A prolific hardware leaker has just offered what might be the first major update on Nintendo Switch 2 pre-orders in North America, suggesting that a date has been set for early orders in Canada. There's no confirmation about whether the date will be the same in the US, but those eager for the Switch 2 are keeping their fingers crossed.

"From what I can see through some Canadian retailers, Nintendo Switch 2 console & bundle pre-orders should start from April 23rd, 2025" in Canada, according to billbil-kun on Bluesky. "Date subject to change. Can't confirm if it's the same for US. I'll keep you updated if it changes."
