It took over a month, but Amazon’s listings for the Nintendo Switch 2 have finally changed. The pages went up way later than most other retailers, a couple of weeks after the console released, but they didn’t have buy buttons. They still don’t have buy buttons, but they do now have a “Request invite” button, which hints that the Switch 2 may finally be coming to Amazon. You can visit the listing and submit your request now.

It’s unclear how long it will take for invitations to purchase Nintendo’s new device to start going out. It’s also anyone’s guess as to how many Switch 2 consoles Amazon will receive.

Amazon and Nintendo haven’t had the smoothest relationship in recent years, with first-party Nintendo games not being available with Amazon as the seller. It was only a few weeks ago (after the Switch 2 was already out) when first-party Nintendo Switch 2 games began appearing on Amazon again. And while some reports suggested the missing Nintendo listings were due to a spat over third-party sales, Nintendo denied this report.

In any case, lots of online shoppers seem to prefer to make their purchases at Amazon. And if this new “Request invite” button on the Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundle listing is an indication that the tensions are lowering, that’s good news for consumers.

Ongoing Prime Day Deals

The Switch 2 listing change happened to take place at the start of Amazon Prime Day 2025. Is it related? Likely not. But if you’re in the market for accessories and games, now’s a great time to stock up. For those who’d like to avoid the Switch 2 price tag, used editions of the original Switch OLED are currently on sale for $208, while Best Buy has tons of discounts on Switch games.
