50 % increase is a lot. It's not terrible (the game pricing for Switch 2 Editions is though) but I would consider the console itself just a smidge overpriced as well (at the time of its release).

The increase primarily comes from the decline in the value of our currency; it is only a $50 increase in adjusted dollars, and indeed it is only $50 more than what the Switch 1 OLED costs now.

I mean that might be true in the US, but the console was also 469 officially. They use neither currency where I live though, but my point of it being a 50 % increase still stands in most regions and inflation won't stop me from considering that a lot personally. The general consumer doesn't have 50 % more money now than back then that's for sure. But again, I did say slightly overpriced, it's mostly those Switch 2 Editions that get you.

(and sorry for the necro post ofc I haven't been online for a while)
