What We Still Don’t Know

Several key details about the Nintendo Switch 2 remain undisclosed, especially regarding its pricing. Nintendo has yet to provide substantial information, only indicating that various factors such as inflation and exchange rates are being considered for setting the console’s price. Recent discussions, as highlighted by Nintendo Life, suggest that based on leaked images from Costco Canada’s product listings, the anticipated price for the console could be around 499 Canadian dollars, translating to roughly 350 US dollars. While this pricing seems attractive, regional variations may affect the final cost.

Upcoming Launch and Events

The Nintendo Switch 2 is projected for a global launch later this year, and players can look forward to the next reveal in the upcoming Nintendo Direct on April 2nd. As anticipation builds, fans are eagerly awaiting details that could redefine the gaming landscape.
