There's a direct quote from the company.

According to a statement sent to The Verge by Eddie Garcia on behalf of Nintendo, it says preorders will no longer begin on April 9th:

"Pre-orders for Nintendo Switch 2 in the U.S. will not start April 9, 2025 in order to assess the potential impact of tariffs and evolving market conditions. Nintendo will update timing at a later date. The launch date of June 5, 2025 is unchanged."

I'm also in Europe.

Thanks.
But that's weird, now I see it immediately, it's clearly there 2nd paragraph? Also a search finds it no problem?
Neither were the case yesterday?

I have no idea why it didn't work yesterday?
