Nintendo has no plans for a Nintendo Switch price hike "at this point"
[ad_1]
Despite widespread issues regarding part shortages, Nintendo has recently confirmed that it has plans to increase the price of the Nintendo Switch.
Earlier this month, Nintendo did report that Switch sales had fallen by 23% due to the semiconductor components shortage, but company president Shuntaro Furukawa has confirmed to Nikkei that the company wants to “avoid pricing people out,” (thanks NME).
“We’re not considering [a price increase] at this point, for two reasons,” said Furukawa. “Nintendo has sold more than 100 million Switch units so far, and it’s important to maintain the momentum of our overall business. Generally speaking, a weak yen makes domestic Switch sales less profitable.”
