U.S. preorders for the Nintendo Switch 2 kicked off shortly after the clock struck midnight Thursday. However, chaos soon ensued amid the overwhelming demand from eager gamers. Many hopeful buyers found themselves facing frustrating delays and technical glitches as they attempted to secure their units.
Websites experienced significant traffic, leading to crashes and extended loading times, which only heightened the disappointment for fans who had been eagerly awaiting this moment. Reports of sold-out inventories surfaced within minutes, leaving countless individuals empty-handed.
