For a few weeks, the expected Nintendo Switch 2, a new console of the Great N that officially arrives on June 5, 2025, began its presale in different markets, including Chilean. Country where it has begun to sell at a value of $ 629,990 pesos and $ 689,990 with the Mario Kart world game, but without achieving its stocks, with many stores where it is still available.
Something that is totally different from what Nintendo fans residents live in countries such as the United States, Japan and the United Kingdom, where Switch 2 is almost impossible to reserve.
Players immediately exhaust the stock in several countries
The new console of the Japanese company has generated a huge expectation in both in the United Kingdom and the United States, which has led multiple retailers to exhaust stocks in a matter of hours. However, some stores have launched limited repositions in recent weeks.
According to reports of different Game media, the reserves of the expected Nintendo Switch 2 in the official My Nintendo Store store in the United Kingdom were sold out in a few hours after opening to the general public. Initially, the units were only available by invitation, but Nintendo decided to expand access this May 7, causing a flood of orders that exhausted the stock quickly.

- Walmart, GameStop, Target, Best Buy: reservas agotadas
- Sam’s Club: Rates on Way
- My Nintendo Store: It is possible to register to receive an invitation

Meanwhile, in Japan, the very high demand has led the main reticists to impose drastic restrictions to access reserves. After a first lottery in the official Nintendo store that brought together more than 2.2 million applicants, several businesses have established specific conditions to limit participation.
One of them reserved access to their pre -sale system for Platinum and VIP members of their fidelity program. To achieve the platinum category, it is necessary to have made a purchase of more than 150,000 yen ($ 1,030) or have bought in at least five different days during the last year. In addition, many Japanese stores have implemented identity checks and strict limitations of a request per person to combat resale and hoarding
-This is how everything indicates that getting a Nintendo Switch 2 The day of launch will be a complicated task worldwide, but apparently not in Chile, where we advance, it is possible to reserve it without problems in different retail stores.
While around the world they fight, in Chile it is still possible to buy a Switch 2 in presale

This includes presales available on platforms such as Mercado Libre, where it is also officially offered, with available units. Even some stores sell them with payment facilities and minor prices to the suggested for our country.
A different trend than we mentioned is lived in other places, which must have the main price with which it is marketed in Chile, making the direct comparison with the original value of the Nintendo Switch 2. And in addition, the Switch 2 becomes one of the most expensive consoles available in our country. For example, the 1TB PlayStation 5 of Sony can be found at $ 555,000 pesos in its original version with 2 games.
Finally and for now, the current panorama indicates that units are available in Chile of the Nintendo Switch 2, but when it officially arrives in the country on June 5 we do not know if it will do so at the same price, although the current one has already frightened some.
