Nintendo is increasing prices for the original Nintendo Switch game consoles effective August 3, attributing the change to market conditions likely related to tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump. This price hike affects the Nintendo Switch OLED Model, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch Lite, and select accessories. While new prices have not been announced, the company might also consider future adjustments for the Nintendo Switch 2, which currently retails for $450. Nintendo has previously moved much of its production from China to Vietnam, but new tariff changes may complicate its strategy.
