Nintendo has already sold 5.7 million Switch 2s since the console went on sale on June 6th, and Nintendo expects to sell 15 million units by the end of its fiscal year.

The price hike will make other first-gen Switch models more expensive, too, with the Switch OLED going from $349.99 to $399.99, and the Switch Lite increasing from $199.99 to $229.99. Nintendo also issued $10 price increases for the Alarmo and Switch 1 Joy-Cons, which are now priced at $109.99 and $89.99, respectively.

As of Aug. 3, you'll pay up to $50 more for a Switch 1 console and some Switch 2 accessories. Nintendo cites 'market conditions,' which could mean tariffs. Or it's trying to bolster Switch 2 sales.
