- Analysts predict that the Nintendo Switch 2 could sell for around $400 or $500.
- One analyst says Nintendo has a first-day inventory of 6 million to 8 million, which would make it the biggest console launch ever.
- Another analyst predicts the Switch 2 will launch in June.
The Nintendo Switch is one of the best-selling consoles of all time. Many factors contribute to its success, but its affordability compared to the likes of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X can’t be overlooked. Since Nintendo found success with that $299 launch price, will the Switch 2 be just as affordable as its predecessor? Industry analysts seem to be leaning toward no.
In a report from Bloomberg, several industry analysts have weighed in on what they think the price of the Nintendo Switch 2 will be. All of whom seem to believe that the next-gen system will be more expensive than the original.
