Nintendo expects Switch 2 production to meet targets despite rising memory costs

At its 86th fiscal shareholders meeting, Nintendo explained that the ongoing increase in memory component prices will affect the cost structure of the Nintendo Switch 2, but the company remains confident that its current production plan will be fulfilled. Executives said they are maintaining long‑term talks with suppliers to secure component supplies and will continue to monitor market uncertainties. While the previous fiscal year saw little impact from component costs, Nintendo now anticipates higher expenses and has incorporated this outlook into its business planning for the coming year. To offset the pressure, the firm recently raised the retail price of the Switch 2 hardware and related products, emphasizing its aim to sustain the integrated hardware‑software business model.
