Switch 2

The Steam Deck had a sudden price hike of 300 USD shortly after Nintendo said that the Switch 2 will have a price hike of 50 USD.

23.68 million SW2 units worldwide, after one year, huh? Let's compare with the other Nintendo consoles and handhelds... Switch 1: 17.79 million units Wii U: around 6 million units 3DS: 4.5 million units Wii: 13.17 million units DS: 14.43 million units Gamecube: around 9.5 million units GBA: 6.5 mill

No it isn’t. What’s unique is that they specifically stated the reason for Switch 2 components, such as docks, controllers, that pointless camera and so on, have increased in price over their launch price was directly because of the tariffs. That’s one of the major points of the lawsuit if I’m not m

FFXIV Coins can be used for optional items There it is. Nintendo wants a cut of every Switch 2 player using the Mogstation. Even the PlayStation version doesn't do that lol (though we do get one free Aetheryte destination as a PlayStation Plus perk)

As someone in their 50's who has been gaming for over 45 years, I can safely say that the Switch 2 is my favourite system of all time and I am someone who doesn’t really care for 90% of Nintendo first party titles outside of Animal Crossing.

The Switch is Nintendo's perfect console. It seemed to me that they figured out that homeconsoles were a hit and miss sales wise and that generations like the GameCube and Wii U their handhelds were getting the most revenue so they decided to take the risk and make a hybrid of both and it was a hit

Except Nintendo never raised the price of the Nintendo Switch 2 or its games when the Vietnam tariffs were announced, they literally ate the cost for consumers outside of accessories.

It's true, they don't. Also, Nintendo did not raise the price of the Switch 2 in response to tariffs, so the extra costs were paid by them anyway, not the consumer.

Hardware is amazing but software is a concern, just 9.46 million sold this quarter compared to 16.41 million for Switch 1 in it's equivalent quarter. After five quarters Switch 2 totals 58.17 million games sold compared to 68.97 million for Switch 1. The Switch 1 had a much lower installbase at this

It makes sense to me. At 500USD it's probably the best entry price for any gaming related console. You're not getting a reasonable PC for 500$, a series x cost 800usd, the gimped series s for 500usd, ps5 is 600USD (didn't even realize how much Xbox has basically setup their console to fail with thei
