Upcoming remake for Nintendo Switch 2
Best Buy's 60th Anniversary Sale cuts $75 off the Nintendo Switch 2 and offers up to $130 in trade-in credit for old Switch consoles, stacking savings to $205 before a September 1 price increase raises the standalone console to $499.99. The deal applies to both the standalone unit and the Choose Your Own Adventure Bundle.
The Nintendo Switch 2 Camera, originally priced at $54.99, is now available for $9.99 at GameStop, marking an 80% discount. This significant price drop makes the camera more accessible for features like facial movement tracking in GameChat avatars, recently showcased in the Star Fox remake. Players can now consider the camera for enhanced Switch 2 experiences without the hefty price tag.
The Nintendo Switch 2 gaming console is available for as low as $399.99 for Prime Day, a significant discount from its upcoming $499.99 price tag starting September 1. This deal, coupled with a discounted 256GB memory card, makes now an ideal time to upgrade, especially with powerful Triple-A ports like Cyberpunk 2077 and Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade on the horizon.
Nintendo is ramping up production of the Switch 2, aiming for 20 million consoles by March 2027, despite announcing a significant price rise in key markets. The console's first-year sales of 19.86 million units have already exceeded expectations. This move comes ahead of a planned price hike in the US, Canada, Japan, and Europe, set to take effect in September 2026.
Preorders for the Star Fox Remake on Switch 2 are now available at My Nintendo Store UK, offering exclusive bonuses for both digital and physical orders. The game, a second remake of the 1997 classic Star Fox 64, promises improved level design, an enhanced story, modernised gameplay, and new character designs. Set to launch on June 25, 2026, fans can secure their copy starting from £41.99 for the digital version.
