A different research firm, DFC Intelligence, recently downgraded its sales projections for the Switch 2 due to the negative impact of tariffs. However, DFC said the Switch 2 is still expected to be the fastest-selling console of all time with the upper limit of lifetime Switch 2 sales looking "enormous."

The Switch 2 launches on June 5, and as of today, the launch-price in the US is $450 or $500 for the bundle that includes Mario Kart World. Some expect Nintendo to raise prices for the Switch 2 due to new tariffs, while others think Nintendo will keep the price the same.

Switch 2 preorders in the US were supposed to begin today, April 9, but Nintendo delayed them to assess the tariffs. Keep checking back with GameSpot for more.
