The upcoming Nintendo Switch seems to be a great piece of innovation in gaming, but surfacing leaks suggests an affordable next-gen console from the Super Mario company. Community's anticipation gets hotter as the hybrid console's price reveals within the affordable price range.
In a recent report from BGR, the Nintendo Switch's price happened to be leaked as several sources have started suggesting the price coming around $250. This was based from TechTastic site, where the information have been directly sourced from Nikkei.
The Japanese financial site mentioned about Nintendo Switch, being priced at 25,000 yen for Japan. The hybrid console is expected to be more expensive in Europe, though Nikkei have made some updates with the initial post regarding the 25,000 yen, being an estimate figure only.
As Forbes have also reported it, more sources adds to the Switch's possibility of landing a $250 price tag in North America. One leak from last year also showed the price of the Nintendo Switch, being $250, though this was clarified later as a place holder. If all these patterns fall into place, the Nintendo Switch might actually be $215 based on the current exchange rate or possibly slightly lower or higher in March.
While there isn't an exact figure for the price per se, all the leaks and sources suggests of Nintendo, not gunning for a price higher than this figure. Despite the processing muscle evident with the strong lineup of games for the Switch, going past the price range of Wii U's initial release may bleed some consequences yet again.
The console is expected to be released in March globally, but all the figures for its price is still to be taken as a grain of salt, especially the case where $250 might seem to be way to cheap for what the Nintendo Switch can do. With the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One ranging around $500 in their initial releases, analysts states that Nintendo may not pitch something higher than $300 for the Switch.
