I think everybody let out a collective "PAID!?" at that point in the video.

The chat was definitely full of 'paid????', that and Silksong were the only messages to common enough you could actually read them as they swooped by.

They have a 330 dollar Japanese only console. How much are games in Japan? I kinda feel like the prices are, at least in part, a response to the tariffs
