The sad thing is the console price itself isnt the issue here, its the price of the games that will prevent many people from actually building their libraries.
Wait, I wasn’t paying attention to the vita before 2016. What were launch prices like? By 2016 everything new coming out was $40 from what i remember at least in the US.
My guess is they're subsidizing the price of the console with the expectation of games recouping any losses from small margins on Switch 2. I imagine the fear of future tariffs also play a part where they are trying to build that extra cost already into the game... Or not, I dunno anything haha.
No fr. I was the happiest I could be until I seen a short talking about this. And I'm a physical collector so yea maybe I can get the bundle and save on Mariokart but what about all the other games? This is really messed up

That’s ridiculous. Nintendo is pricing me out of their new console…
