It's been an exciting year for Nintendo Switch fans, and we're only in April!

In January, we were treated to a first-look trailer for the new Nintendo Switch 2, the successor to the much-loved Nintendo Switch 2. Then, we were told there would be an hour-long Nintendo Switch 2 Direct, which took place on Wednesday 2nd April.

It was at the Direct that we were told the Nintendo Switch 2 would be released on Thursday 5th June, with pre-orders officially opening today (Tuesday 8th April).

Plus, our Gaming team travelled to Paris to gather some Nintendo Switch 2 hands-on first impressions. Our Gaming Editor, Rob Leane, was impressed with how lighter and thinner the Nintendo Switch 2 felt, and he could immediately tell the benefits of the bigger (albeit not OLED) screen.

The Nintendo Switch price will be £395.99, but you already know we can do better than that...

The RadioTimes.com team are experts in finding the best deals for consoles and devices. For example, we constantly monitor prices for the items we know you love, such as in our Nintendo Switch offers guide, and because we keep a keen ear to the ground for the latest savings, we can spot a good deal a mile off!

We work hard to find you the items you love for less or with a perk, such as a free subscription or accessory, and the Nintendo Switch 2 is no different.

Why we chose it: When it comes to items that you know will sell out, it's always a toss-up between ordering straight away so you don't miss out, and waiting to see if there's a better price. With Amazon's price guarantee, you avoid the heartache of seeing that you could've potentially saved money.
