The price of the Switch 2 revealed by an Italian reseller?
The Switch 2 comes with several launch games including a new one Mario Kart but one question remains: what price for the beast? Especially since we are talking about an improvement in the technical sheet, a more massive format or even a magnetic Joy-Con with an optical sensor to use them like a mouse. The rear support also adopts a shape of “U” for better stability. Nintendo has also added two USB-C ports on the top and bottom.

Coming back to the Italian reseller, it is GamesandMovies.it, a very well-known brand in the country. The company sent an email to its customers to inform them of the opening of pre-orders for the Switch 2 at a price of 364.99 euros. That is below the price mentioned by a Micromania employee of 399.99 euros. As a reminder, the current Switch is sold for 299.99 euros at Nintendo. The price increase is not surprising.
However, you must be very careful with this information and take tweezers. For what ? Because this reseller has somewhat aggressive business practices. For example, the game Ghost of Yotei has been put up for pre-order although its release date is not official. Same for Resident Evil 9 or even GTA 6 which, in fact, continues to talk about a price of up to 100 dollars.
Better to take all this information with caution until Nintendo has made anything official. The manufacturer gives us an appointment April 2, 2025 during a Live to give more details on its Switch 2 which can even be tested during an event at the Grand Palais with registrations already open.
