"The recent price hike for Nintendo's amiibo by Walmart, GameStop, and Best Buy indicates a shift in pricing strategy, likely reflecting increased production costs or market demand."
"The amiibo price adjustments coincide with the upcoming launch of the Switch 2 and its accessories, which have also seen price increases recently from Nintendo."
Walmart, GameStop, and Best Buy have increased the prices of Nintendo amiibo ahead of their release. The Street Fighter 6 amiibo now costs $39.99 (up from $29.99), while the new Legend of Zelda amiibo is priced at $29.99 (up from $19.99). Notably, these price hikes come as Nintendoâs new Switch 2 console emerges, although Nintendo is keeping the console price stable at $449.99. The price increases for accessories like the Joy-Con and Pro Controller further indicate a broader adjustment in Nintendo's product pricing strategy as the market evolves.
