Nintendo has opted to keep the price of the Nintendo Switch 2 the same as it was when announced, $449.99 for the console by itself and $499.99 with a bundled digital copy of Mario Kart World. Pricing for physical and digital games published by Nintendo will also remain the same — $80 for Mario Kart World and $70 for Donkey Kong Bananza.
Not everything has remained at the same price, however, as the company has revealed that all previously revealed accessories – such as the Pro Controller, Joy-Con 2 sets, the Switch 2 camera, and additional dock sets – have received a price increase. Price increases on these accessories are mostly around $5, with additional dock sets rising by $10, up to a new price of $120.
