Select EB Games Canada Stores in Ontario Holding Nintendo Switch 2 Midnight Launch Event
- EB Games Canada is holding a Nintendo Switch 2 midnight launch event at Westfield Innaloo and Carousel in Western Australia on May 31, 2025.
- This event follows a long ban on midnight launches in Western Australia due to trading laws that previously made such events illegal.
- The launch will start at 9 pm with purchasing allowed but customers cannot take products home until midnight, marking a rare midnight launch for the region.
- The two Westfield stores will open at 9 pm, and an official EB Games announcement is expected later on May 31, 2025.
- This event may signal a change in local retail practices and customer experience, as midnight launches have been absent for over 25 years in the area.
