Nintendo Pulls Switch 2 From Amazon. Here's Why, when It's Back in Stock Online

  • Nintendo launched the Switch 2 on June 5, 2025, achieving a record-breaking sale of 3.5 million units in four days, but the console is unavailable on Amazon's US website.
  • Reports claimed that Nintendo withdrew its products from Amazon US over conflicts involving third-party sellers undercutting prices, but both Nintendo and Amazon have denied these allegations.
  • Amazon confirmed it continues selling Switch 2 in foreign markets like Canada, Japan, and the UK and stated it is committed to offering Nintendo products directly to customers.
  • Nintendo stated, "There is no such fact" regarding the reported dispute and refused to disclose negotiation details, while Amazon called Bloomberg's claims inaccurate without elaborating.
  • The absence of Switch 2 on Amazon US highlights ongoing tensions regarding third-party sales, pushing customers to seek the console through other US retailers like Best Buy and Walmart.
