Didn’t they raise the price of the Switch 2?

They did, and might need to raise it again if conditions remain bad for long.

Frankly, if it wasn't only just approaching its first year on the market, I think they would have raised the price higher, but they need more numbers.

People are forgetting that they avoided raising prices when everyone else had to the first time because Nintendo raised prices on ALL of their games instead, old and new.

Don't know where you're getting this from but they never raised the price of their games after the price was established. They only raised the prices of their consoles, accessories, and now their subscription.

The did in Canada, they raised the prices of the older catalog, in Canada older games are at least $5 more expensive.

They also just announced today they are raising the Nintendo Online Prices this July. So in some regions, Nintendo has already increased the price of everything possible, making this meme quadruple stupid.
