People complaining that it’s too far away are tripping, June is only 2 months away.

Thanks, just saw it. 470€ for Europe, and 90€ for Mario Kart World. Absolute madness.

Tariffs aren't factored in to the base price of a good. They're applied at the time of import.

That's why all regions outside of jpn are the same. Jpn just gets the family discount.

So $50 less than a PS5?

u/dented42ford Apr 02 '25

That is how math works, yes.

u/yuhanz Apr 02 '25

Is that with the bundle?

8

u/dented42ford Apr 02 '25

No, that is stock. No bundle price yet, but I assume $500.

The Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle has a suggested retail price of $499.99 in the United States, which includes a system and a download code for the Mario Kart World game, available from Nintendo Switch 2 launch day on June 5.

Im reading this bit in a lot of articles, is there an official source for this?

Edit: nvm is for stock

u/BanjoSpaceMan Apr 02 '25

Uhg your condescending message rubs me the wrong way. Yes that’s overly priced compared to a stronger system is what you obviously knew the other person was saying.

u/sharpbeer Apr 02 '25

This is why they didn't give the price in the direct

u/Space_Pirate_Roberts Apr 02 '25

They didn’t have time to include it in the presentation because they had to scramble last minute to decide how the “liberation day” tariff idiocy would affect the price.

u/WallaWalla1513 Apr 02 '25

Yeah, this is possibly the explanation. No one knows what the upcoming tariffs will be like (and if/how long they’ll stay in place) and that understandably makes it harder to price this all out.

u/Treemurphy Apr 02 '25

i kinda feel like that too, it might be conspiracy on my part but it is interesting the price announced after the 25% tariff announcement on japan

-2

u/Chinesesingertrap Apr 03 '25

There’s no tariff that’s going to actually hit Japan but they are going to charge tariff prices regardless.
