The retail price of the console will be $ 449, and if you plan to buy the Mario Kart Bundle along with the gaming console the the price will be $ 499.99. It is expensive compared with the previous generation's original switch. With this price comes a 10x better graphic performance, and the brand is planning to bring more games to its Switch console this year, like Elden Ring.

We are also expecting more games from Play Station and XBOX very soon to Nintendo as the device is capable of handling high graphic games. Fans are already excited to have the device in their hands, and recently, Nintendo started an experience event in New York. Many people gathered for the event and experienced the new Nintendo game console.

Nintendo Switch 2 is now on eBay

Now, Nintendo is short on supply as the pre-orders exceeded their numbers. So many pre-order buyers are taking this as an advantage and are now selling them on eBay at a higher price than the actual launch price from Nintendo. Many are selling Nintendo Switch 2 for $ 650. With the Mario Kart bundle, the price is even higher. 

This is now becoming a business, as many pre-order buyers are selling the same device at a higher price. Retailers like Argos and Smyths have posted, saying, “Sorry, this item is just too popular! But we may get more stock, so do check back at a later date.”

To prevent customers from buying the device at a higher price on eBay and other black markets. Nintendo has to bring back their pre-orders so that players don't get scammed as the fans were more curious to buy the next-generation gaming device.
