This article first appeared on Game Empress, reporting that Pokémon Wind and Pokémon Welle are listed for €79.99 on Amazon Germany, potentially ahead of the anticipated 2027 release of the Switch 2. You can find more gaming news at gameempress.com.

Amazon Germany is now listing Pokémon Winds and Pokémon Waves (the German versions of the games) for Nintendo Switch 2 at a price of €79.99 each. While the listings are currently available on Amazon, this price is likely a placeholder and doesn’t necessarily reflect the final retail price set by Nintendo. Here’s a breakdown of what the listings reveal and what hasn’t been officially confirmed yet.

What Amazon Germany’s Listings Show

The Pokémon Wind and Pokémon Welle games for Nintendo Switch 2 are now listed on Amazon.de for €79.99 each. Seeing them listed on Amazon.de is more significant than just hearing rumors, but it’s still important to remember these listings aren’t official confirmations.

The game currently listed as ‘Pokémon Wind’ is still in development, so the title and images are subject to change. The listed release date of December 31, 2027 is also temporary. Nintendo has only stated the game will launch sometime in 2027, and a precise release date hasn’t been announced yet by Nintendo or The Pokémon Company.

What Nintendo and The Pokémon Company Have Actually Confirmed

Pokémon fans, get ready! The official Pokémon website has confirmed that two brand-new games are in development, and they’ll be exclusive to the Nintendo Switch 2. Both games, currently titled Pokémon Wind and Pokémon Welle (according to Nintendo Germany), are scheduled to launch worldwide in 2027.

The price of €79.99 for the new Pokémon games currently appears only on Amazon. Nintendo and the official Pokémon website haven’t announced an official retail price yet.

Why €79.99 Is Worth Paying Attention To

Okay, so I’m hearing Pokémon Winds and Waves might cost around €79.99, which is pretty expensive for a Switch 2 game here in Europe. If that price is real when Nintendo officially announces things, it means this game will be one of the pricier titles when the new console launches, not your average, everyday Switch game.

This isn’t the only evidence we’ve seen. While it’s interesting that Amazon Germany listed both games at the same price, retailer listings aren’t always accurate – they sometimes show expected prices or are temporary. Since Nintendo has only said the games will release sometime in 2027, there’s still plenty of time for that date to change before it’s officially announced.

It looks like Nintendo might price major Switch 2 games around €79.99, but this isn’t official until Nintendo or The Pokémon Company announces it.

What This Means for Switch 2 Pricing Broadly

Ever since the Switch 2 came out, people have been watching its game prices closely. If the new Pokémon games cost €79.99, it would likely establish the price point for Nintendo’s biggest games on the system. You can find a list of all confirmed Switch 2 games in our guide.

Currently, the price of €79.99 for Pokémon Winds and Waves is just a listing from a retailer, and not an official price set by Nintendo.

Both Pokémon Wind and Pokémon Wave are currently listed on Amazon Germany for €79.99 each for the Nintendo Switch 2, with a tentative release date of December 31, 2027. While the listings are genuine and available on Amazon.de, the price isn’t confirmed. Nintendo and The Pokémon Company have stated the games will arrive on Switch 2 in 2027, but the official retail price will be announced by them at a later date.
