The excitement for the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 has already begun, with one dedicated fan, YouTuber Super Cafe, making headlines by camping out at the soon-to-open Nintendo Store in San Francisco. In a video released on April 8, Super Cafe shared his journey of flying over 800 miles to be the first in line on the west coast for the anticipated console release and the store's grand opening on May 15.
Despite having moved into his new apartment just two months prior, Super Cafe humorously acknowledged the financial strain of his decision but remained unfazed, stating, "Terrible financial decision on my end. Whatever, who cares." His commitment mirrors that of another YouTube content creator waiting at the New York store, indicating a growing trend of enthusiasts eager to be first in line for the Nintendo Switch 2.
Super Cafe plans to camp out for the next two months, tackling the challenge mostly solo but inviting others interested in joining him to get in touch. He plans to address questions about his living arrangements, food, showers, and other necessities in a future Q&A.
The tradition of camping out for major Nintendo releases, especially consoles, has a rich history. Now, with dedicated campers at both coastal Nintendo stores, it remains to be seen if this will spark a larger trend. Nonetheless, these creators' dedication is undeniable.
The Nintendo Switch 2 is set to launch on June 5, 2025. For those not willing to camp out, our comprehensive guides on Nintendo Switch 2 pre-orders offer valuable information, although ongoing tariffs may complicate matters for U.S. buyers.
