Funny someone mentioned a vertical mode, that could bring DS compatibility 
Surprising so many expected higher price? Bandai Namco even says "The price is exactly what I’d expect from a marketing point of view, but if you count all the individual peripherals… The full thing is pretty cheap, and I say that as someone familiar with the inner workings of the system. I have no idea how they kept the price that low".

29,980 is the cost. I will assume that A) Japan uses VAT, and B) that is the value post VAT. This that is the final price point with tax included and everything. That is $260 dollars US. It cost $300 dollars US and that is pre tax. So around $330 or so post tax. That is a $70 dollars difference. |
Are you sure about that? Manuel mentioned the Switch prices in a store (I think it was Bic Camera) are marked without taxes.
