To add onto this, I feel like many of us are getting too influenced by the hate from a bunch of random Twitter internet trolls who keep complaining and spamming about the prices, I think the past few years in the gaming industry should go to show that all these gaming controversies we see everywhere on the internet aren't viewed as problems at all for the general consumer. It's easy to get caught up to that loud vocal minority of Twitter trolls making the Switch 2 seem like it's gonna be off to a rougher start thanks to prices, when in reality the general consumer will pay nearly anything to get the newest Mario Kart, the 3rd bestselling game in history without a single price cut in 8 years.

I mean with how much the Steam Deck is talked about and compared to Switch on the internet, you'd think Steam Deck was actually a legit competitor to Switch. When in reality the comparisons is 150M+ vs 4M, the internet really brings out a vocal minority that shouldn't be representative at all of what the general population thinks

I don't think price will have any significant impact on Switch 2's success. People were still buying the Switch Oled in droves at 350$, 100$ less than Switch 2 but inflation comes in, plus Nintendo always has the luxury to drop the price to 400$ whenever.

I agree. 499$ seemed high for the PS5, but it's neck in neck with the PS4. Switch 2 should do fine and the price shouldn't be a problem. They can further drop the price after 2 or 3 years to 349 or 399$ at least with Lite model at 299$ and OLED for 499/449$.
