Nintendo Announces U.S. Price Rises for Original Switch, Warns Price Rises for Switch 2, Games, and the NSO Membership ‘May Be Necessary in the Future'
Nintendo has announced a range of price rises for various OG Switch products in the U.S., and warned price rises for the Switch 2, video games, and the Nintendo Switch Online membership may be coming down the line. The price rises, which are "based on market conditions," Nintendo said, come into effect on August 3. However, they briefly kicked in at Target, as spotted by Wario64 on X / Twitter. Assuming the new prices shown at Target are correct, they are as follows: Nintendo price rises announced August 1, 2025: Nintendo Switch: $339.99 (up from $299.99) Nintendo Switch OLED: $399.99 (up from $349.99) Nintendo Switch Lite: $229.99 (up from from $199.99) Nintendo Sound Clock: Alarmo: $110 (up from $99.99) Joy-Con 2 controllers: $100 (up from $94.99) The announcement comes a month after Nintendo signalled price rises in Canada, which were also "based on market conditions." Nintendo has yet to go into further detail. In today's announcement, Nintendo said that the newly-launched Switch 2, physical and digital Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 games, as well as a Nintendo Switch Online membership, will not be impacted by the impending price adjustment, though all models of the original Switch (the OG Switch, Switch Lite, and Switch OLED) are impacted. "Certain" Switch 2 accessories, "select" amiibo, and the Nintendo Sound Clock: Alarmo, will also see their prices go up, Nintendo continued. In a post on its website, Nintendo issued the following statement: Pricing for the original Nintendo Switch family of systems and products will change in the United States based on market conditions, effective August 3, 2025. These include Nintendo Switch – OLED Model, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch Lite and select Nintendo Switch accessories. Other Nintendo products, including certain Nintendo Switch 2 accessories, select amiibo, and the Nintendo Sound Clock: Alarmo, will also see adjustments. Pricing for the Nintendo Switch 2 system, physical and digital Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 games, as well as Nintendo Switch Online memberships, will remain unchanged at this time. However, please note that price adjustments may be necessary in the future. Pricing information for United States consumers can be found at didn't name Trump's tariffs in its statement, but analysts are pointing to them by way of explanation for these and other price rises in the video game industry. Daniel Ahmad, Director of Research & Insights at Niko Partners, tweeted to say he wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo ended up raising Switch 2 prices at some point as well. "20% tariff on Vietnam, 30% tariff on China, 15% tariff on Japan," Ahmad tweeted in response to the news. "All markets that Nintendo relies on for hardware and software production." News of the Switch price hike comes just hours after Nintendo reported its first financial results since the Switch 2 came out in June. As expected, the company saw a significant boost to sales and profits, with the Switch 2 itself selling more than 6 million units in just seven weeks. In the financial results, Nintendo said the OG Switch was still continue to hold its own despite its age and the launch of the Switch 2. The number of annual Nintendo-playing users between July 2024 and June 2025 has remained above 100 million, which means Nintendo launched Switch 2 into an environment where a huge number of people were already playing Switch.

This $30 Gamepad Is the First to Support a Critical Switch 2 Feature
GuliKit is now offering the Elves 2 wireless gamepad. It's an surprisingly high-end controller with an affordable $30 price tag, though it's most notable for its Switch 2 wake-from-sleep functionality, which other third-party gamepads currently lack. One of the most annoying parts of the original Nintendo Switch was its remote wake functionality. Not only was it somewhat unreliable (even with official Joy-Cons), but a lot of third-party controllers just couldn't wake up the console. So, if you used an unofficial controller, there's a good chance that you couldn't turn on the Nintendo Switch from the comfort of your couch. Instead, you may have been forced to stand up, walk over to the docked Switch, and press its power button like some sort of 20th century caveman. Nintendo revised its wake-from-sleep protocol for the Switch 2. It's more reliable than it was before, which is awesome. But the downside, unfortunately, is that existing third-party controllers like the GuliKit Elves 2 Pro do not support Nintendo's new protocol. GuliKit cracked the code to the Switch 2's new wake-up protocol last month. Now, the company is releasing its first gamepad with Switch 2 wake-from-sleep functionality—the $30 Elves 2. The Elves 2 is practically identical to the $50 Elves 2 Pro that launched last year. Both gamepads feature Hall-effect joysticks, a Sega Saturn-like "floating" D-pad, six-axis gyro, and the ability to wake a docked Nintendo Switch from sleep. But Elves 2 adds Switch 2 wake-from-sleep support, which is a feature that the older "Pro" controller still lacks (though this discrepancy could be resolved by a firmware update at some point). GuliKit cut some corners in order to get the Elves 2 down to its $30 price point, of course, but all of the downgrades are fairly minor. The Elves 2 uses a crappier haptic motor than the Elves 2 Pro, so it doesn't support HD Rumble. It also lacks macro recording functionality, and unlike the Pro model, its buttons can't be remapped. I should take a moment to clarify that these are not just Nintendo Switch controllers. The Elves 2 and Elves 2 Pro are standard Bluetooth controllers, so they work with PCs, smartphones, and Steam Decks, too. You'll need to use an adapter if you want to pair these controllers with an Xbox or PlayStation, however. You can buy the GuliKit Elves 2 controller today for $30. It's sold in red and black colorways. If you want some additional functionality, such as upgraded haptics, spring for the $50 GuliKit Elves 2 Pro. Just know that GuliKit hasn't announced a Switch 2 wake-from-sleep firmware update for the Elves 2 Pro. I don't know whether the Pro controller will actually gain this functionality.
