Switch Online will see a price increase in Japan (UPDATE)
Not a major increase
Due to Japan's upcoming consumption tax increase from 8% to 10%, Nintendo is sending out an email to Switch Online users letting them know that prices will go up on Oct. 1st, 2019. As it stands right now, ¥300 will increase to ¥306, ¥800 to ¥815, ¥2,400 to ¥2,448, and so-on.
UPDATE - As this is a price hike that will affect all purchase in Japan, eShop game prices will also see the 8% to 10% increase as well.
