How could it? It's just data, no physical goods are being imported. Do tariffs apply to phone calls from other countries?
-
Yes, Japan got the only exception because Nintendo knows the price sucks and they want to make sure it sells well in their home country. Mind you, this is a special region-locked Switch that only supports Japanese.
-
Don't know, use internet these days, but in ye old days taxes sort of applied to long distance calls in a way so I'm unsure
-
Maybe I’ll get physical copies of Switch 2 games heavily discounted later on.
Later on, as in, in like 30 years? Assuming physical Switch 2 games don't become prized collector's items like every other Nintendo consoles' physical games
-
That asshole company nobody cares about?
-
Hold on they are suing a grandma right now. They'll get back to you soon.
-
I wonder how quickly the modding scene will crack it.
-
Imagine booting steam os on this thing.
-
They e also flat out said it will be a long time before they even consider a 2nd version. Performance efficiency and battery tech need to make some leaps to make it practical.
-
I got the vast majority of my physical copies from Amazon discounted, not sure what you‘re on about.
-
That takes away much of the appeal of physical copies since Nintendo can still still control how it’s used after it is sold, like modify the contents, ban your key, etc. Buying would not be owning in that case.
-
Also did they mention how much the “upgrades” will be?
My understanding is it's $10 for upgrades that just run better with no new content, and $20 for ones that also have new content of come sort.
-
At $80-$90 for physical editions, I wouldn't count on the used market helping that much.
-
That asshole company everyone* cares about. My hatred of Nintendo runs deep. But I still watched the direct. I'm so excited for the innovative new features, and the new Mario Kart looks sick. I am disgusted that they will use the money to go after fans. I need help
-
I think I'm going to hack my switch 1 now, and put some custom mario kart tracks on it
-
FIVE HUNDRED NINETY-NINE US DOLLARS
-
The nickel and diming about every single thing they mentioned makes Sony and Microsoft seem generous by comparison.

If you think steam deck is walled garden, I have news for you!
-
I don't! The other walled garden I'm referring to is a PS5.
-
From what i am reading only mario party jamboree and kirby upgrades will cost money, the zelda ones are free if you pay for switch online and metroid and pokemon dont appear to have any proce attached to their upgrades.
The running theory is thst most games wont cost to upgrade unless they offer expanded content. But expansions costing money is nothing new.
