The upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 is set to launch at a price of $449.99, with pre-orders starting on April 24. GameStop is facilitating a trade-in program for those looking to offset the cost by trading in their old Switch models. This program will kick off in stores at regular hours and online at 11 a.m. EDT on the same day, running until April 30.
Trade-In Credit Details
GameStop allows customers to redeem trade-in credit towards the purchase of the Nintendo Switch 2. The amount of credit offered will vary based on the specific model of the original Switch being traded in. Here’s the breakdown of trade-in values for each model:
GameStop Pro Member Benefits
For GameStop Pro members, there is an additional incentive: an extra 10% added to the standard trade-in credit amounts. This can significantly enhance the value received when trading in a console.
Modifying Pre-Orders
If you pre-order the Switch 2 but later decide to trade in your old device, you can modify your reservation to take advantage of the increased trade-in value through April 30. However, to qualify for the advertised valuations, customers must present all required items at the time of trade-in. Lack of these items may result in a lower trade-in value for the console.
