Launch and pre-sale packages in Brazil

The company will sell the console in two versions: the traditional and one that includes the new Mario Kart World, one of the most anticipated releases of the year. Pre-sale will start soon, according to Nintendo's statement, but there are no details on the authorized stores to sell the product in advance.

Although the company has not reported specific pre-sale dates, the recommendation for brand fans is to track official channels and specialized groups so as not to miss the opportunity to secure the console early on. The version with the game included costs $ 300 more than the traditional model, which can influence the choice of consumers.

Games arrive with location and prices above average

The first two confirmed titles for Switch 2 were Donkey Kong Bananza and Mario Kart World. Both will be available at the launch and completely located in Brazil, which includes menus, subtitles and voice acting.

However, despite the good news for Brazilian players, prices generated repercussions on social networks. The amount of R $ 499.90 charged by Mario Kart World, especially, drew attention for overcoming the average previous franchise releases in the country. Still, the history of sales of the series indicates strong appeal among the public.

Market expectation and impact of launch

The launch of Nintendo Switch 2 marks a new phase for the company in Brazil. After a period of uncertainty and official absence, the brand again bet on the domestic market with its own distribution and more solid presence in retail.

The arrival of the new model should warm the game sector in the second half, especially among Japanese brand enthusiasts. Thus, the promise of localized titles and the resumption of the Switch line with technical improvements put the new console as one of the main releases of the year in the segment.

So far, Nintendo has not confirmed the launch of other games or promotional packages with Switch 2. However, the company should disclose new information in the coming weeks as the console's official debut date in Brazil is approaching.
