Nintendo vows robust software lineup to soften Switch 2 price hike
Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa apologized for the Switch 2 price increase, which will raise prices worldwide (US +$50; changes start in September, earlier in Japan), and pledged a robust software lineup to boost ownership value. He cited rising costs and supply-chain improvements, noting first-year Switch 2 sales were strong and demand remains firm in year two.
