Nintendo Rules Out More Switch 2 Price Hikes

Nintendo has said it isn't planning any more price increases for the Switch 2. The company made the comment as it released its results for the first half of fiscal year 2027.

The reassurance rests on supply. Nintendo says it now has access to enough memory to manufacture more Switch 2 consoles. Memory costs have been a widely reported pressure across the hardware industry, and they are a common reason consoles get repriced, so a secure supply gives the company more room to keep building units without leaning on another price change.

The statement is a signal to buyers who have been waiting for the console's price to settle. The summary of the announcement doesn't include new prices or a timeline, so it is best read as a statement of current plans rather than a firm guarantee. Even so, a clear message that no further increases are coming is a notable shift after earlier price moves on the console.
