Following a tariff-induced delay, retailers officially kicked off Nintendo Switch 2 preorders on Thursday. I could tell you that preorders went smoothly across all stores, and that there was plenty of stock for everyone who wanted one of Nintendo's new consoles. I could tell you that, but I'd be lying.
At the moment, Switch 2 stock is pretty depleted. If you search online, you'll likely see a number of "Sold Out" or "Unavailable" alerts where the "Buy Now" button should be. However, just because stores no longer have Switch 2 units to reserve for you at this time, that doesn't mean they'll be out for good. Successfully preordering a Switch 2 might just come down to being in the right place at the right time—something you can plan for, if you're savvy.
Walmart, Target, GameStop, and Best Buy all have sign-up options on their websites to opt into restock alerts. These vary depending on the site: Walmart and Target require you to log into your associated accounts in order to enroll in notifications. GameStop offers email alerts, as does Best Buy—though the latter only seems to offer general Switch 2 news via email, rather than alerts for individual product restocks.

Register for Nintendo's offer
Nintendo is selling Switch 2 units as well, but isn't offering preorders. Instead, you can "register your interest" to buy a Switch 2 from the company. In order to qualify, you need a Nintendo Account with at least 50 hours of game play—as of April 2. It's an odd requirement, but it's designed to prevent scalpers from snatching up all the Switch 2s. (Nintendo doesn't want you to make multiple Nintendo Accounts this month and register each.)
Once you register your interest, Nintendo places you on a list on a first-come, first-serve basis. Since you're a bit late to the game, you might be low on this list, but that's okay: Many of the customers who sign up might be fighting for preorders at other stores too, and if they get it, they may reject Nintendo's invitation—bumping your place up in line. At this time, Nintendo says deliveries might roll past June 5, as well as invitations themselves. Still, it's a great backup in case you're not successful preordering at the other stores.
