Nintendo Switch 2 Games: Where to Buy
Games, games, games. It's what a new console is all about. Well, kinda. Nintendo Switch 2 is already building a stacked library of games, blending shiny new exclusives with upgraded re-releases of fan favorites. Heavyweights like Donkey Kong Bananza ($69.99) and Mario Kart World ($79.99) are leading the charge.
It's also a brilliant opportunity to check out games you already own and see if the game has vastly improved on the new hardware, like Pokémon Scarlet and Violet incredible performance boost. Let's not forget that the Switch 2 Edition of Pokémon Legends: Z-A is also now up for preorder.
You can also pick up games you might have no got the chance to play over the past generation, or were simply waiting for better hardware to play them on, such as enhanced versions of Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, fine-tuned for the new hardware.
Switch 2 Accessories: Where to Buy
Accessories for the Switch 2 are just as important as the console itself, as many will make or break your experience with the new console.
For starters, I'd recommend anyone who hasn't already got a Pro Controller, to pick one up ASAP, as it'll make gaming on the console much easier while it's docked and connected to your TV or monitor.
Otherwise, my next big suggestion to pick up a microSD Express Card soon as well, preferably the 256GB version as it's the best value for money right now. Walmart has some excellent deals on those right now, so it's worth picking up.
Third Party Accessory Deals
If costs are already starting to rack up, and your looking to save a little cash on your carry case or screen protector (just don't take the pre-installed one off when you do), then third party accessories are an excellent option.
There are also some great Switch 2 deals already floating around on several top brands like JSAUX and Anker, so be sure to check those out as well as the official Nintendo accessories listings above.

Switch 2: Latest News Updates
GameStop has begun replacing Nintendo Switch 2 consoles that were punctured with staples during shipping, impacted customers have told IGN. “GameStop did right by me,” one fan said. “They traded it in for a new system.
They must’ve sent a shipment of Switch 2s to that location today to fix the staple problem.”
Another customer confirmed their console was also swapped out, saying staff pulled spare stock from nearby stores to provide immediate replacements. This follows GameStop’s statement to IGN yesterday pledging to “make customers whole”.
Meanwhile, the $10 Switch 2 Welcome Tour mini-game collection, available now alongside the new console, has drawn criticism for requiring at least $95 worth of accessories to complete 100%.
The collection includes mini-games built around Switch 2’s new camera and GL/GR buttons, which only work with a Charging Grip or Pro Controller (sold separately). And if you want to experience the 4K showcase games in full? You’ll need a 4K TV too.
