Hmm, I wonder if they’ll be taking a hot for the console this time around 🤔 that’s so… Un-Nintendo of them.
*hit
Nintendo adding on US $ 5 to all accessories. Will they be doing the same with the new amiibo ?
🙏 and they didn’t put the price of the console up so hopefully that stops some of the whinging….I’m not naive enough to think that’s true though
Yep I was correct. The decision is final.
What time do the preorders go live?
I’m assuming midnight for at least.
Oh goody, that’s on my day off. All nighter it is.
I’m so confused. But everyone insisted Bad Orange Man would make everything go up in price by 50+%????
Bad orange man doesn’t dictate the loss a company is willing to take. We know a loss is being taken for sure though.
Loss or decrease in margin? Two dramatically different things which is purposefully ignored in these conversations.
That is very true. I guess we won’t really know until we find out the components of this thing.
I like how most people argument was that the tariffs will increase inflation and prices and then you strawman them by saying it go up 50% and when that didn’t happen, you claim victory in your partisan and delusional head
95$ for joycons? Holy freaking moly!
Yes, finally!! <3
god damn….
I’m only pre-ordering if I can get the Mario Kart bundle, because I am not paying $80 for that game. I can’t get it, I’ll wait, either for a restock or if another enticing bundle shows up later.
Never buying this overpriced crap. Steam deck for life
No one cares lil bro 😂
Enjoy your underpowered trash that’s pointless if you already have a PC 🤣
