Picked one up at target around 10 this morning. Still have some available. Looks like supply is out there.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

It's so far out from Xmas that I have to think whether I just let the family have this now or try to save it for Xmas.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Give to them now!

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Also anyone else that got this from Walmart get a free can of pringles and a coke? I'm not the only one looking at other posts but I didn't even realize this was part of a deal or something.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

i didn't. But, I did see the driver swigging some soda or something. i wonder...

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

yeah it was an awesome little bonus that wasn’t even advertised. So far I think Walmarts the winner. But I didn’t see those coins they had at Best Buy.

Are you joking? Mine came with a Coke so if that’s what he was drinking…

Costco has the pro controller for $75. It’s not much but it’s not nothing.

Walmart has an off brand microSD express card for 256 gb $36 and 512 for $56

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Walked into Best Buy at noon and tripped over one of these. WTF.

nice!!!

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

i honestly couldn't tell you what he was drinking, but me thinks he indulged himself. Which is fine, I don't eat or drink these anyway.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

The coke and pringles were bundled in the package. Doubtful he opened your delivery.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

I just got back from GameStop with my haul. Switch 2 Mario Kart bundle, two Pro Controllers 2 and a Nintendo camera. I am so glad to finally have this in my possession.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

I'm not opening the packages since I am returning them, but there definitely isnt a can of coke or pringles in there with the switch or pro controller.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

both the console and Pro controller just came in separate bag-like packaging.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Yes, and they were in that sealed packaging.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

these download virtual cards take forever. I'm doing 2 and already my battery is at 89%.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

well, i wish i could say i got it, but oh well.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

I mean you're downloading the entire game, right?

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

God it is so nice having a snappy, responsive eshop.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

yes. Switch 1 games never took so long and never drained my battery to now while it's downloading a game is at 84%. Still has 22 minutes to go, but this drain battery factor is something.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

i think all in all, with all the preorder jitters and all the negative talk, now that it's here, everything went so breezy.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Drove over to the Ala Moana shopping center and bought a Switch bundle from Target. Requested cancelation of the delayed one from Walmart. Fuck those guys!

So I will have a Switch 2 to play (briefly) on the flight home.
Unfortunately the last case sold to the guy directly in front of me. :(

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Anecdotally the bundles are sold out in nearby targets but a few still have the individual consoles. Which is ridiculous considering they want to ship my online order a week out.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Anyone shell out for that Welcome Tour?

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Mine is shipping out today, the week out is because they're using FedEx Ground from MN.

Lame. I could have had pringles, two cokes and a Switch 2 by now.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Went to Target to pick up cat food around noon. They still had 15 consoles left (no bundle). Went ahead and grabbed one for myself.

Might be worth checking the Target app to see if any have stock nearby, if possible. Then cancel the online order.

Such a bizarre launch.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

They have grips for the GameCube controller. I had no idea they existed, but sure enough. Love my grips.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

The problem is I can't cancel the online order, even though it hasn't shipped yet. Apparently you can chat to complain and get up to 10% off but I wasn't so lucky.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

I did. At the end of the day I decided why not. Won’t get my Switch 2 until tomorrow though.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Okay so I tried to do the transfer but got stuck because it wanted both switches plugged into "AC adapter" and I don't have that big brick charging plug for the Switch 1 with me right now. I would assume that a regular USB charging block would work, but it doesn't. Not sure what to do now. 😞

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

dude, I had the same problem. I just used a spare usb to usb-c cable for SW2 and left og in its dock. Go to transfer to Switch 2 from your Switch 1, I believe. And then go to settings on SW2 and hit receive transfer from another console. I think that’s what did it ultimately though, is just hooking up usb-c to one console and then both have power. I think. Please don’t hate me if I’m wrong.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Just as a side note, I’m really glad most got what they wanted out of today and there weren’t too many horror stories. And I do feel for the ones still waiting. But all in all it kinda tickles me that it worked out for most of us.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

That would work perfectly for me, except that my Switch dock is a little too far from the current location of my Switch 2.




re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Yeah, it says they have to be near each other in order to transfer. Sorry Deck. But, if I’m mistaken and you’re near old Switch, just plug usbc into SW2 and it should work. You can use the usb port on og Switch to plug in new Switch. But it has to be usb on one side of wire and usbc on other side.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Return after delivery? A lot of money to be out of pocket in the meantime though.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

I did, although I haven’t really done anything other than the first HD Rumble quiz.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Mine comes tomorrow from GameStop, but my pro controller was just delivered. Had to open it and get it fully charged for tomorrow, it has a nice feel to it. Looking forward to some Mario Kart and the copy of Tears of the Kingdom that’s been sitting here since November.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Okay, I will try that when I get back to the condo. 👍
Is there a USB port on the actual Switch unit? I don't have the dock.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Yeah, on the OG Switch and the Switch 2. I didn’t use a dock for either while doing the transfer.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

yeah, I started and stopped with that. Booted up some games but wanna get through the tour first. Lol
