Nintendo soft-announced some slightly disappointing news particularly for foreigners living in Japan: they'll have to fork up an extra 20,000 yen, which is about $133 dollars in American money, if they want a Switch 2 console that communicates in their native tongue.
As spotted by Gabe Perez on Twitter, the official Japanese Nintendo website includes a breakdown of the two different Switch 2 consoles that'll be available in Japan when the console launches on June 5. One will be the Japanese language-only version with a ¥49,980 price tag, which is loosely equivalent to $337 with the US dollar being especially strong in Japan right now. The other console comes with "multilingual support" for 16 languages including Japanese, and that'll run you ¥69,980, roughly $473 at the time of writing.
