| HyrulianScrolls said: They will absolutely ensure its death in the U.S. if they go to 600 or higher. Nintendo relies on casual gamers and families to be their bread and butter. Absolutely none of those people will buy it at that price. They’d be far smarter to keep the price, take the hit of not making the level of profits they hoped at first, and go for increased demand in the market from all of the Americans who will want to buy a switch 2 if it’s “only†$450 vs Xbox and PlayStation going up bc of the tariffs. Far smarter strategy here. |
People have already did the math on this matter. Excluding software sold. This would litteraly put Nintendo into a 9 billion deficit long term.
This is absolutely not happening.
In worse case, there is a possibility for them to eat some of the lost at best but they would absolutely make it so there definitely not losing much in the process.
Also wouldn't be the worse idea to effectively "Re-launch" the console with a new model just like the PS3 dis back in the day after the orange guy investitures is over or in case, these tariffs were reversed.
All in all Nintendo is not gonna tank their profits, revenue and margins simply to appeal to the US market.
