Amiibo Prices Increase Ahead of Switch 2 Launch

News summary

Multiple sources report that the price of Nintendo's Amiibo figures is set to rise in the United States, with new Legend of Zelda Amiibos increasing to around $29.99–$30 and Street Fighter 6 Amiibos reaching $39.99–$40, according to recent GameStop listings. This price hike comes alongside previous increases for Switch 2 accessories, which Nintendo attributes to changing market conditions and ongoing U.S. tariffs. While the new prices are not yet officially confirmed by Nintendo for North America, retailers have already adjusted their listings, sparking concern among gamers. Previously released Amiibos appear to retain their original prices for now, though future adjustments are possible as stock runs out. The price changes follow broader trends of rising costs in the gaming industry, with both hardware and software seeing increases in tandem with the Switch 2 launch. The situation may evolve if the tariff landscape changes, potentially affecting future pricing.
