Oh no. Not my Joy Con 2 Wheel set made officially by Nintendo. How will I ever desire to not want a Switch 2 at this point?

I'll more than likely preorder it, because if I dont get it now, I probably wont be able to until next year.

The problem is not the console price, it's actually the prices of games and/or accessories.

 

[Demon_Skeith]

It will be awhile before I can get it sadly.

I feel the Joy Con Strap costing $13.99, and other accessories overpriced. The price of the games are also more expensive which can make it harder for poorer gamers to afford.

Anyone preordering their switch 2 tonight? I can't I don't have the money but I would like to get a Switch 2 and trade in my Switch to save some money. Plus I have to get up at around 2 am for work, two hours after pre orders start lol. Honestly I was afraid that the price of the console was going to go up but I'm glad that's not the case. Sucks the joycons are that expensive though...

I'll be lacking the money for some time myself, but I heard the struggle is real in pre-ordering.

So much for Nintendo's promise to have enough.

The retailer preorders were sold out, not the actual product. Obviously they haven't gotten that in yet lol.

They made it sound like there be enough though.

I think they meant of the console in general, not just preorders.

Read from nintendolife:

Nintendo's president, Shuntaro Furukawa, has stated that price changes for the Switch 2 may occur in the future depending on how the current tariff situation shakes out.

Speaking to investors (via Yahoo News, translated by Genki), Furukawa said that the focus for now is to "quickly popularise" the Switch 2 in order to help faciliate its immediate success. However, should the situation with tariffs change, prices may also change accordingly.

"At this time, the top priority is to quickly popularize the Switch 2 hardware.

"If the assumptions regarding tariffs change significantly, we would like to consider what price adjustments we should make and implement them after considering various factors."

Hopefully Trump backs off.
