The Switch 2 is coming to Walmart tonight at 9PM ET — but there's a catch

Walmart has confirmed that the Switch 2 will be available on its site tonight at 9PM ET, but the first hour of availability will only be open to paid Walmart+ members. So, in order to potentially add the new Nintendo console to your cart, you'll need to be a full Walmart+ member (free trial members aren't eligible).

The good news? That privilege will only cost you $13 per month (or $98, if you want to take the plunge for a full year). That's not bad when you consider that opting for the Switch 2 from third-party retailers on Walmart will set you back almost $800. And in addition to granting early access to hard-to-find items like the Switch 2, Walmart+ includes several perks including free delivery (including grocery and pharmacy items), discounts on gas purchases and even a complementary Paramount+ subscription.
