Nintendo is raising the price on a multitude of Switch consoles and accessories, with some products like the Switch OLED seeing a +$50 increase.

On the heels of $80 games and a new $550 console, Nintendo fans will have to adjust to even more sticker shock. The company is raising prices on at least 17 different products ranging from the entire Switch 1 console lineup as well as Joy-Cons, Pro controllers, Amiibo, and even the Switch Online retro controllers. Nintendo is clearly serious about clawing back some of the tens of billions of yen in profit that will be eaten up by global tariffs instigated by the Trump Administration.

The new price hikes are principally centered around the first generation Switch, but the Switch 2 doesn't go unscathed--Joy-Con2's saw a price jump. The largest price increase by dollar amount was the Switch OLED, which was increased by $50 from the original $349.99 price to the new $399.99 baseline. For reference, that's how much a launch PS4 retailed for in 2013.

Interestingly enough, the largest increase by % was seen with Nintendo's amiibo figurines, which saw a $4 increase from $15.99 to $19.99.

Perhaps the most surprising price jump was the Switch Online controllers. The controllers already require users to be subscribed to Switch Online in order to purchase, and Nintendo hiked these products from 8% to 17%, with the NES controller up +17% or by +$10, and now priced at $69.99.

Nintendo has warned consumers that the Switch 2 could also get a price hike.
