An Italian retailer is already taking preorders for the Nintendo Switch 2 before any official announcements.
Pricing Revelations
The online store GamesandMovies.it, has started taking preorders for the much-awaited Nintendo Switch 2. They’ve priced it at €364.99 (about $379.77), which is lower than what many experts had predicted.
Earlier predictions estimated the Nintendo Switch 2 could cost between $399.99 and $499.99, especially if bundled with Mario Kart 9. But this lower price could make it more affordable for gamers.
Nintendo seems to have a smart strategy by avoiding direct price comparisons with the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. The lower price makes the console more appealing and sets it apart from other portable gaming devices like the Steam Deck OLED.
The Nintendo Switch 2’s success might come from its familiar design, affordable price, and great selection of exclusive games. By keeping the price lower, Nintendo could appeal to a larger group of gamers.
There’s some uncertainty around these early preorders. Customers don’t know if they’ll get refunds if the price turns out to be wrong. Things are even more confusing because of recent leaks about the Nintendo Switch 2, leading people to wonder if the retailer has insider information.
Gamers and tech fans everywhere are closely following this situation, curious to see how these early preorders play out.
