Why is the handheld cheaper in Japan?

In June 2025, Nintendo launched a cheaper, region-specific model in its home country. To limit international reselling, the console supports only the Japanese language and eShop. Unfortunately, the handheld is no longer such a bargain after the manufacturer announced new pricing. Meanwhile, the multi-language version is immune to the changes. Originally ¥49,980 (≈$319 USD), the Switch 2 price in Japan will be ¥59,980 (≈$383 USD) on May 25th. That’s a 20% increase, steeper than the just over 11% in the United States, where it’s set to jump from $449.99 to $499.99 on September 1st. Japanese fans
