So the Switch on Japan finally got ahead of NA as I've been speculating it could happen in the past few months.
With the Yen over 150 per dollar, a Switch OLED is less than $240 in Japan, some $100 cheaper than anywhere else. How many of these are being bootleg-exported to the rest of Asia and beyond and how long will Nintendo keep the prices that low?
Hard to believe it isn't a very significant percentage this late in the lifecycle and knowing the same thing happened to the PS5 before its price increases.
