With pre-orders for the Nintendo Switch 2 officially going live on April 24, GameStop is giving fans a chance to save big. The retailer has unveiled generous trade-in values for older Switch consoles, offering up to $175 in credit when used toward the upcoming system.
According to GameStop’s latest promotion, customers can receive:
-
$175 for trading in a Switch OLED
-
$125 for a standard Switch
-
$100 for a Switch Lite
These boosted values are available only to those pre-ordering the Nintendo Switch 2 between April 24 and April 30, either in-store or online. Even customers who already placed a pre-order prior to trading in are eligible for the bonus credit.
GameStop’s decision comes just weeks after Nintendo’s Switch 2 Direct event on April 2, where the new console’s official June 5 release date was confirmed. Originally delayed due to tariff complications, Switch 2 pre-orders are now ramping up quickly across major retailers.
This trade-in opportunity is ideal for those looking to upgrade without breaking the bank. It also allows players to clear space and put older hardware to good use—something longtime Nintendo fans are likely to appreciate.
📌 Don’t Miss Out
With only a seven-day window to take advantage of this enhanced trade-in offer, interested gamers should act fast. Whether you own a Switch Lite or the high-end OLED model, GameStop’s promotion is a valuable way to lock in your upgrade and be ready for the next generation of Nintendo gaming.
