Now Playing: Nintendo Switch 2 Console Review
In May, Nintendo of America president Doug Bowser believed Switch 2 supply would meet demand in the US. This was obviously weeks before the console launched but echoed Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa's thoughts that price point would be a bigger factor in early hardware sales. For comparison, Microsoft and Sony struggled with Xbox Series X and PS5 supply for almost a year after launch. However, those systems also came out in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic.
But then, Switch 2 became the fastest-selling home console ever, moving 3.5 million units in four days. The system helped shatter a US hardware June sales record that stood for almost two decades, too.
Meanwhile, the original Switch family of systems will be seeing price increases in the US in a matter of days. Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch Online memberships won't be affected at this time, but that could change in the future. Certain Switch 2 accessories will cost more, though.
