Pre-orders will begin on April 9, and while it’s unclear if other retailers will follow suit, Best Buy's midnight event could serve as a highlight for fans eager to play games like Mario Kart World. Promotions for subscribers aim to sweeten the deal amidst the high costs of new hardware and games.
Best Buy will open stores at 12:01 a.m. ET for pre-orders of the Nintendo Switch 2 and launch games, reviving old-school midnight launches.
