No Price Increases for Nintendo Switch 2 and Games in the USA, But Some Accessories Will Get More Expensive
Nintendo has announced that preorders for the Nintendo Switch 2 will start on April 24 in the United States. The company also confirmed that the prices of the console and games will remain the same as initially announced, despite the tariffs imposed by Donald Trump. However, some accessories will see a price increase.
As you may know, Nintendo was forced to delay the preorder dates for the Switch 2 in the United States. Initially, the preorders were supposed to start on April 9, but they were postponed to give Nintendo more time to assess the potential impact of the tariffs and market conditions. Fortunately, for now, the prices of the console and games will not go up.

As a result, the price of the Nintendo Switch 2 will stay at $449, and the bundle with Mario Kart World will cost $499. The prices for the physical and digital versions of Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza will also remain unchanged.
