Nintendo Co. warned it may yet increase the cost of its long-anticipated new console, after projecting weaker-than-expected initial sales of the Switch 2.

Furukawa said that Nintendo's goal is make the Switch 2 very popular. "The launch of Switch 2 and the early spread of the hardware are our top priorities," he said. With that will come an increase in marketing expenses, which Nintendo expects to make by selling more software (games).

Nintendo has made some major changes to its Account User Agreement and Privacy Policy in an attempt to stop Switch 2 piracy.   Nintendo has never been shy when it comes to protecting its intellectual property.
