Alright, let me think this through. So, Nintendo’s big boss, Shuntaro Furukawa, just dropped a nugget about the whole pricing deal for the Nintendo Switch 2—if tariffs go bonkers, the price might shake up a bit. Not exactly mind-blowing, but hey, it’s something, right?
He chatted with Yahoo! Japan, and thanks to Genki_JPN for helping with the translation. Basically, they’ve gotta make the Switch 2 catch on, like, fast. But here’s the kicker—if, outta nowhere, those pesky tariffs decide to dance a crazy dance, they’re gonna rethink the cost. They’ll toss around some ideas, weigh a bunch of stuff. You get the gist.
So, they’re gunning for 15 million units by March 2026. Can you believe it? That’s a lot of consoles! They’re revving up production—no surprise there. But, guess what? The profits are thinner this time. Hmm, interesting move, Nintendo.
And oh, mark your calendars or whatever—you know, if people still use those. The big launch date for this beauty is June 5, 2025. Prices? Well, it’s a cool £395.99 in the UK, €469.99 over in Europe, and $449.99 if you’re stateside.
Anyway, they teased this overview trailer. Sorry, I don’t have popcorn for this one. But it’s all there on YouTube if you’re itching to see what’s next for your gaming life.
Now, where was I heading with this? Ah, never mind. Just something to chew on ‘til the next update.
