Two weeks after Nintendo delayed Switch 2 preorders in the U.S. due to new tariffs instituted by President Donald Trump, the company confirmed the price and when gamers in the U.S. can preorder the next Switch. There are, however, some items that will go up in price. 

The Switch 2 will continue to start at $450, Nintendo posted on Friday on its site. U.S. gamers will also be able to preorder their Switch 2 starting on April 24. 

Game pricing will remain the same, with Mario Kart World still at the $80 price point while Donkey Kong Bananza, releasing on July 17, will be priced at $70. What will change is the price of accessories, with some increasing by $5.
