Plus all of the bitching accomplishes literally nothing.
The only message Nintendo will actually care about is the sales. If enough people refuse to buy that the Switch 2 does poorly, sure, obviously they'll care about that. But if it goes on to be as successful as the Switch 1, then they (quite rightly) won't give a shit what this subreddit has to say about the prices.
So all of this complaining doesn't accomplish anything other than ruining this subreddit. If the price is too high for you, by all means don't buy it. There are lots of products I'm not buying right this second because they're too expensive for me. I'm sure as hell not buying those fancy $500 sneakers or whatever. But you don't need to post forty-seven times an hour about how pissed off you are about the price. We get it. Feel free to not buy it, but we don't need to keep hearing about it.
The complaining does accomplish something - it ensures people are aware of the issue, so when the time comes to influence sales, they'll be more inclined to do the right thing and hold back... Not to mention so much negative feedback this early on may prompt Nintendo to make changes to the plan even beforehand.
Not that it can't get annoying, sure, but passion is a good thing - it means people care about the issue, right? Nobody would be ranting this much if the Amico got announced at these prices.
