It's quite obvious price is holding back the Switch in Europe.

No idea why it its like 420$ USD here in DK.

As others have said, stock doesnt seem to be a issue atm here.

Price is just too high..... right now a new PS4slim is around 300$ USD here.

Thats a massive differnce in price, and it seems like not too many consumers are willing to pay it.

One factor that is different is because your DK price includes VAT, which the US price does not.

The second factor is that the exchangerate from YEN to DKK is different than the one for YEN to USD.

 

I did this calculation for sweden and if you subtracted our VAT and adjusted for exchangerate our switches are about 10 % (or one game :P ) more expensive than in the US. So these 10 % I can't explain (migth be import duties or something) but it's not as much as it seems when you only take the price on the shelf here and compare it to the US shelf price (since USA has a strange habit of not including VAT in the shelf price).
