The Nintendo Switch 2 has been spotted at retailers ahead of its June release - but the reported stock numbers aren't huge

The Nintendo Switch 2 has been spotted at US retailers days before its official release.
As reported by VGC, an alleged employee of Target shared a now-deleted Reddit post (via X/Twitter) showcasing numerous Switch 2 consoles in their packaging available in-store, albeit locked inside a cage so no one can get their hands on one.
The user claimed the store had received 40 consoles, 20 regular and 20 Mario Kart World bundles, confirming that the highly anticipated device is now being distributed to retailers across the US.
The Nintendo Switch 2 launches globally on June 5, 2025, for $449.99 / £395.99, and $499.99 / £429.99 for the official Mario Kart World bundle, which comes with a digital copy of the game.
Multiple first-party games like Mario Kart World, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (Switch 2 Edition), and Tears of the Kingdom (Switch 2 Edition) will also launch the same day, alongside a collection of third-party titles like Cyberpunk 2077, Split Fiction, Fortnite, and more.
Target stores are receiving their Switch 2 stock and apparently as long as it’s locked in a cage they don’t mind leaving it in the middle of the floor!
