The Nintendo Switch 2’s price will bring sticker shock to fans. With a starting price of $449, it’s one of the most expensive machines that the company has put up for sale. The barebones system won’t come with any games, and it will have minimal accessories included with the box.

Backward compatibility is one of the Nintendo Switch 2’s strongest features. The console supports most existing Nintendo Switch titles, allowing you to continue enjoying your current library without interruptions. Additionally, several games have been optimized for the new hardware, offering improved graphics and enhanced performance.

Both Walmart and Target hosted their own online Nintendo Switch 2 restocks late last week, running out of stock at around midnight on Friday night. With Best Buy and GameStop keeping their units in-store only, that could mean things might be quiet for a little while here.
