Analyst Comments on Nintendo Switch 2 Launch Price
I would be surprised if it was not $400 or more.
And actually, I think it's worth it.
Yes, of course, backward compatibility.
But that isn't all of it.
If you're comparing this to the ROG Ally for example, you're talking a similar set up here. Better controls, higher cost on those for sure, and higher memory bandwidth (closer to ROG Ally X) with a gpu which will almost certainly out perform the Z1 Extreme in mobile mode, considerably so with DLSS active.
They made some good choices here. I have to give them props. If this were not delayed, and all signs point to that it was, just yikes.
A 2024 release alongside the Ally rather than the Z2 Extreme would have been crazy.
I don't want to pay $500 but I don't think that's a bad price for what we have here.
Here's hoping Nintendo surprises me. If it's $400 I'll be happy. I'm excited. For the first time in a while.
