It'll be $2500 by June at this ratethis will be the game that makes me buy a Switch 2.
I was talking about the Switch pricing with a friend a little while ago and it's crazy how money seems to have changed in like 5 years. I bought my Switch on ebay because I didn't want to pay full price of $300 during covid. But then 2 years ago I happily chucked over $500 for an Xbox Series X like it was nothing. Lots of things are like $100 nowadays so looking at $300 for Switch seems reasonable to me. Not that the price increase is justifiable but I'm not surprised by the increase at all.It'll be $2500 by June at this rate
I'm talking tariffs more than NIntendo's launch price. Switch factoring inflation would launch around $400 today, so $450 for the Switch 2 is fine by me. There's talk of the Switch 2 being close to $700 if the current tariffs hold.I was talking about the Switch pricing with a friend a little while ago and it's crazy how money seems to have changed in like 5 years.

It’s a no-brainer to get the Mario Kart World bundle for $50 more vs. $70 for the game separately![]()
