- Industry analysts have reacted to Nintendo Switch 2 pre -order delay decision
- Some rates predict the price of Nintendo Switch 2 in the United States predict
- Others believe that Nintendo will try to stick to what is announced by $ 429.99 / 5 395.99
Now we know that the Nintendo Switch 2 will not start according to the plan on April 9, the company cited “potential impact and market conditions” in a statement provided to Tech Radar Gaming.
This unprecedented move for the Nintendo game is after a harsh week, with the announcement of 9 429.99 / 5 395.99 for the Nintendo Switch 2, many are still paired with a slate of launching games, which costs about 79.99 / £ 74.99 about each of them.
The Entertainment Software Association (ESA), the US Video Game Industry Trade Association, and several industry analysts have already predicted that the introduction of these cleansing taxes can affect hardware and software prices, but Nintendo’s response is currently in the air.
“It is very difficult to predict, but Nintendo will potentially take a few days to run and then announce the increase in (the price),” the video game consultancy firm Canton Games CEO Dr. Sarkin Toto explained. To talk to IGN.
He added, “I hope I am wrong, but if more prices are maintained than those sky, they will not give up their choice.” He added that if the base model of Nintendo Switch 2 targeted the $ 500 mark and questioned why Nintendo chose to announce the price in view of such uncertainty in the market.
In the market research firm Sarana, Sports Executive Director Matt Pustekla provided a potential explanation for this. He argued that “the breadth and depth of prices surprised everyone, not just consumers”
“When the video games are talked about, some areas and the region globally have historically been subject to more prices than other parts of the world,” he said. “The United States can definitely join the group because of these rates.”
However, not everyone shares the same theory that increases the price on the cards. Games industry researcher Joist Wan Daronon believed that the price of Nintendo Switch 2 was already in mind, keeping in mind the volatility prices.
“Historically, Nintendo has created the purpose of launching around $ 400, adjusting for inflation, which suggests that the current price already reflects the expectation of potential economic challenges.”
Although he acknowledged that the situation is “unexpected”, he is expected to “try to keep the price of Nintendo 9 449.99” unless it is impossible to do so.
In the market research firm Empire analysis, the head of the Games Research, Pierre Harding Rules echoed the emotions, which highlighted the risk of consumer response despite the rise in prices.
He explained, “I have already suggested that pricing will continue as soon as 2026, but if the revenue remains in place, it can be adjusted.” “This delay in pre -orders is to give the company more time and hope that there will be a solution in the next few weeks.”
“If pricing is changed, it will affect the theory of the brand and the American consumer’s product at the time of launch. I do not think it will be loyal fans, but it can prevent wider users who will eliminate the ‘wait and see’ view. This is especially important in its first holiday season.”
Should you put a tamma for $ 500+ Nintendo Switch 2?
Personally, I am surprised that Nintendo committed a retail price in the United States early.
In the construction of the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct, I was convinced that there would be no mention of the price on the US version of the stream, which would provide more information very closely to the release date.
Although there was no mention of the price on the river itself, it was confirmed on Nintendo’s website – which shows that I am being tweeted and adjusted by the last minute.
We know that Nintendo has already shifted its manufacturing China from China to Vietnam and Cambodia in an attempt to avoid revenue, though both regions will apparently have 46 % and 49 % of the revenue, respectively.
This latter figure is the highest in all countries, which is undoubtedly a nightmare for Nintendo. I am sure that the US recommended retail price was facing some extent, possibly 10-15 % such as many economists were forecasting, so I do not see how it would be possible to maintain the price.
The decision to delay pre -orders indicates that Nintendo Nintendo Switch 2 is taking the cost 2 to the drawing board. Although the company is likely to expect a resolution before the launch of June 5, if the rates are kept in its place, I would not be surprised if the Nintendo Switch 2 shelf removes between $ 500-600.
