Switch 2, the long-awaited new console from Nintendo, launches June 5 with 'Mario Kart World' and 'Cyberpunk 2077'

Those not lucky enough to snag a preorder may be waiting in long lines this week if they want to play Mario Kart World.

Tonight is the official launch of the Nintendo Switch 2, a console people have been waiting for years to arrive. Some publications and influencers received theirs one day early, but for the rest of the world, tonight is the first opportunity to play it. And for a lot of the people in this line, that means they’re willing to wait a little longer.
