On March 3, 2017, NintenSo Switch, the current console, both portable and desktop from Nintendo, arrived on the market that has been a real revolution in the video game industry in general and in the Japanese company in particular, since the console is close to exceeding 90 million units sold worldwide, in case you haven’t already.
However, if the console has been characterized by something during all this time, it is by have not suffered any official reduction in these 4 and a half years, thus giving rise to either we had to pay the 300-330 euros or US dollars it cost (among other currencies) or we had to go for the exclusively portable version: Nintendo Switch Lite. Nevertheless, this is about to change.
Nintendo Switch will now cost 299 euros instead of 330.
Considering that Nintendo Switch OLED will arrive on October 8 at a price of € 350 it seemed obvious that with the current model costing € 330, a sale ended up arriving, thereby giving rise to reporting that many stores are lowering the price of Nintendo Switch (in its 2019 model) to € 299.
This has been verified thanks to the colleagues of Gamereactor Spain, who have been able to corroborate that the price of Nintendo Switch in Amazon Spain is the one already indicated, in the same way that other chains have been adding to this reduction, which will not be a commercial campaign, but it will be a permanent discount.
It should be noted that, as I have already indicated, the imminent arrival of Nintendo Switch OLED required a reduction in the current model, since the difference of just 20 euros in their prices made it incompatible that both were equitable options when acquiring the 2019 model over the OLED model.
This is also motivated by the differences between the original Switch model and the OLED in their technical characteristics, which makes this reduction even more necessary. However, it should be noted that the price of Nintendo Switch Lite has remained static without any type of change, so it will be necessary to see if in the next few days we will also see changes in this console.
