And just give up America entirely? Nah
Comment on Nintendo ‘warned to expect 145% tariff on Nintendo Switch 2’
echodot@feddit.uk 4 days agoIf they tried to spread the cost amongst everyone no one would buy the switch is already borderline unreasonably expensive. Limiting the price increase to only the tariffed country means they’ll only lose out on the American market not the everyone else in the world market, which is bigger.

But I repeat myself.
Seriously I just explained why they don’t have a choice, and you’re like, nah they’re still going to do it, even though I literally explained why that can’t happen. Did you even read my comment?

Oh, a random lemmygoer explained it? I guess there’s no opening for discussion then.

It’s not about discussion. There isn’t two opinions here there is the fact they’re not doing that and me explaining why they’re not doing that.

But why expensive? It’s 30$ more than the steam deck and has much more power

It’s not more powerful than the steam deck.
The steam deck is a portable computer the switch can only play switch games. Those games are hugely expensive, and the price is controlled by nintendo who infamously never decrease their game prices even after 10 years.
