Despite Trump's customs chaos, the pre-orders of the Switch 2 should start shortly in both the USA and Canada.
Donald Trump's customs policy has turned the global economy upside down. Due to the unclear effects on the price, Nintendo subsequently initially suspended the pre -order start for Switch 2 in the USA; This step was later extended to the adjacent Canada. On the release on June 5, 2025, it was always detached from it - also in the United States.
Now there is light at the end of the tunnel for American interested parties, regarding the start of the pre -orders of the Switch 2. As the well-informed Dataminer and Leaker Billbil-Kun now reported, there are newly likely dates in both above.
From April 23, 2025, Canada should be possible to order the new Nintendo console in advance in order to secure a specimen on the release day. In the USA it may also start next week - depending on which dealers you use. For some dealers, April 21, 2025 can be found as a new pre-order start, for others April 30, 2025. Either way: In North America, the customs chaos will soon be going!
Accessories for Switch 2 should have selected dealers ordered in the United States from April 30th. However, a mystery remains until further notice whether it remains at the originally communicated price for the console and the other end devices. After all, there are no customs exceptions for the Switch 2, which is mainly manufactured in China, which is why all punitive tariffs should be due. Is that why Nintendo also increases the sales price noticeably?
