minus-square4am@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 months agoDid Nintendo even raise the price of the Switch 2’in response to tariffs? I thought they announced pricing before Trump even did any tariff nonsense and it remained the same afterwards, but maybe I’m mis-remembering
minus-squareatrielienz@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 months agoThey raised their prices on the switch 1 and priced the switch 2 based on the threatened tariffs before they were enacted. I think some of the switch 2’s game pricing might also have been affected by tariffs but don’t quote me on that.
