The Nintendo Switch OLED pre-orders in the US are about to go live, according to our restock tracker. Here’s how to get it.
Nintendo Switch OLED pre-orders in the US became available this week and quickly sold out, but our 24/7 Nintendo Switch OLED pre-order tracker Matt Swider will send you a Twitter alert when it’s in stock – if you follow his account and turn on notifications. He’s found the new Nintendo console – both the Switch OLED White and Neon – in stock at retailers including Amazon, Target, Best Buy and GameStop. In total, Matt is tracking the Nintendo Switch OLED model at 12 different stores in the US, and while it’s sold out at most retailers today, July 17, you’ll be able to find a Switch OLED model restock on and off for a few minutes to several hours if you’re following his Twiter alerts. ► When?

Click on this example of a Nintendo Switch OLED pre-order alert from Matt Swider. he was able to help hundreds of people buy the Switch OLED model with this tweet. Walmart actually has the Nintendo Switch OLED in stock (as of publishing this story) in the harder-to-find white model. It says that the delivery date is October 9, which is a day later than the actual Nintendo Switch OLED release date Friday, October 8. If you’re fine with that, it’s our top Switch OLED pre-order pick (mainly because it’s in stock in Nintendo’s new flagship color), though we know from the many PS5 restock events that Walmart sometimes (read: often) delays shipments without warning. There’s no telling when Walmart will get in more consoles, if you’re waiting on the Neon color or if Switch OLED white is sold out by the time you check. But our Twitter tracker will keep you informed regardless. The Amazon Nintendo Switch pre-order began a day later than other retailers in the US, starting on Friday, July 16 in the middle of the afternoon. However, some people were able to easily buy the console using this one trick: go to the Amazon product page for the Nintendo Switch OLED in either color and try tapping ‘Add to list’ instead of selecting ‘Add to cart’ which everyone else does. From there select ‘View list’ and if it’s in stock, you’ll have an easier time checking out that way.
