All I know is the wholesale price and RRP in Australia, after I were to sell it in my shop I will be lucky to walk away with $6 profit on the console lol.

I don't think Nintendo would sell their hardware at a loss, so yeah, I think they make money.

It was reported by the Financial Times based on Vietnam shipping manifests. $338 was the declared value, to be precise, but that's pre-shipping.

If you compare it to the Switch, less net profit is being done here, but the increase in software pricings and the likely gradual shift to digital is likely to offset this early on at least.

Thanks.

Honestly, that sounds a bit too high, I was under impression upper estimates put it at $300, but who knows what is under that declared shipment value.

Is it? Comparable portable PCs aren't exactly cheap either, and the cost of most of their components has increased or remained stable since 2020.

Even the base Switch probably had a higher profit per unit years ago than it does now (wind-down of EOL components' production lines + increased TSMC fees even for older nodes).

Shipping costs and tariff costs are certainly a lot cheaper to sell the console in Japan. Nintendo is a Japanese company so there isn't a yen conversion cost.

Yeah - Samsung 8N is not expensive, and that is not a big SoC. The rest are off the shelf components, none of them are expensive...and they are probably going for 100 million sold, so not even remotely comparable to what PC handheld companies can (or better said can't) get in the way of discounts.
