GameStop (GME) faced significant technical challenges last week as preorders for the Nintendo Switch 2 went live, with overwhelming demand causing website outages and frustrating customers.
According to a report from MarketWatch, the videogame retailer’s online platform crashed with “bad gateway” error messages when preorders launched. GameStop later acknowledged these issues on social media, citing “overwhelming demand” while its team worked on fixes.
