Two retail SKUs at launch — pick the listing that matches your hardware. We only mirror MSRP and upgrade paths confirmed in Marvelous PR; we do not list Switch 2-exclusive gameplay content unless an official post names it.
| Edition | Americas MSRP | Hardware | Store listing | Source note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nintendo Switch | $34.99 | Switch, Switch Lite, or docked Switch | Standard Nintendo Switch edition | Marvelous USA PR · June 6, 2026 |

Switch → Switch 2 Upgrade Pack ($5)
Marvelous USA PR (June 6, 2026) states players who purchase the Nintendo Switch edition can move to the Switch 2 Edition using a $5 Upgrade Pack available at launch. This is a paid upgrade route — not bundled into the $34.99 Switch SKU and separate from launch-week percentage discounts on new purchases.
- Verify the Upgrade Pack offer on your regional Nintendo store page before checkout.
- Buying Switch 2 Edition outright at $39.99 Americas is the path for new Switch 2 owners who do not already own the Switch edition.
- We do not invent save-transfer or entitlement details beyond what Nintendo and Marvelous PR publish — check store copy on launch day.
