Pre-ordering a Switch 2 was a horrible, terrible experience<\/a><\/span>. And on top of all the bullshit involved in just securing one in the first place, if you were able to snag one through Target<\/a><\/span>, you might not have gotten your Switch until a few days after it launched on June 5. To make up for these late deliveries, Target is now offering some gift cards. <\/p>\n

Nintendo Switch 2 Could Launch With Almost No Reviews<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

When Switch 2 pre-orders went live in April, people digitally scrambled to Walmart, Target, and Best Buy to secure their new Nintendo console. And it was a giant shitshow. And then, as we got closer to the launch earlier this month, people started getting their orders canceled.<\/a><\/span> Others discovered that their Switch 2 wouldn\u2019t arrive from Target on June 5, but instead might show up days later<\/a><\/span>. Luckily, not every Switch 2 from Target was delayed by multiple days. But if your console was, you can likely grab a free $50 eShop gift card from the retail giant. <\/p>\n

As shared by deals guru Wario64 on social media<\/a><\/span>, Target has started sending out email messages to customers who pre-ordered a Switch 2 console but received it later than expected.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe know you were hoping to receive your [Switch 2] sooner,\u201d wrote Target. \u201cUnfortunately, we didn\u2019t make that happen. This isn\u2019t the experience we intended, and we\u2019re sincerely sorry. As a thank you for your patience and understanding, we\u2019re including a complimentary code for one $50 Nintendo eShop Gift Card.\u201d<\/p>\n

To redeem the gift card, you\u2019ll need to add a $50 eShop card to your Target cart and check out while logged into the Target Circle account<\/a><\/span> that you used when ordering the Switch 2. If done correctly, assuming your Switch 2 was late, the $50 card will be discounted to $0. <\/p>\n

There is a catch, because of course there is. There\u2019s always a catch. In this case, Target seems to only be offering the $50 eShop card to people who pre-ordered a Switch 2 and received it on or after June 7<\/a><\/span>. However, some people have contacted support and claim to have still been able to get a $15 Target gift card if the console was only a day late. <\/p>\n

Either way, if Target screwed you over while trying to buy a Switch 2, you owe it to yourself and your wallet to log into your account and see if you can get a free gift card for your trouble. <\/p>\n
