Is Nintendo playing chicken with Switch 2 consumers in the U.S.? Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa just revealed that the company received 2.2 million applications to preorder the Nintendo Switch 2, and it cannot by any means fulfill that many orders.
“This number far exceeds our expectations, and far exceeds the number of Nintendo Switch 2 consoles that can be delivered from the My Nintendo Store on June 5,” Furukawa wrote on X via Nintendo’s official Japanese account.
