Still expecting 399 unless tariffs become a problem.

Main issue is main line games, can we take a step back please? 70 usd is insane

QUICK LETS MAKE A PLAN:
I expect it to be 350 or below… yes 350 or below you heard Nintendo

Consider making your games less expensive 🤷♂️

Do we expect affordability from Nintendo? Looking at their game catalog I certainly don’t.

Don’t think anyone in his position would say anything different, whether it’s true or not.
This provides exactly zero new updates on price point.

I will be genuinely surprised if its more than $399. it just feels right.

Nintendo always tries to price their consoles as low as they possibly can. That’s why it takes forever for them to cut the price later down the road.

FOUR HUNDRED AND NINETY NINE US DOLLARS

Obvious Answer.
But I guess it would be $399 (not $349, since that’s SW 1 OLED price, unless they dump the OG price down.)
and game still be like $60 – $70, unfortunately.

$69.99 for a Tears of The Kingdom experience is certainly understandable.
$69.99 for “1-2-3 switch” is another.
$69.99 for a remake of a GameCube game is another
$69.99 for Mario Tennis X is another

>Affordability customers expect’ from Nintendo
That terrifies me!
Nintendo games regularly the most expensive of all gaming platforms over their lifetime.
Costs me more to buy games on Switch than any other hardware I have owned.

$449 with a pack-in game.

I’ll get the switch 2 so long as they don’t go stupid high on the price, big question for me is when can I get my hands on one.

As always – cheap hardware with pricey games that never go down despite the years. Nespresso, PS5 etc. model

I’m interested in seeing if they end up slashing the Switch 1’s price. I think a pricier Switch 2 would be more acceptable if a cheaper alternative was also available, especially since the backwards-compatibility could potentially mean that Switch 1-compatible third-party games might still be coming out for a while.

Cool. I was thinking 450.00 could be possible, but now I think it’s definitely 399.
