Earlier this week, details about the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 were officially unveiled, including its pricing and release dates. Additionally, pre-orders for the new console were scheduled to start next week. However, due to Donald Trump’s tariffs causing significant economic disruptions, Nintendo has decided to delay the pre-order dates for the Nintendo Switch 2 in order to assess their potential impact on the console. Despite this change, the June release date for the Switch 2 remains unchanged.
Information about the postponement of Nintendo Switch 2’s pre-orders was shared by GameSpot, as they received a statement from Nintendo concerning this topic.
According to Nintendo, pre-orders for the Nintendo Switch 2 in the U.S. won’t begin on April 9, 2025. This is because they want to evaluate the possible effects of tariffs and changing market conditions before setting a new date. They will announce the new start date at a later time. The original launch date of June 5, 2025 remains unchanged.

It’s uncertain what the pricing for the Nintendo Switch 2 will be in the US. The initial reveal of a $450 USD price tag and $80 cost for Mario Kart World caused some hesitation among consumers. However, it appears that Nintendo has been preparing for changes in the U.S.’s international economy for some time, and the early pricing announcement might have been a response to prolonged volatility and instability in the video game industry. Despite this, Nintendo seems to be adopting an even more conservative approach, suggesting they are still cautious about their pricing strategy.
While we wait for the announced pre-order date of the Nintendo Switch 2, keep an eye on this subject for all the recent news, updates, and comprehensive insights.
