That's fine. Nintendo was already planning to impose the Nintendo tax. So I imposed the "I ain't buyin' this shit tax".

Like it or not (I do not), the most important determining factor in American elections is people's feelings about the economy. The horrors being done by our government are easy to turn a blind eye to. But the cost of living is something that can't be avoided or suppressed.
Economic ruin is how we beat these motherfuckers.
My understanding is this has been the price of thousands of gaming communities enacting a “No politics” rule - people want to keep it external.
“This fucking piece of actual trash! He’s using the most broken character this game has ever put out, and trash talking over it like he’s ever fucked a woman. Literally eat a dick. What do you think, chat?…Oh. Holy shit. Sorry, I just saw some stuff about Trump, listen, I’m sorry, but we don’t talk politics here. It can get really toxic.”
If the past few years have taught me ANYTHING, it's that at least half the "gamers" are cheering the deportations on, so uh, yeah, anyway...
Sony: we‘ll make it a little more expensive for everyone else, so no one feels left out <3
Nintendo: t(°-°t)
What you meant to say was
Sony: we'll let the whole world pay for the fascist bullshit the US is pulling <3
Let me fix that for you:
Sony: we'll let the whole world pay astronomical amounts of money because it makes us rich! And if someone calls us on it, we'll say it's all because of the US!
Nintendo: "We also had to raise the price of digital games to $200."
"But tariffs don't apply to digital games."
Nintendo: "Ah, yeah. Well, whenever you notice something like that, tariffs did it."
"But why does the rest of the world have to pay the price, too?"
Nintendo: "TARIFFS!"
You‘re joking about it. I can hear the faint beeping of some LLM waiting to serve this to someone in power.
- for the US
its nintendo, im sure they’re going to find some way to raise the price for everyone else too
I mean, yeah, Sony just did it with its ps5
In future history books: “…But the biggest exodus from the United States was after it was announced the Switch 2 would cost $1000 exclusively there.”
Only 4.125% of the world population is affected. No biggy.
If Nintendo sues the Trump admin I'd have to finally side with Nintendo on a lawsuit.
- Trump threatens Nintendo with tariffs
- Nintendo doesn't seem to GAF
- Trump says he'll talk with Nintendo if they call
- Nintendo doesn't call
- Trump cancels tariff, invites Nintendo CEO to lunch
- MAGA applauds Trump for saving America from something or other
I wasn't going to buy it anyway with those prices
These tariffs shouldn't be 145% of the retail price, they should be 145% of the wholesale price.
