If they tried to spread the cost amongst everyone no one would buy the switch is already borderline unreasonably expensive. Limiting the price increase to only the tariffed country means they'll only lose out on the American market not the everyone else in the world market, which is bigger.

    But why expensive? It’s 30$ more than the steam deck and has much more power

    It's not more powerful than the steam deck.

    The steam deck is a portable computer the switch can only play switch games. Those games are hugely expensive, and the price is controlled by nintendo who infamously never decrease their game prices even after 10 years.
