Nintendo Switch 2 Price Unchanged Ahead of April US Pre-orders

Nintendo announced that, after a pause on pre-orders for the Switch 2 console, they will now start on April 24, 2025. This comes after President Donald Trump’s tariffs resulted in them not happening at the start of April 2025 as planned. Nintendo also confirmed there are no plans to change the Switch 2 price, so it will cost $449.99 for the system alone and $499.99 for a bundle with it and Mario Kart World. However, it also warned about “price adjustments” based on “market conditions.” In addition to confirming the Switch 2 price will be the same as initially announced in the US, Nintendo noted the cost of two major games for it will remain the same. It still intends to charge $69.99 for Donkey Kong Bananza on July 17, 2025. This is about $10 more than standard new copies of games. Meanwhile, if someone doesn’t get a Switch 2 bundle that includes Mario Kart World, that will still cost $79.99. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is $59.99, as a reminder. The items that could be more (or less) money depending on market influences like Trump tariffs are things like Switch 2 Pro Controller, Joy-Con 2 controllers, Wheel Sets, the Switch 2 Camera, and the Dock Set. The company shared an updated price list that goes over what some of those supplemental accessories will cost in the US as of April 18, 2025. Joy-Con 2 Pair - $94.99 Joy-Con 2 Charging Grip - $39.99 Joy-Con 2 Strap - $13.99 Joy-Con 2 Wheel Set - $24.99 Nintendo Switch 2 AC Adapter - $34.99 Nintendo Switch 2 All-In-One Carrying Case - $84.99 Nintendo Switch 2 Camera - $54.99 Nintendo Switch 2 Carrying Case & Screen Protector - $39.99 Nintendo Switch 2 Dock Set - $119.99 Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller - $84.99 Samsung microSD Express Card – 256GB for Nintendo Switch™ 2 - $59.99 The Nintendo Switch 2 will launch on June 5, 2025 and cost $449.99 for the standard version in the US, with the price of the bundle with Mario Kart World being $499.99.
