Walmart has the Switch 2 in stock, but theres a catch
As of Thursday, June 12, Walmart had Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundles for sale, though only via third-party sellers.
Let's start with something positive: As of this writing, Walmart has both the Nintendo Switch 2 console and the Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle in stock.
So, what's the catch? According to the product listing pages, the new Nintendo consoles are being sold by third-party sellers — and with jacked-up prices. The bundle normally retails at Walmart for $499, but it's currently listed for sale from seller "GAMES FOR US" for $749. The $449 console is listed for sale for $672, a $223 increase.
The last we checked, Walmart said only six of the bundles were left in stock, and buyers are limited to one purchase per order. The console on its own is also low in stock.
This is the first time we've seen a Switch 2 product listing page with an honest-to-gosh "Add to cart" button since Target started selling the console online on June 6.
Now, here at Mashable, we do not recommend feeding trolls, wild animals, or price gougers. However, this is such a rare sight, we wanted to update our daily Switch 2 restock tracker with the news.
To be honest, we knew this day was coming. Eager resellers were already listing the Switch 2 for sale on sites like eBay before the launch even happened. It was only a matter of time until price gougers and third-party sellers started listing the Switch 2 at higher prices.
After the June 5 launch, Nintendo announced it had sold 3.5 million in a week, surpassing even the very high expectations. With high demand and limited supplies, this news was inevitable.
See the sight for yourself at Walmart.
