Nintendo has announced that it is working on a price revision for the original Nintendo Switch console lineup and related products in Canada. As per a brief press note, the original Nintendo Switch, as well as the OLED Model and the Nintendo Switch Lite, will all be part of the price revision. The update will also apply to physical and digital Switch games, accessories, and other Nintendo products, including Amiibo and Nintendo Switch Online memberships.
The company is yet to confirm the exact date when the price revision will take effect, but has noted that the updated pricing will be available on Nintendo’s official Canadian online store starting August 1. The adjustment is being made in response to "market conditions," though Nintendo does not specify which factors, like inflation, logistics, or the newly introduced trade tariffs, might be driving the move. Crucially, Nintendo did not clarify whether it plans to decrease or increase pricing; however, the nature of the announcement and the advanced warning make an increase seem more likely.
