Update: Nintendo Switch OLED pre-orders are live! Let's goooo. Original article continues below, plus listings. Also, for UK folks, Nintendo UK and GAME are registering interest.

The Nintendo Switch OLED isn’t up for pre-order yet, but that hasn’t stopped retailers from listing it in advance for eager buyers. In case you missed it, Nintendo’s latest console comes with a 7-inch OLED screen for an easy-on-the-eyes gameplay experience. The upgrade also boasts amped-up audio, larger 64GB internal storage, and an added physical LAN port.

The Nintendo Switch OLED comes in two colors schemes: white or neon red/neon blue. Its white version features a shimmery white, nearly silver dock and Joy-Cons to match. On the other hand, the red/blue model looks almost like the average Nintendo Switch. It comes with a black stand and a pair of red and blue Joy-Cons like its predecessor.

Here’s the round-up of current listings for both the white and red/blue models. They might not be available for pre-order now, but they will be later.

You can keep track on your own, too. For example, Best Buy also offers pre-order email notifications. That way, when pre-orders go live, customers can add the Nintendo Switch OLED to their cart without needing to check any other website. Best Buy also listed what appears to be a Nintendo Switch screen protector and carrying case for the OLED model.

It's unclear exactly when the pre-orders will go live. Probably be in the next few weeks, considering the Nintendo Switch OLED launches on October 8, 2021.
