Switch 2 UK Pre-Orders Are Being Cancelled One Week Before Launch
- UK retailer Game cancelled some Nintendo Switch 2 pre-orders on May 29, one week before the console's June 5 release date.
- The cancellations followed high demand and sold-out initial stock, though Game did not specify the reason or affected customer numbers.
- Game issued an apology on social media and stated it is making every effort to restore as many cancelled pre-orders as it can amid customer dissatisfaction.
- Nintendo acknowledged demand "far exceeded our prior expectations," and many UK retailers have limited or no new Switch 2 pre-orders available.
- These cancellations imply potential stock shortages in the UK that could restrict consumer access at launch and heighten competition for the console.
