Nintendo announcing the price rise so far in advance is a funny thing. It's great for consumers to have warning, but with the way things have gone by the time we get to September that $50 price rise isn't going to be anywhere near enough lol. Since the announcement in April things have gotten so much worse. |
Nintendo already said the price raise was not enough to cover for the components price increase right when they announced it, $50 was no enough even in April and they knew it.
They probably want to build an install base as big as possible so they sell the most first party games they can, so they are purposedly taking the hit to expand their customer base.
Dunno how long they will want to keep doing it tho.
