Nintendo is preparing for the Switch 2 era amidst rising development costs in game production. President Shuntaro Furukawa acknowledged that game development has become larger and more expensive, increasing the inherent risks of the industry. Despite these challenges, Nintendo's development teams are exploring methods to preserve their traditional game development strategies while enhancing efficiency. Early showcases of first-party games indicate an ambitious approach, though higher prices for consumers raise concerns about accessibility for younger audiences.

We are closely monitoring to what degree the price of the system might become a barrier.
