尽管任天堂 Switch 2 涨价，美国消费者实际上在该主机上并没有花更多钱
Despite Switch 2 price hikes, US consumers actually aren't spending any more on the console now
任天堂 Switch 2 在 2026 年 9 月均价仅从 486 美元微升至 498 美元，涨价后美国消费者支出增幅仅 2%。同期 PS5 均价涨 17% 至 646 美元，Xbox 涨 33% 至 663 美元；Circana 的 Mat Piscatella 指出任天堂取消 Mario Kart World 捆绑包改售单机，使平均价格保持平稳。
Despite a price increase, customer spending on the Nintendo Switch 2 has increased by only 2% compared to last year.
During September 2026, average console spending was naturally higher across the board due to price increases driven by ongoing global RAM shortages (thanks to AI slop farms!). Xbox prices went up by £130 for the 512GB Series S and £170 for 1TB models of the Series X|S; Sony increased prices by $100 for the PS5 and $150 for the PS5 Pro; and the Switch 2 got a $50 price bump.
Per Circana's Mat Piscatella on Bluesky, the average price paid for a PS5 was up 17% from $551 to $646; Xbox was up even more significantly, by 33%, from $497 to $663, while Nintendo was up… 2%? Yes, despite the price increase, Nintendo spending only increased from $486 to $498.

So how does that happen? Piscatella explains that Nintendo "transitioned away from the Mario Kart World bundle" to a standalone Switch 2 console this year. So "while the buyer gets less value in the box than they used to," the average price paid has managed to remain pretty firm. He adds, "Pretty smart cookies over there at Nintendo."
Nintendo Switch 2 is going into its second holiday season this year, and with the upcoming The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake introducing a new Zelda 40th anniversary Switch 2 console that is $20 more expensive than the base console, which means that percentage will probably increase next month… if anyone can get one that is.
