Nintendo's president, Shuntaro Furukawa, has refused to comment on the possibility of a Switch 2 price increase but promises that the company is developing games in series that fans are waiting for.
Barring the highly unlikely case that a game gets announced and released before June, the Nintendo Switch 2 is the first home console from the company to not feature a main series Super Mario (Mario Bros. in the Famicom's case) or The Legend of Zelda game within the first year of its launch. Sure, Donkey Kong Bananza filled the role of a 3D Mario game – and surpassed them, in my eyes – but it's still an unusual move from Nintendo.
