This thread has always had the vibes of a BOLD tbone51 prediction, because it didn't only require Switch 2 to become the fastest-selling console ever, but also shatter the previous record by a huge margin. But I have no idea what Xbox prices you are talking about in relation to tariffs. The USA is the only country worldwide that is stupid, but Xbox prices are seeing increases globally. That has nothing to do with tariffs, just like Sony's recent increase for PS5 prices in many countries outside of the USA had nothing to do with tariffs either. |
Both Xbox and PS have increased in price globally throughout this generation, which is unrelated to tariffs. But one thing that both Sony and Microsoft have been very careful about is not increasing the price of consoles in the US. Xbox consoles are now ~$100 more in the US than they were before May. That is almost certainly a tariff increase and something from which Sony will not be exempt either.
