Nintendo Switch 2 Breaks Sales Records Despite High Prices

TL;DR Summary
Despite high prices, Nintendo's Switch 2 sold 3.5 million units in its first four days, making it the company's fastest-selling console. Former Nintendo marketing leads suggest the company's strategy of not engaging with backlash and waiting out customer dissatisfaction may teach consumers that they can continue to push prices higher, potentially leading to long-term issues. They warn that this approach could result in negative consequences for Nintendo's relationship with its most passionate fans and overall brand reputation.
