Yeah, the console itself is reasonable for a portable machine with relatively weak specs, although I’m not really interested in any more locked down devices at this point, especially after being spoiled by the Steam Deck and being able to run whatever I want on it. The game prices could probably be overlooked if the prices for games decreased over time, but we all know that won’t happen.
In the article you shared, it’s explicitly stated that multilingual switch 2 in Japan is “roughly $473”, so it can’t be due to tariffs. This is Nintendo being greedy. If they can sell the same unit for $330, why do they need to ask $120 more for another language? Doesn’t make sense at all
reminder that the Switch 2 is $333 in Japan and its mostly priced like this due to trump. https://www.gamesradar.com/platforms/nintendo-switch-2/japans-multi-language-switch-2-costs-20-000-more-yen-or-usd130-more-dollars-than-the-japanese-only-version/
The switch itself isn’t the big issue when fucking Mario Cart costs 80€ (90€ if physical)
