Not sure about elsewhere but there’s a price on the UK official store: £395.99 for the system. £429.99 including digital copy of MKW.
Preorders open on 8th April.
Edit: Physical copy of Mario Kart on its own is £74.99. Woof.
Except this is not published by Nintendo or part of the NSO service.
Given how hard they’ve been pursuing anything related to Switch emulation, you’d have to be nuts to think they won’t try a lot harder to make it more difficult this time round.
Many backwards compatible games on Xbox automatically get upgrades like increased frame rate, higher resolution, and HDR. They don’t charge for these, it’s just a feature.
It remains to be seen whether Nintendo adds enough new value to justify paid upgrades, and we don’t even know how much they’ll cost, but on the face of it it’s a worse value proposition than what the competition has been offering for years.
