It is no secret that Nintendo will be replacing the Switch, Switch Lite and Switch OLED with a second-generation model before the end of March. While Nintendo has not elaborated further yet, there have been rumours that a January announcement will occur before a full release sometime in April. Given those timescales, it should come as no surprise that retailers have started receiving information about what is on the horizon.
To that end, GameStop has added microSD Express cards with SSD-like transfer speeds for Nintendo's next console. Now, an alleged employee or representative of French retailer Micromania has chimed in with fresh details about the so-called Switch 2. Reportedly, Micromania has already prepared everything internally, with prices set at between €69 and €79 for upwards of 25 launch titles.
If these prices are accurate, then Switch 2 games would cost about €10 more than current titles. Moreover, the retailer's internal database is said to have been updated with references to a new Mario Kart and even Super Mario Galaxy 3 rather than a new Super Mario Odyssey (curr. $47.89 on Amazon). A similar price rise may be in order for the console itself, which is slated to launch for €399 in the Eurozone. Please note that these are just rumours for now and should be treated with a healthy amount of scepticism until concrete evidence turns up.
