I think they were always priced around 279-329€.

This is aggressive but it makes sense. Nintendo will be forced to stop selling Switch 1 from 1st February 2027. I thought that they would simply transfer stock to other regions, but it highly likely this is not economically feasible since EU products have unique EU packaging. They would have had to repackage it to sell it elsewhere, and possibly also have to reflash the operating system if it is in any way modified for EU markets. So, what they seem to have chosen is to price it aggressively to get rid of all their stock, rather than simply wait and decide later how to get 'rid' of it.

Nice. If I were in Europe I'd pick one up as a back up.
Looking forward to seeing holiday 2026 numbers!

The base console without MK8DX is €299.99, from what I’ve found.

Nintendo should be making some obscure new variant like the "new 2DS XL" or so to goad Sony

Dont forget the moon warehouse Sony has

In a world where consoles are getting more and more expensive, a Switch plus Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for 200 Euros is a great deal, you effectively get one of the best gaming systems of all time with a huge library, plus the best kart/party racing game ever made, at well below normal price.

One last hurrah for the ol' Switch 1 before it bows out of the EU.

tomodachi life bundle is cute.

This deal should move a decent number of units. The gap between shipped and sold in Europe at the end of the year is likely going to be tiny with sales quickly dropping in 2027 as Nintendo will no longer able to ship new units starting in February 2027.

I hope Nintendo is able to ship a decent amount of Switch consoles as I have a feeling this is going to be rather popular at such a low price. 

Able or eager? That's the question.

The 2m forecast imo doesn't predispose us for that.

But we all wish what you pointed out, supplying stores with a great amount of units before the farewell.

I hope they will increase their fiscal year target in the upcoming report, that would be extraordinary.
