Having the Nintendo Switch 2 reserved does not guarantee that you will have it at launch

Nintendo is in the eye of the storm due to various criticisms related to the price of the new Switch 2 console and the cost of physical games.

Despite many establishments having fully booked, users do not seem satisfied with the decisions made by the Japanese company.

In some stores, they have started to organize waiting lists for players eager to get the console, highlighting the high interest it has generated.

In Spain, we have not suffered any cancellations

However, the situation has taken an unexpected turn in the United States, where some consumers have reported that their confirmed orders of the Nintendo Switch 2 have disappeared from Walmart’s website. This situation has left many users without access to their reservations, causing frustration and discontent, especially among those who just want to enjoy the new console.

It is speculated that a new automated system implemented by Walmart to combat reselling could be the reason behind the cancellation of these orders.

This system, although intended to prevent speculation, has had adverse consequences for consumers who were only looking to acquire the product legitimately. The affected individuals have expressed their discontent on social media, putting Walmart in the spotlight.

Despite the difficulties in the United States, it is estimated that the situation in Spain is more favorable, and similar cancellations have not arisen in that market. However, uncertainty persists, and users are wondering if what happened in the U.S. could be replicated in other territories.

Meanwhile, Walmart has not officially commented on the matter, leaving many users in a state of confusion about the future of their orders.
