Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa shared a statement today about Japanese pre-orders on the My Nintendo Store in light of significant interest that exceeded the company’s expectations.
According to Furukawa, 2.2 million people registered interest in reserving the system through its official website. That number “far exceeds our expectations and far exceeds the number of Nintendo Switch 2 consoles that can be delivered from the My Nintendo Store on June 5,” Furukawa said. Many customers won’t be selected, but will be automatically enrolled for a second lottery later on.
