Fuck, Nintendo. I can't afford that price...

Nintendo is offering two systems Home and portable system ! Why not ??

That doesn't cut it. They're offering a powerful handheld which you can plug in your TV, that's about it. No way this hardware costs that much.

Havent watched the whole press conferece but Nintendo didnt want to show the Euro price and just suggested to go to your retailer. Amazon removed their 330€ price so its clear it will be 350€. What a rippoff doesnt matter if its 330€ or 350€, a PS4 Pro launched for 400€ without any problems because its still 1$ to 1€. And then Nintendo charges for online too.

And people wonder why Sony dominates europe?

Cause' Europeans are super-smart and awesome?

Super smart

Awesome

Excellent taste in food, video games, movies, books, women folk

Hunting Season is done...

Only way to describe this is a rip-off... Looks Nintendo has failed another console generation... Could probably be the last console for Nintendo...

I hope you are conscient of the incredible amount of coments you made that will be totally laughable in a matter of 1-2 years. keep the good work up. Oh and the title thread is lying, but I dont think you care about that.

Doesnt matter. Both PSVR and PS4 Pro directly translate from USD to EUR.

No they don't, PS4 Pro is $300 while in EU it's £350, what you claim is flat out wrong.

lol

Just like the comments I made 1-2 years ago about Wii U which are now invaluable? lol

Dr.Vita talks about Playstation Vita in 2016!

Prediction: Nothing will outsell PSP anymore (except Playstation home consoles)

Does Brexit account for any of this? No reason why it should cost that much more. This is insane. It's not going to do well in EU if this is the case.

Aren't you contradicting your own argument here by saying sales are ZERO?

The sales are ZERO. That is a fact, it hasn't released.

Obviously, the product is not released, yet. But that's not your original argument. You said it is dead on arrival and you have nothing to back it up.

€330 to €350 without a single game! Just 1 new game (€60) and we're talking €390 to €410. Wanted a Pro Controller to? Probably looking at €460 to €480.
