Why Switch 2 and PS5 prices rose in 2026
Both brands raised prices worldwide in 2026. Sony announced increases from April 2: in the US the standard PS5 went from US$549.99 to US$649.99, the Digital Edition to US$599.99 and the PS5 Pro to US$899.99, according to Infobae. For Latin America, Sony said the new prices would apply once stores ran out of inventory, and Bloomberg Línea estimated at the time that the digital PS5 would go in Chile from CLP 639,990 to about CLP 704,000.
Nintendo did the same: the Switch 2 launched in 2025 at US$449.99 in the US and in May 2026 rose to US$499.99, according to Futuro. In Chile, the increase from CLP 629,990 to 659,990 has applied since September, and the company attributed it to "various changes in market conditions". In its latest earnings report, Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa said they are not considering "additional changes". Futuro attributes the increases to the rising cost of memory and storage chips, whose price has multiplied more than 2.5 times worldwide.

Which to buy: Switch 2 or PS5
The choice depends more on games than on price. The Switch 2 is both handheld and home console, and it is the only way to play Nintendo titles such as Mario Kart World, which costs CLP 82,990 separately at Paris. The PS5 has more graphics power, Sony's exclusives and GTA VI from day one; the Switch 2 will not have GTA VI, at least for now. These are the main differences:
| Nintendo Switch 2 | PS5 / PS5 Pro | |
|---|---|---|
| Entry price in Chile | CLP 579,990 on sale; CLP 659,990 suggested | CLP 729,990 (digital with 2 games) |
| Handheld | Yes | No (the PlayStation Portal, CLP 279,990, streams from the PS5) |
| GTA VI | Not announced | Yes, from November 19 |
| Disc drive | Uses game cards | Depends on the model; the store's Pro is digital |
