Just saw this Best Buy alert about Nintendo Switch 2s popping up online again. These things flew off the shelves faster than candy at Halloween. Seems like everybody and their grandma wants one, and honestly, who could blame them? It’s the hottest gadget out there this year.
Like, I heard if you’re not glued to your screen checking every five minutes, poof, gone. It’s your ticket to surviving college dorm life — trust me. Nothing beats unwinding with some Mario Kart after cramming for exams. Maybe this time around, you might actually snag one. Well, maybe.
Even though they got a shipment, who knows how many are actually in? Best Buy is keeping it hush-hush. You can order online now, but wanna pick it up in-store? Good luck — check each store like it’s some kind of scavenger hunt. They’ve got both the standalone console and a bundle with Mario Kart World. Oh, and they’re at MSRP, which is $449 and $499. Hope you weren’t expecting a discount — ain’t happening.
Oh, wait. There’s a Pokémon Legends: Z-A bundle coming too, but only for pre-order. So, if you’re into that, make a note. The Switch 2 ditches the OLED for a slightly larger 7.9-inch screen and boosts the resolution to 1080p — sounds fancy. Dock it, and boom, you’re suddenly playing games in 4K. No dock? You still get HDR and up to 120 frames per second. Not too shabby.
When will these beauties stop being as rare as a unicorn? Hard to say. Stocks are slowly catching up, but don’t hold your breath. And hey, pay attention to those prices. If someone’s trying to gouge you, skip it and wait for the real deal.
For you deal-hunters, if the Switch 2 doesn’t set your heart racing, we’ve got pages of best buys in PC hardware: SSDs, hard drives, monitors, you name it. Okay… I got distracted. Where was I? Ah, who cares.
Go grab one before they vanish — again!
