Heres the 2023 one.  Unfortunately I never posted in this one, I must have missed it. 



...to avoid getting banned for inactivity, I may have to resort to comments that are of a lower overall quality and or beneath my moral standards.

It ended up being 450 here are the final results. 

Most people thought 400 followed by 350 



I originally expected $350-400, but after learning more of the hardware I thought that $350 may be too low, and the price range would be more like $400-450, especially after the reveal trailer. Of course by that time I couldn't change it in the poll anymore...

I'm glad they're using a decently fast standard for external memory with SD Express, but I was actually hoping for CFExpress, as those are more widespread. However, they're also much larger (type B, which are the most common CFExpress cards, are larger and thicker than SD cards, and really huge compared to a MicroSD card), so since the Switch 2 isn't any thicker than the OG Switch, I can understand why they didn't go that route. I just hope that until then, SD Express cards are getting a bit more common and cheaper...



The USA price of $450 is more than I was expecting but the UK price was pretty much what I thought it would be.



549 dollars.

Some rumours appoint that the switch 2 will have 2 models, one will be digital only and will cost U$ 399.99 and a other version that will run cartridges for U$ 449.99.

A digital only version is a good way to get below the 400 USD mark.

I think that all those poll positions with half of them below 400 USD aren't paying attention to 2024 currency values.

The poll has 250 USD as the lowest. But 250 USD in 2024 isn't the same as 2006 or 2017. In 2006, that's 160 USD, in 2017 is 195 USD. The Switch cost 300 USD in 2017 (or 105 dollars more), and the Wii cost 250 in 2006 (or 90 dollars more).

That's me from 2024

Consoles aren't getting cheaper to produce . PS4 and Switch are still $300 after 7 or 8 years so I'm sure Switch 2 will be at least $400. Wouldn't surprise me if it's $500

That's pretty much my thought, at least 400 and up to 500, probably 450-480. If it's outside of the 4-500 range, colour me surprised.

Also me from 2024.
