Nintendo ramps up Switch 2 production despite worldwide price hike
Nintendo is reportedly increasing production of the Nintendo Switch 2 to 20 million units by March 2027, despite projecting lower console sales for the upcoming fiscal year. This comes as the company announced a price increase for the console in Japan, the US, Canada, and Europe, effective September 1, 2026. The increased production suggests Nintendo is confident in exceeding its public sales outlook, potentially bolstered by a strong software lineup and rumors of a The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake.
