I mean

If they have already made units

Whats the point in raising the price now

[Otti#8624 26]

Still gotta ship them

That's where the tariff issue comes in

[Silent Multiverse 7]

import fees plus inflation plus now tariffs that gotta make switch 2 more pricer than originally should they decide its 700 for switch 2 and 100 dollars for games

due to tariffs

[Otti#8624 26]

I doubt its ever going that high

I already think the current price is with the tariffs in mind, just not the ones they estimated

So I am expecting 500 to 550

At worst 600

[Silent Multiverse 7]

its america, they'll find a way

[Muki 2]

How so tarrifs work then

[Silent Multiverse 7]

people in america are already expecting it to be 650 dollars top or 700 max

[Muki 2]

If this shit costs as much as a ps5 pro someone is going to die

[Daz_4th 7]

they *wouId * but Iike

[Otti#8624 26]

From my very limited knowledge and understanding, the short version is its based on % of what the country says a company needs to pay

5% for each console as an example

[ElectriCole 5]

that's firetruckcing nuts

[Silent Multiverse 7]

its fine you dont live in america you'll be safe from the price uphike

[Otti#8624 26]

So my guess is Nintendo already added the tariffs they thought would be there which ended up with the console costing 450

But Trump went higher so now they need to go back and see if they change or not

They probably put up those prices so when other companies up theirs, they would look like the good guys but then again its nintendo

[Silent Multiverse 7]

due to the 20% tariff he raised on taiwan?

[Muki 2]

The console is gonna fail tho 💔

[Otti#8624 26]

Vietnam, that's where the console is made

Which I think is 17%

[Silent Multiverse 7]

yeah thats still worse

[Otti#8624 26]

For sure

[Daz_4th 7]
