Memory costs cloud Switch 2 pricing doubts as Nintendo reports mixed sales

TL;DR Summary
Nintendo CEO Shuntaro Furukawa said rising memory costs could pressure Switch 2 profitability in the next fiscal year, but near-term hardware profitability has not been hit and no price changes are decided yet. Domestic Switch 2 sales surpassed expectations while overseas performance was slightly weaker, helped by new holiday titles like Pokemon Legends: Z-A – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition and Kirby Air Riders.
