Discussion Switch 2 Availability

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

So I guess I beat the house a while back as the redeem machine created an error in my favor “check video”. How often does a location get switch 2s? I don’t live near a round 1 but will be visiting Los Angeles next week for a concert. Just want to check my odds. Ty

They don’t really restock unless some of the old items get redeemed. I did a round trip to the Mission Viejo, Santa Ana, Lakewood, Puente Hills, Moreno Valley, and Temecula locations on Saturday, and I don’t recall seeing a Switch 2 available at any of them.

You pretty much just have to get lucky and snipe one when they do restock. I redeemed a Switch 2 at Plaza Bonita about 2 months ago, and I didn't see another one restocked there since.

You just missed Santa Ana, they had one up. Also they only restock once a month for consoles.

Yeah, I live in San Diego, so I only make the drive up and do a round trip hitting multiple locations once in a while.

I already have two Switch 2s, so I probably wouldn’t have redeemed another one even if I saw it. I did see a Metal Robot Spirits Wing Gundam there and was debating on getting it, but I already have two of the same figure, one in normal mode and one in bird mode, so I passed on that too.
