The Nintendo Store in San Francisco won't open its doors until May 15, but the excitement for the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 has already led to at least one dedicated fan setting up camp. YouTuber Super Cafe documented his journey to San Francisco in a video released on April 8, detailing his plan to camp out for both the store's opening and the highly anticipated release of the Nintendo Switch 2.
Having traveled over 800 miles, Super Cafe intends to hold out for nearly two months to secure his spot as the first in line on the west coast. Reflecting on his decision, he humorously remarked, "I've only lived in my apartment for two months. I like, just moved out. Terrible financial decision on my end. Whatever, who cares."
Super Cafe's dedication mirrors that of another YouTube content creator who is camping out at the New York Nintendo store for the same console. While Super Cafe plans to camp solo, he has invited others interested in joining him in San Francisco to reach out. He plans to address questions about his accommodations, food, showers, and other necessities in a future Q&A.
The tradition of camping out for major Nintendo releases, particularly new consoles, has a long history. With dedicated campers now at both coastal Nintendo stores, it remains to be seen if this will spark a trend of others joining the line. However, the commitment of these creators is undeniable.
The Nintendo Switch 2 is set to launch on June 5, 2025. For those not keen on camping out, our guides on Nintendo Switch 2 pre-orders provide valuable information, though ongoing tariffs may complicate matters for buyers in the United States.
