Nintendo has announced a price revision for the Nintendo Switch 2 system in Canada, with the suggested retail price set to increase from CAD 629.99 to CAD 679.99 beginning September 1, 2026.

According to Nintendo, the price adjustment is due to various changes in market conditions that are expected to continue over the medium to long term. In layman’s term, the prices are increasing because of the memory shortage. (Damn you, AI!)

The company also confirmed that pricing for the current Nintendo Switch system will remain unchanged. Nintendo has acknowledged that price changes can be difficult for customers.
