Switch first-party games cost between $50 and $60, prices vary for indie and remixed titles
You'll pay a premium for games like Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
Nintendo Switch's online store is up, and first-party games slated for the system's March 3 launch date carry price tags ranging from $49.99 to $59.99.
Arms, a fighting game where players use the Joy-Con controller to box with extendable arms like Street Fighter 2's Dhalsim, will cost $49.99. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is listed at $59.99, as is Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, a remix of 2014's Mario Kart 8 for Wii U.
Snipperclips, a game where players cut out paper characters to solve puzzles, costs $19.99. Most listings on the store are TBA/TBD.
Given the range of titles shown for the Switch, from brand-new games like Breath of the Wild to remixes and re-releases like Capcom's Ultra Street Fighter 2, a healthy mix of prices is to be expected.
Nintendo Switch launches on March 3 for $299.99. The company announced two SKUs for the console: one set with gray Joy-Con controllers, and another with neon blue and red Joy-Cons.
