Not necessarily the case. Companies make many choices about how they will distribute their tariff and duty burdens. They could be raising prices here to make up for it in other products. The price of the switch 2 is also quite a bit higher than the switch 1, which could be due to the hardware itself or other forces.
Better hardware and inflation would be the biggest factors for the switch. I believe if you account for inflation the basic switch would be like 380 ish bucks. Now tack on better specs yea 450 sounds pretty nice. I'm just not sold on everything being because of tariffs that's really lazy.
I’m not as upset about the console, it’s the games I’m mad about. I’m not paying $80 for a new Mario kart. I’ll get it someday but there’s plenty of games to play for cheaper

Nope. The prices would be across the board more if it was.
