Nintendo President Shuntaro Furukawa recently addressed concerns regarding the rising costs of memory components and their potential impact on the pricing of the upcoming Switch 2. Despite the surge in RAM prices, largely driven by increased demand from AI data centers, Furukawa reassured shareholders that there are currently no plans to adjust the console’s price. This decision reflects Nintendo’s commitment to maintaining a stable supply chain and ensuring long-term profitability.

The anticipation for the next installment in The Legend of Zelda series is palpable, especially with recent hints from series producer Eiji Aonuma. He suggested that the upcoming game could draw inspiration from the recently released Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment, a title that merges Zelda’s rich lore with Koei Tecmos signature hack-and-slash gameplay. This collaboration may pave the way for innovative gameplay mechanics and storytelling in the next Zelda adventure.
