🎮 Nintendo Switch 2 is online at Target starting June 6 Pro tip: Act fast. With high demand and limited stock, the Nintendo Switch 2 won't stay on shelves for long.
Gamers, the wait is finally over. The Nintendo Switch 2 is officially available to purchase online at Target starting Friday, June 6. In-store availability began on Thursday, June 5, but online access means you can skip the lines and shop from your couch.
Following a wave of pre-order delays and tariff-related setbacks earlier this spring, Nintendo fans can now get their hands on the next-gen console that's redefining hybrid gaming. The Switch 2 retails for $449.99 and has sold out within hours of launching at retailers like Walmart and GameStop.
We expect the Target release to sell out just as quickly due to limited inventory and massive demand.

Digital Foundry: Nintendo's free Switch 2 game updates are more like remasters.
Digital Foundry: Nintendo's free Switch 2 game updates are more like remasters. The folks at Digital Foundry have done more pixel counting , this time looking into the first-party Switch 1 games with upgrades we also found impressive . While Switch 2 Edition upgrades for games like Breath of the Wild cost extra, they found that these updates to games like Splatoon 3, Super Mario Odyssey, and The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening make the games' artwork better, thanks to running at higher framerates and with higher resolution. Is that exactly good enough for the new system?

Here's what a Nintendo superfan says about the new Switch 2
Nintendo's new Switch 2 is already off to a strong start – selling over 3.5 million consoles in just its first four days. I've been testing it out to see what's new and how it compares to the original. The Switch 2 builds on what made the original so popular – portability, flexibility, and a huge library of great games. But it adds a bunch of smart upgrades. First off, the screen is bigger. So is the unit itself – but it's still manageable to hold. The controllers now attach magnetically instead of sliding in, and that in itself is a big improvement. 'On this one it's just like a nice little snap and you're done,' said Nintendo fan Henry Mayhew, who helped me put the Switch 2 through its paces. He bought his console on day one. The dock is redesigned and adds to the system's versatility. You can play on your TV in up to 4K, take it on the go for HD graphics, or prop it up tabletop style. The controllers even work like a mouse now. Buttons feel better, the software runs faster, and graphics, haptics, and sound are all improved. 'The graphics are definitely improved and then it's more engaging to play' said Mayhew. Another big upgrade is game sharing. Downloadable titles now act as virtual game cards, which means you can share them with friends or use them across profiles. 'It's really nice not having the other person to have to have the game for you to be able to play it with them,' Mayhew said. One standout new feature is GameChat. It lets you voice chat while playing, and even plug in a USB-C camera. There's a new 'C' button to activate it. It's free through March 2026, and kids under 16 will need parental controls enabled to use it. 'I mean it's pretty fun…' said Mayhew. The only real downside? Battery life. 'Controllers… those will last you a decade,' said Mayhew. 'But then the battery life on the Switch 2… that only lasts 2–6 hours, and for me personally, it only lasts 3 hours before I have to dock it or plug it in again.' The Switch 2 starts at $450 – or $500 with the new Mario Kart bundled. The next big release? Donkey Kong Bananza, coming mid-July for $70. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Kobo's Libra Colour and Elipsa 2E e-readers have dropped to some of their best prices
Kobo is discounting two of its best e-readers. The Kobo Elipsa 2E, a competitor to the Kindle Scribe, is available for an all-time low of $349.99 ($50 off) from Rakuten Kobo and Target. Meanwhile, the Kobo Libra Colour is available for $209.99 ($20 off) from Amazon, Target, and Rakuten Kobo. The sale runs through July 10th. The Kobo Elipsa 2E is my top pick for taking notes while reading. Its spacious 10.3-inch display lets you write directly on ebook pages — whether in margins, between lines, or wherever inspiration strikes — giving you a natural, paper-like experience. While Amazon's Kindle Scribe supports on-page writing, its tools are far more limited; you can't freely annotate, circle text, or mark up pages with the same ease. For anyone wanting an e-reader that doubles as a digital notebook, the Elipsa 2E offers a more intuitive and versatile experience. The Kobo Elipsa 2E is an ad-free 10.3-inch e-reader you can write on with the included stylus. It offers a whole host of useful features, like the ability to convert handwriting to typed text and a great selection of pen types. Meanwhile, the Kobo Libra Colour is worth a look if you want something smaller but still feature-packed. Like the Kindle Colorsoft, it features a compact 7-inch color display that makes highlights, annotations, and comics pop compared to monochrome screens. Although the Colorsoft's hues are slightly more vibrant, the Libra Colour provides a pleasant, easy-on-the-eyes experience. It also includes physical page-turn buttons and stylus compatibility (sold separately), allowing you to mark up text or jot notes — features that the Colorsoft lacks despite costing more. Kobo's main drawback is the lack of native Kindle book support, but it makes up for this with broader file format compatibility and support for direct borrowing from public libraries through OverDrive. Plus, if you don't mind a few extra steps, you can always convert Kindle books for use on Kobo devices. The Libra Colour is one of the newest e-readers from Kobo and one of the first with color. With both OverDrive and Pocket support, it gives readers considerably more options than e-readers from bigger brands like Amazon.
