>. Within a couple hours, the company confirmed that online preorders sold out, but many people, including The Verge\u2019s<\/em> Ash Parrish, had luck preordering in-store<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Best Buy said this week<\/a> that \u201cmost\u201d stores will have extra Switch 2 consoles available in-store at launch, too. The Verge<\/em> has contacted Walmart and Target to see if they can share their plans for launch day availability.<\/p>\n

And if you requested the chance to buy a console through Nintendo\u2019s direct sales<\/a>, check your email; invitations started going out on May 8th, and I got my own invite on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
