How to Get a Switch 2 Without a Preorder

As someone eagerly waiting for the Nintendo Switch 2, you may find yourself in a predicament if you missed out on the preorders. But fear not! I’ve compiled some helpful suggestions on how I can snag a Nintendo Switch 2 even without a preorder.

Here are a few strategies to consider:

1. Keep an eye on restock announcements from retailers like GameStop, Best Buy, and Amazon. They may receive additional stock closer to the release date or in the weeks following it.

2. Join online communities dedicated to video games and Nintendo Switch. Fellow enthusiasts often share information about where they’ve spotted available units for sale.

3. Check local gaming stores and electronics shops regularly for any unsold consoles. Some people may have purchased multiple systems and resell the extras in these locations.

4. Consider purchasing from third-party sellers on eBay or Craigslist. Just be sure to verify their reputation and the condition of the system before making a purchase.

5. If all else fails, you could also consider signing up for restock notifications via services like NowInStock or Stock Informer. These platforms monitor retailer websites and alert you when the Nintendo Switch 2 becomes available.

Retail Update Isn’t a Good Sign for Those That Missed Getting a Switch 2 Pre-Order

Anticipation for the Nintendo Switch 2 was incredibly high before its release date, often resulting in pre-orders being snapped up quickly by shops once they went on sale. In fact, Nintendo has admitted that they might not be able to meet the initial customer demand for the Switch 2, despite efforts from retailers like GameStop and Walmart to stop bots and scalpers from buying up all the manufactured Switch 2 consoles.

Should Dragon Ball Series Retcon DBZ’s Epilogue? Fans React!

Following the conclusion of the original “Dragon Ball” manga in the 1990s, its universe has grown significantly. While numerous spin-offs have been published, only a handful have continued the main narrative. Initially, “Dragon Ball GT” served as a sequel, but it’s often disregarded as non-canonical by fans. However, “Dragon Ball Super,” written by Toyotaro under Akira Toriyama’s guidance (until March 2024), is generally recognized as the authentic continuation of the story.

Don’t Expect Day One Switch 2 Reviews And Here’s Why

Nintendo has clarified their decision, though it seems puzzling. It’s worth mentioning that companies aren’t obligated to provide review units, either for games or consoles. However, given the prominence of this particular launch, it’s surprising not to see any review units distributed.

The Future of the Native Xbox Handheld No Longer Seems Certain

According to Jez Corden from Windows Central in March, the Asus Xbox handheld (Project Kennan) is expected to release this year, functioning similar to an Xbox-branded ROG Ally. This means it would primarily support PC games and not games designed for Xbox consoles natively. In contrast, Microsoft’s own handheld device, set to launch alongside the next-generation Xbox in 2027, is rumored to play Xbox console games and might even come with a docking station, similar to the Nintendo Switch. However, it seems there is uncertainty as to whether Microsoft’s handheld will indeed be released.

The Outer Worlds 2 Pre-Order Details Leak Early

2025 is shaping up to be an incredible year for RPG gamers like me, as I’ve got two epic games from Obsidian Entertainment on my radar – first being “Avowed”, which dropped in February, and now, it’s time for “The Outer Worlds 2”! Remember when Obsidian unveiled this space-faring RPG during their E3 2021 showcase? Well, they kept mum about it for years until it resurfaced with a gameplay trailer at The Game Awards 2024.

In that event, they announced a 2025 release window for “The Outer Worlds 2”, causing quite a stir among fans since “Avowed” was already slated to be their big RPG of the year. Many doubted if this second game would actually arrive in 2025. But with Obsidian revealing tons of official gameplay footage recently and a significant presence at Xbox’s showcase Direct, it seems like they’re on track for that release date. I can hardly wait to explore the galaxies of “The Outer Worlds 2” later this year!

HBO Harry Potter Hagrid Actor Nick Frost Won’t Copy Robbie Coltrane

The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is a collection of seven fantasy novels from Britain. These books were transformed into eight films: “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone” (2001), “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets” (2002), “Harry Potter and the Azkaban Prisoner” (2004), “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire” (2005), “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix” (2007), “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” (2009), “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1” (2010) and “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2” (2011). It’s been around 15 years since viewers last saw magic in theaters, but the series’ appeal remains strong. Now, fans are thrilled as HBO is producing a TV show based on this successful franchise, planned for seven seasons, with each season corresponding to a book. Fans anticipate it will delve into aspects that were left out due to time constraints in the movies. Not long ago, one cast member revealed their strategies for depicting their character.

Himawari Could Surpass Boruto in Power and Shape the Future of Naruto Story

I’m right in the thick of an exhilarating clash between Boruto Uzumaki and Jura, a confrontation that could significantly impact the trajectory of this series. At the moment, it seems like Jura has the advantage, but fans are buzzing with anticipation, believing that Boruto will find a way to respond. Maybe Mitsuki will step in and shift the tide of this battle altogether.

World of Warcraft Still Has a Fun Yet Frustrating Feature

Although it’s not often highlighted, there seems to be a slight inconsistency between the game’s appearance and its mechanics, which can feel discordant. This discrepancy might not have a significant impact on the overall gameplay, but it does influence player decision-making. It appears that allowing Survival Hunters to dual-wield melee weapons could enhance their tactical possibilities, aligning with their role as agile, close-combat specialists in the game. However, for some reason, this feature is missing, which restricts the variety of build choices and contradicts the visual design expectations set by World of Warcraft.
