Nintendo Switch 2’s controversial award has fans shared and they are now taking their frustrations directly to the source.
Nintendo’s first wooden house: The Week Live is now live and showing some of Switch 2’s brand new games like Mario Kart WorldAt Donkey King Bananzaand Welcome tour.
Instead of expressing excitement for the launch, fans are practically asking Nintendo to “drop the price!” of the upcoming console, which is confirmed to cost $ 449.99 / £ 395.99.
With over 120,000 viewers watching, it’s hard to find only a comment that does not require a lower price tag, with some jokes that they will “spend their life savings” on the console.
While others are accusing US President Donald Trump for the recent increase in tariffs, there are also fans coming up with the high cost of Switch 2 games.
They are currently shopping for up to $ 79.99 / £ 75.99 and $ 89.99 / £ 85.99, with some arguing that a console and a single game together is simply too expensive.
Following the release of the Nintendo 3DS in 2011, the Nintendo reduced the price of the handheld price from $ 249.99 to $ 169.99 after poor launch sales. Given the disputed price of Switch 2, it would not be surprising for Nintendo to pull a similar step if it is in the same situation.
Nintendo Switch 2 was directly sent yesterday, confirming that the console will be launched on June 5, 2025, with Switch 2 Presidency scheduled to open on April 8.
