That's according to internal emails and documents provided to Insider Gaming from a large U.S. retailer who are anticipating they will sell out of the Switch 2 on the same day they open up the pre-orders due to a limited number of units allocated for Nintendo.

According to the documents, the Nintendo Switch 2 is scheduled to release in June, a release month that has already been widely rumored and was a highly talked about. And was a highly talked about by developers at GDC this year. That's not on me.

That's not on Tom. It wasn't on you.

No, that was a longer sentence. However, the documents do add a little confusion as to when the pre-orders go live, especially following the Best Buy Canada leak earlier this week that revealed they'd go up live on April 2nd. According to the documents from U.S. retailer, pre-orders are set to go live on April 9th, one week after the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct.

The documents include messaging strategy following the Direct to include pre-order coming soon, messaging, and a countdown clock that will end on April 9th with an exact time to be confirmed by Nintendo on April 2nd. The document also included details on an exclusive collectible coin for those who pre-ordered the console. Whether or not Best Buy Canada's leak was a mistake or not, it is unclear.

But the company did promptly remove the information after it started circulating online. In any case, though, pre-orders are almost certainly going to go live within a week of the Direct. Take it to the bank 1,000%. It's not the direct day. Yeah, no. It's definitely going to be a week.

No game in the company's history has sold more after a month on sale. Wilds was already the fastest selling game in Capcom history. And let me tell you, if you haven't watched Game Showdown from Friday, go watch it. But the amount of times I've chuckled to myself with the Capcom question... Fuck, I was like, ah, that was really smart. I appreciate it. I appreciate it.
