It's $515 including tax in Germany. It's too much for my taste.
-
The price isn’t ridiculous by any stretch
The thing for me is: The Switch is only a closed-down console. You can only buy games through the nintendo store. The Steam Deck is open. I can play my older games, even physical games via external optical drive, on my Steam Deck.

Guessing there's a lot of DLSS going into those resolution and framerate specs...

You can't compare open end games like Minecraft and Civ with a mainly story based game like GTA.
What you do after the campaign is your issue.
I just say that it's understandable if you compare it to traditional media.I will maybe buy it once it's on sale.
No way in hell will I buy it for full price lol.And the price creep will come because you and me are a very quiet minority in comparison to the casual games that buy a nee console solely to play the newest GTA or CoD.
-
And that's totally okay, if you are fine with it.
-
Are they legit charging money for the tech demo game?
Also did they mention how much the "upgrades" will be?
Seems like I'm staying on Steam Deck until that thing wears down into a pile of dust huh.
-
It seems like there's nothing special about the camera, hopefully you could use others.
The SD Express makes sense, they're not just upcharging (you can use any manufacturer's cards), it's how they guarantee the storage is reliably fast enough for all games to prevent lag in loading speeds
But for the other accessories, sure. And charging for switch 2 edition upgrades is annoying.
-
I hope they at least allow gamechat to be used for free locally, and by that I specifically mean allowing the camera stuff to be active (like if you plug in a small USB C camera in portable mode, maybe even if you sit in wireless range but in different rooms)
-
The problem isn't getting enough computing power into the tablet, the problem is cooling and battery power.
-
Switch 1 games can support dynamic resolution, it's probably going to be used for higher end games on Switch 2 as well.
-
That's why I didn't pick Minecraft, Civ has a story mode and KCD is all about its story, just like GTA.
-
It's 70 and 80 tho?
And as an old, even with this price increase games are cheap, especially with how much time you get out of them.
I remember when Mario 3 was 50$ in 1990.
That's a 120$ today I think.
Mario 3 was way easier to make.
-
Only some games are like that, and the ones that are, are cheaper.
I don't know how you think Mario Party Jamboree is unfinished tho. It's felt like the most polished one on years - probably since the first one on the Wii, except it has even more stuff than that.
-
I believe the tariffs do apply to digital goods as well depending where the server is.
Either way, the main reason would be because of digital was cheaper it would cannibalize physical sales.

For sure. It’s a great machine. I have one. But I’m trying to keep expectations down. Some people might be surprised to know that it isn’t a latest gen machine. Some people might have too high expectations because of all the rave it gets.
