You’re excited to finally possess your new Switch 2, but why stop here? The top Switch 2 accessories will help you maximize enjoyment from the new Nintendo console—if you’re able to get one at all.
The hype surrounding the Nintendo Switch 2 has been quite the ride. Initially, came the announcement, followed by a tariff delay, and then disorder during the pre-order phase. We also bemoaned the price ($80 for Mario Kart World?), but moved on after juxtaposing it with our grocery expenses. After all, it’s 2025, and don’t we deserve something nice?
If you’ve successfully locked in a Switch 2 pre-order that remains intact, we applaud you. If not, there’s always the option of standing in line at a store on launch day. You can also refer to our guide on where to purchase the Switch 2 online now that it has been officially released.

Eventually, we’ll all have the chance to get our hands on a new Nintendo Switch 2. And when that moment arrives, we require accessories.

Additionally, with the new social GameChat functionalities, a proper webcam is vital to fully embrace the latest Switch 2 features.
