A recent report claimed that the manufacturing cost for a Switch OLED for Nintendo is just $10 higher than a base Switch, which in turn means a profit margin of $40 for every unit of the Switch OLED sold (which will retail for $349.99 as opposed to the $299.99 price of a regular Switch model). Nintendo has denied these claims. In recently published tweets, the Japanese company called these claims incorrect in order to “ensure correct understanding among [their] investors and customers.” Meanwhile, Nintendo also says that right now, it

So much was said about the vaunted, fabled Switch Pro – a mid-life update for the Switch that would modernize the tech thoroughly, and allow the platform to remain competitive on a hardware level with everything else for a few more years while Nintendo worked away on the Switch 2. There were reports, leaks, discussions on the pricing and the presumed hardware capabilities, and what that might indicate for how Nintendo approaches hardware going forward, and even discussion on third party support for this thing.  So, where did it all

An analyst by the name of Hideki Yasuda has claimed that Sony is monitoring Nintendo’s pricing for its newly-announced Switch OLED model. In a report featured in The Japan Times as reported by Nintendo Life, the analyst claims that Nintendo Switch’s OLED’s success could set a precedent within the industry, giving other manufacturers incentives to tap into pricing mid-life console upgrades at a higher price.  According to the report, producing a Switch OLED model only costs $10 more for Nintendo which should net the Kyoto-based giant a $40 profit on

Valve will charge $399 for the 64GB version, $529 for the 256GB version that uses an SSD instead of an eMMC (embedded MultiMediaCard), and $649 for the 512GB version, which also features a “premium anti-glare etched glass” and an exclusive carrying case. Gabe Newell, Valve’s president, gave an interview to IGN and explained that the company had to be very aggressive in terms of pricing Steam

[embedded content] Valve’s Steam Deck seems laser-focused at potential buyers for the Nintendo Switch — it shares a similar silhouette and offers similar features, and coincidentally is announced on the same day Switch OLED pre-orders go live — but it claims that it can run any PC game title that gamers have in their Steam libraries. So, how does that work, exactly? The handheld works on SteamOS, a custom Linux OS, and allegedly can run non-gaming software that you’d use on a PC. Originally rumored under the names of “SteamPal”
