Retail pre-orders for Nintendo Switch 2 will begin on April 24, 2025. At launch, the price for Nintendo Switch 2 in the U.S. will remain as announced on April 2 at $449.99, and the Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundle will remain as announced…
Prices for accessories will be increasing to compensate for tariffs.
Given the tariff position, I’m curious if this will be the first time Nintendo decides to eat the loss on console hardware sales; something usually only other console makers have done.
Perhaps they think Trump will be on his way out. Or they’re eating into their cash reserves to prevent discussion of their consoles from getting political.
Given the outcry over the price, I think they have no choice but to eat the loss. They can’t drop the price, but they can’t raise it either. They’ll just have to hope that they can bring down manufacturing costs over time.

I think that you’re doing that annoying internet argument thing, because you’re not actually replying to what I said here.

I said that they can’t drop the price of the console and they can’t raise the price of the console either. What does this have to do with what I said?
