I’ll buy it.

In this day and age, 50,000 is a bit concerning.

That’s impossible.

I think it’s packed with quite a lot of features, but it’s amazing.

Cheap

I thought it would cost about 70,000.

Seriously, 50,000?

I should have announced it earlier.

>>12

How will it change if you do that?

>>25

Aren’t you happy?

https://www.nintendo.com/jp/hardware/switch2/lineup/index.html

>>16

Maybe the older brother will be on Switch 2 and the younger brother on Switch 1.

>>14

If I had a brother, it would be 200,000 yen for buying two.

>>21

It feels cheap if it’s a stationary one! But when you think about a mobile device that you would keep multiple in one household, it’s quite a different story…

I guess it will be tough to buy.

It’s cheaper in the country…

Cheaper than I thought.

There are conditions for participating in the lottery to buy.

It’s because there aren’t enough items compared to the price.

There must be some effort involved, and there must also be a significant guarantee of selling well.

On the contrary, I was surprised that the software prices skyrocketed to around 7,000 to 8,000 yen, which is quite crazy, somewhere between PS4 and PS5.

It’s exclusively for Japan, so there’s no need to worry about resale overseas.

Isn’t Marika super cheap?

I wonder if they didn’t mention the price in the video because they were fine-tuning it until the last moment.

>>31

Since there are probably overseas users watching…

I don’t feel like I’m going to win the lottery for the reservation.

So cheap…

I don’t remember the duration of my ONLINE membership, but can I check it somewhere?

If you’re anonymous, you must have a chance to enter the Nintendo Store lottery!

>>38

I thought I’d buy it if it came out in 2… but I haven’t even bought 1!

Please acknowledge my playtime and purchase history for the 3DS as well!

Hardware is cheaper compared to software.

I wasn’t online, so it must be retail.

Why not learn Japanese?

Although adults find it easy, there are many launch and upgrade software, so kids’ expenses can add up quite a bit.

At best, it would be good to help Mom and keep her in a good mood!

>>44

Also, the SD Express cards are quite expensive too.

I’m glad to be an adult.

I thought it would be around 70,000.

You really worked hard, didn’t you?

It seems that a Chinese person might mistakenly buy something.

I wonder how many dollars the multilingual version sold in the U.S. will be if it sells for 70,000 yen in Japan.

The number of foreigners coming to Japan to shop is increasing more and more!

>>62

They’ll probably make it in Chinese on their own.

>>74

Well, they’ll probably analyze it quickly and make it compatible with foreign languages…

>>101

I’m not really familiar with the programming framework, but if you can physically limit the resources for multilingual support, then it might not be possible to implement it physically, to begin with?

It’s like only having Japanese up to the very edge of the cup.

Well, since I’m making some room for updates, it might be expanded.

But it doesn’t seem like there would be any profit in reselling or expanding it.

>>101

Implementing something like that will only be about 1% of all buyers.

I see.

Is it that each child in the household has one device now?

>>52

In the era of GB, it may have been fine, but in today’s world, it’s too tough.

>>57

At least my acquaintances’ households all have one to play Animal Crossing…

I got cut off during the membership period because I don’t play multiplayer games on Switch.

>>53

I thought they clearly abandoned the single-exclusive approach and adopted a sales method that might attract quite a few complaints.

>>103

I don’t care if you complain without even paying 200 yen a month…

Could it also be a measure against resale?

If you carelessly leave the domestic version unused, you won’t be able to handle it anymore.

I wasn’t subscribed to online services.

I’m not online either.

I usually only use the Dole Web and touch my Switch only once every few months.

If it’s 50,000, I can decide right away, but even if it’s cheap, I was expecting it to be at most in the 60,000 range… and then this comes up.

If there’s an opportunity to buy, I’ll really buy it right away.

Elementary and middle school students, do your best and ask for it!

I never thought the day would come when Nintendo would support 4K.

I want it because I want to do ridge.

I only played a few times, so rather than feeling cheap, it feels more like a relief.

I guess people who are really into it must feel a great sense of value.

It seems like a cumulative online subscription period of one year will be a decent cut-off.

For now, I can’t delve into reselling with a light heart.

Switch online is a family plan that doesn’t even cost 5000 yen a year.

People who can’t even afford this will probably wait for a price drop on 2, so there’s no need to worry about it.

I’ve been on for a long time, but I’ve been pretty much neglecting it. I thought I had played about 50 hours… but I’ve actually spent more than four times that just on the beastmen.

Is there a service that helps foreigners obtain Japanese credit cards?

Multilingualism really impacts the price that much, huh?

>>78

It’s just that they made it limited to Japanese due to it being resold like the PS5.

Cheap!!!!

This is within reach; there’s also a new release from From, and it’s crazy.

I’m not sure if I was a member for a whole year…

It’s been like this because it’s always been closed.

Isn’t 50,000 yen ridiculously cheap?

I thought it would be around 80,000.

You can buy something that is more powerful than the gaming PCs around here for 50,000 yen?

>>84

What are you imagining this to be?

Someone will probably come up with a way to play the domestic version in Japan overseas.

I want to believe that they are taking measures because if it comes to that, it would seriously be hell.

>>86

It will probably be broken eventually, but it might last for about the first year when it’s heated the most.

I really think they worked hard on setting this price.

Despite significantly increasing the functionality, it was quite unexpected that it didn’t even achieve +20,000.

Well, I guess the in-game voice and display can probably be switched, so it seems unlikely that people in the country would be troubled by the system being in Japanese.

Considering the performance, this is an incredible bargain.

50,000 is incredibly cheap.

I want the dollar-yen to follow the example of the 220 yen graphics card.

I had finished all the online games I wanted to play, so I canceled my online subscription…

Whoa!

I just had a one-year renewal that I had been neglecting, so I meet the conditions.

Should I buy it…?

Those who haven’t bought a Switch until Switch 2 comes out probably don’t need 2 right after its release…

I wonder if there’s any meaning for Japanese people to buy the multilingual version.

>>97

It’s not like we can play overseas Switch 2 games that don’t have a Japanese version anyway.

Well, that’s all there is to it.

>>116

It seems like only non-Japanese and Switch-only games would be bought by crappy game YouTubers.

>>97

I have a feeling that there is a possibility of not being able to buy indie games that only have an English version.

You just need to do it on Steam.

>>97

RTA runners might be troubled.

It’s impressive that they have smart measures for the lottery application conditions and multilingual support, as well as effective resale countermeasures.

I had been imagining that it would be great if the performance and price were like this, and it has really come out.

I canceled my online subscription last year because I haven’t been playing recently.

I was saved by the accumulation…

When I looked up the SD Express card, I couldn’t find anything at all, and even though it says “Express” in the product name, there are a lot of SD cards that don’t meet that standard, so I have no idea at all.

Well, considering the number of units, yeah.

Is the reception the day after tomorrow?

I haven’t cleared Tears of the Kingdom yet, so should I buy the edition version to play it…?

I was prepared for around 70,000 to 80,000.

The reservation conditions can be easily met, but it seems like there will be a flood of applications for the lottery.

Well, since I’m not in a hurry, if it means becoming fodder for resellers, I’ll just keep applying persistently even if I drop out.

It’s shockingly cheap.

When the game I want comes out, I’ll buy it.

I wonder if other countries will also release limited editions.

It’s fine if they’re just a weakling playing alone…

I wanted a thoroughly edited version because it only airs on TV, but that was an unreasonable wish after all.

>>114

I might go out once things settle down.

I’m grateful that the old Procon can also be used.

>>115

Is a new pro controller coming out?

The creators likely anticipated the bad predictions discussed on the bulletin board and have already taken countermeasures.

I haven’t bought a Switch, but I want one for FromSoftware’s new title; I guess I’ll just buy it next year…

I’m surprised on the release day.

If you’re going to do it, the boom should come from the original Japan!

A spirit like that is good…

I haven’t played games that use online on the Switch.

The accumulated time is absolutely insufficient.

I was playing the game, but I wasn’t online…

Well, I guess I’ll do my best to make a reservation at the store…

Since I’m with my mother playing with my grandchild, the conditions are met.

Shall I apply?

Just putting in effort alone won’t bring this price down…

The high prices are scary!

If I can continue to apply and buy, I would apply instead of buying from resellers.

>>127

Even if the one who won the lottery resells it, it will be linked to their Nintendo account and the ID of the unit they won.

It seems like there could be issues with reselling being exposed.

What I’m curious about is whether, like with the PS5, if you already have existing games, you can upgrade them to be compatible with the PS2 version?

The reason the PS5 was criticized was not the price, but because it has been in short supply and difficult to obtain for a long time.

In other words, if SW2 becomes scarce… you understand, right Nintendo?

I didn’t expect Japan to be given such preferential treatment.

Do you hate reselling that much?

>>132

Nintendo has consistently valued the Japanese market since long ago.

It hasn’t changed even now.

Until a little while ago, I was living with my parents, and my brother was the one using the Switch online, so I don’t have any achievements…

Since the Switch came out, the cost of microSD has decreased significantly, so I hope Express will get cheaper too.

I wonder if they are taking prison escape measures quite seriously.

A handheld device that can output 4k60fps for 50,000 yen.

Is Nintendo engaging in economic prosperity and civil welfare?

>>139

Ah, so it should be sold only to Japanese people during the lottery for the domestic version…

It’s only 10,000 different from the organic EL version.

I didn’t need to go abroad.

Japan is the best!!

It seems I can’t buy from the Nintendo store because I’m on a family plan with my friend.

I’m counting on you, Yodobashi!

If it’s a game I want, there’s a demo version available, so I’ll buy it at that point…

Also, above all, Air Ride and From’s new work.

I thought it was a slightly gentler version of Bravo aimed at kids…

That will definitely get lively when we chat together in the party!

I don’t know about the performance or anything.

Is it likely that Armored Core 2 will be released?

>>149

Elden moves, so AC6 can be released too, right?

>>149

You have plenty of time.

The data capacity felt quite tight, so I suppose I need a bit more.

It’s super cheap, but because of the high cost of living, I’m numb to it, so back then I felt it was expensive.

Cheap!

I thought it would be cheap at 60,000 yen.

You really worked hard.

But this 50,000 is probably in pretty significant red, for sure.

I was somehow saved by still being enrolled.

Our Nintendo

Whoa!

It’s coming out the month after next.

Can I check the total number of days of online membership somewhere?

I keep coming in and out, so I can’t tell how long I’ve been accumulating my membership…

It seems like I probably haven’t surpassed it since I almost never play multiplayer games.

Although there is a strong tendency to play on the TV, since it’s a hybrid hardware, portable mode is necessary.

Instead of 50,000 yen, there is a region lock.

The overseas version is 70,000 yen.

https://www.nintendo.com/jp/hardware/switch2/accessories/index.html

It has a back button.

I thought it would be 59,800 at the cheapest, so it really exceeded my expectations…

All that’s left is the reservation.

If you add it all up, it should definitely be over a year…

It is high, but it was much cheaper than I expected.

When I started introducing the cooling fan, I was thinking it might exceed 70,000.

In a typical household, you can’t take this and let the kids go to the park, right?

I bought the annual pass together with Squid, so I should have cleared it, but Squid stopped halfway.

It’s a function that has nothing to do with me.

You can do something like a variety show using a camera.

It looks really fun!

There’s nothing troubling about being region-locked.

I was wondering if it would go to 55,000 or 60,000.

I was surprised that it just barely fell below 50,000.

It’s still almost the case, but games that don’t come out on Switch are becoming meaningless…

It seems like it will take about a year to be able to buy it.

You can buy the domestic version on the official site’s reservation.

The main reason we can’t keep prices low is due to overseas reselling by Chinese resellers who can’t buy in their own country, so I think this will significantly reduce reselling.

The question now is how to deal with domestic resellers…

Even now, AC2 can run on low-cost smartphones.

Is it 50,000? Isn’t that cheap?

>>190

The region costs 50,000 yen.

No is 70,000 yen.

It seems like; it appears that.

However, the problem is that it seems likely there will be a flood of applications for the lottery in Japan, making it uncertain whether I can actually buy it…

>>191

I think Nintendo will definitely put in a considerable effort.

>>191

There is a possibility that the site may not connect.

>>191

If you keep applying, the reassurance that you’ll be able to buy it someday makes a completely different feeling.

People come from overseas → It’s a domestic version, so buying it is pointless.

An overseas person resells it to a Japanese person → It would be good to block only Japanese people for the reason of being a domestic version.

So if you make that move, you can pretty much burst the resale market.

I wonder where I can see the online achievements.

The pricing is truly something you can’t critique at all… This kind of thing is really impressive.

As expected, the Japanese version is too cheap just for Japan, and it might be a Japan-only chip.

Is there anyone who cares about region locking for games that come out on Nintendo hardware in the first place?

I wonder if there’s a way to check if the conditions are met somewhere.

It’s been a while since I let go of my Switch.

I’m not doing online (activities)…

I wonder if it would be good if I could buy it within the year… I have a feeling I won’t be able to…

The new Pro Controller is 9,980 yen, so that makes a total of 60,000 yen.

It can still be used, and since there doesn’t seem to be a connection to the C button, it’s a question of whether to spend 10,000 yen on the back button or not.

I guess I’ll wait until I can make a reservation at the electronics store…

Isn’t having a Switch Online subscription for over a year quite significant as a countermeasure against foreign resellers?

Does starting to sell before summer mean that inventory will continue to be released until summer vacation?

If you don’t buy it early, it seems like the price will go up.

I thought 50,000 yen was really expensive, but it turns out the iPhone kids are using for their parents’ power struggles is even more expensive…

Is it 450 dollars in America?

This membership condition is the one I need to enter when buying a discount ticket, right?

>>212

Yes.

It’s fine as long as it’s more than a year.

Is there no redemption for me who was holding back from buying a Switch because the Switch 2 is coming out…?

In ancient times it might have been different, but now most western games can be played on PC and region doesn’t really matter…

Even if you have an online contract, you can enjoy FE and Zelda locally.

People who like online games and retro games are probably happy.

I don’t know the cumulative time because I’m not currently on an ONLINE contract.

I wonder if I can make a reservation at the store…

Isn’t it reasonable to think of it as something like a PS4 Pro?
