Wait, that’s not how you’re supposed to play Civ? Is there any other way?!

We are here to discuss Nintendo’s prices, not the economical system itself. This would derail the conversation too much.

If you want to go down the rabbit hole, I suggest you open a new thread. However, keep in mind that the majority of Lemmy users will likely agree, given that this is a bit of a leftist echo chamber. And to make sure we’re on the same page: we ARE on the same page. Capitalism isn’t what we want, yet, it is what we currently have (and will have when Mario Cart will release for Switch 2).

Don’t give them clicks.

We all know that defining a price for a product across markets, regions, continents is more complex than “development cost”, “inflation”, “greed”, or “NiNtEnDo”.

Factually, it has nothing to do with tariffs, and definitely has to do with cost and capitalism. Feel free to add what’s missing, but please be complete, as someone will likely argue differently because of something you forgot.

Nothing to do with tariffs, just a reflection of higher development cost and, and that’s perfectly fine to an extent, the very core principle of capitalism.

Let’s please not discuss if capitalism is good. It’s just the way it is.

The point is that Orange Guy doesn’t affect my Switch 2 pricing.

Maybe the US will understand that these tariffs primarily do over thing: raise prices for their own citizens.

Living in the EU, I’m looking forward to the non-tariffed Switch 2.

Hell yeah! But actually, what?
