Nintendo Switch price revealed ahead of March 2017 launch

4.5
According to LetsPlayVideoGames, UK retailer GAME’s prices for Nintendo Switch basic and premium models have been confirmed by two reputable sources.

The basic model will be priced at £199.99, while a premium model with greater internal storage and a game will set you back £249.99. The title included with the latter isn’t confirmed at this time.

Their sources also shared the price of the Switch Pro Controllers, which will retail at £39.99.

While these are prices for one specific UK retailer, apparently “Nintendo is planning for the Switch to be close to direct conversion price comparable across regions, which we have been told is tied into their push for the system to be region free.”

So for U.S. prices we’d be looking at around $250 and $300 for the two options.

I’d say those prices are pretty reasonable. And if The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild isn’t the packed in title, I’ll be more than a little surprised.

Are you willing to fork out for one of the console options? Let us know your thoughts below.

its so worth it since its a proper console for once and has tradition analogs where its top and bottom not both top(like wiiu) so im happy what they did plus the 3rd party support which was lacking alot since wii now they may comeback to the top of the gaming charts with this

FourStar Well...I was kinda expecting it to be cheaper than an Xbox One/PS4.


It is. A base model PS4 & Xbox One at launch were way above the $250 price tag for the base model switch.

Not worth it at all for me.

In my opinion that's a pretty decent price for what you get, doubt I'll be buying it though.
