Nintendo Switch 2’s Possible Price Revealed at Costco
A price leak regarding the next-generation game console Nintendo Switch 2 has come to the fore. According to a listing shared by a Costco Canada employee, the Switch 2’s price appears to be $499 Canadian. This price is $100 more than the current Switch model and $50 more than the Switch OLED model. If the leak is true, the console’s US price is expected to be around $399.
Nintendo Switch 2 Was Going to Be Affordable
A listing on Costco Canada called “Nintendo Switch Placeholder” seems to have revealed the price of the new console early. This listing, which points to $499 Canadian, reinforces expectations that the Nintendo Switch 2 will come with more advanced hardware and performance. However, there is a possibility that this price could belong to a Switch 1 bundle or a false listing.
Nintendo announced in an investor meeting last month that it would adopt a “reasonable pricing strategy” for the new Switch model. This indicates that the price of the new console will be competitive. However, if the Costco leak is true, the price of the Nintendo Switch 2 will be higher than the current models.
The date Nintendo is expected to announce official details for the Switch 2 is the Nintendo Direct event to be held on April 2. Until then, talk will continue on leaks and predictions. In addition, if the leak is true, it seems possible that the Switch 2 will be priced around $399 with its powerful features and increased performance.
How the Nintendo Switch 2 will differ from the current Switch and Switch OLED models and how this pricing policy will affect gamers will become clear with the official announcement. For now, the accuracy of the Costco leak is eagerly awaited.
