However, we still only know minimal information about the successor to the successful equipment. For example, there is no price or fixed release date. We’ll likely find out at the planned Nintendo Direct presentation in April. Meanwhile, analysts are already trying to guess how much the Japanese company will cost for its new console.

Most analysts contacted by IGN agree that the most likely price for the Switch 2 will be US$400 (converted to CZK 9,800). For comparison, the original Switch cost $300, and the current OLED switch costs $350.

Dr. Serkan Toto of Kantan Games stated that $400 is “a price that can ensure the success of the console.” He also added that based on the trailer released so far, he doesn’t see enough news to justify the $450 price tag. Other analysts, including Piers Harding-Rolls and Circano’s Mata Piscatella, share a similar view.

However, some experts do not rule out that the Nintendo Switch 2 will be more expensive. MIDiA’s Rhys Elliott notes that if the console faces supply constraints, its price could rise to $450 or even $500. “Nintendo could justify the higher price by saying that the new console will mostly be purchased by early adopters who are willing to pay more,” Elliot says.

Elliott also recalled that Sony and Microsoft were able to price their PS5 and Xbox Series X consoles above $500 when they first went on sale. Perhaps now they will regret it.

Mat Piscatella noted that the pricing strategy when launching a new console does not necessarily affect its success in the first stage of its life cycle. “Early buyers are not so price sensitive and will buy the console regardless of the amount. And prices can always go down later.” he explained.

However, Nintendo’s history shows that Price changes don’t happen very often during the life cycle of this company’s consoles.. Throughout the Switch era, prices for all three models—the original Switch ($300), the OLED version ($350), and the Switch Lite ($200)—have remained the same. This suggests that the price of the Switch 2 may remain the same for the rest of its life cycle. In Czech stores, the Switch sells for over 7,000 CZK. Lite from CZK 4,290 and OLED from CZK 8,290.
