Nintendo Switch 2 pre-orders are live at Argos.
Latest update
Switch 2 pre-orders are back up at Argos as of the morning of April 8, so we’ve refreshed this article.
The UK chain has officially put both the standard model of the Nintendo Switch 2 and the Mario Kart World bundle up for pre-order, with a guarantee that they will deliver on release day.
Customers can pre-order the system, but Argos requires full payment upfront, unlike most retailers. Argos is also charging customers a delivery fee of £6.95.
The Switch 2 can currently be pre-ordered at Argos at a price of £395.99 for the console on its own, or £429.99 for the bundle containing a digital copy of Mario Kart World.
Switch 2 will be released worldwide on Thursday, June 5.
Other UK retailers have begun their pre-order campaign with Smyths quickly selling out of its allocation yesterday.
Elsewhere, the official My Nintendo Store will be launching its pre-orders on April 8, and is in the process of emailing select Nintendo Switch players in the UK and Europe, offering them the chance to pre-order first.
According to a notice on the My Nintendo Store website: “To reward the most dedicated Nintendo Switch players in Europe and the UK, the opportunity to pre-order a Nintendo Switch 2 console from My Nintendo Store will initially be offered on an invite-only basis to selected Nintendo Switch Online members.”
The first round of invites will be sent out depending on whether users have been a Switch Online member for at least two years, have spent a certain amount of time playing Switch games, and has opted in to receive email messages from Nintendo.
The Nintendo Switch 2 Direct took place today, providing a wealth of information about the Switch 2 hardware and software. We’ve rounded up all the news you need to know about Nintendo’s next system.
