Amazon Germany Lists Pokémon Winds & Waves at €79.99

Amazon Germany’s product page lists Pokémon Winds & Waves for the Switch 2 with a €79.99 pre-order price for the physical edition and a 2027 release window. The page shows a Dec. 31, 2027 placeholder date commonly used when a retailer has only a year rather than a firm launch day. The listing does not include a specific launch date or official confirmation from Nintendo.

The euro price prompted discussion about how future first-party Switch 2 software may be priced in the region. Several first-party Switch 2 titles carry prices around €80 in Europe; Mario Kart World is listed at €89.99 for the physical edition. Joe Merrick, known online as Serebii, pointed out that €79.99 or higher for first-party Switch 2 games is not unusual in the Eurozone.

Pricing in the United States has followed a different pattern for some Nintendo releases. Nintendo of America has offered lower-priced digital eShop editions than physical copies beginning with Yoshi and the Mysterious Book. The upcoming Star Fox remake is listed at $49.99 for the physical edition in the U.S. and €59.99 in Europe, illustrating regional variation.

Nintendo announced a global price increase for the Switch 2 console effective in September, raising the U.S. price by $50 to $499.99 and increasing the European price by €30 to €499.99. The console price change has been part of discussions about possible software pricing adjustments, but the Amazon listing does not include any Nintendo statement on Winds & Waves pricing.

The Amazon.de entry remains an early retailer listing with a year-only release window and a European price tag. Nintendo has not released official pricing or a launch date for Pokémon Winds & Waves, and regional retail prices do not automatically determine U.S. dollar retail costs.
