60 1 game = 390 = PS4 Pro
normal controller 60
online fee ?

normal controller is 75€

So if you want Switch+Zelda+another controller+Mario Kart 8

you're at 535

It's sad Nintendo and MS don't take Europe as seriously, why the €30 premium, why always let retailers decide the price? Why the "Tier 1 countries" BS?

Because your taxes are higher. Every luxury good has to cost more unless Nintendo wants to eat that cost.

Nope that's the official prices in europe

System is 329.90€

Pro Controller 74.90€

Zelda 69.90€

Mario Kart 8 deluxe 59.90€

Total is 534,60€

 

And you need to add accessories

Case to transport it 12.90€ 

Screen Protector 9.90/14.90 (film/glass)

Online Subscription probably at least 49.90 a year could be more, since all the Switch are going through the roof.

 

Also joycons are 54.99€ each or 84.99€ for both. But why buy more joycons? to play ARMS? Don't do that.

Yeah like when "This week will be the last one WiiU outsells Ps4 in Japan" and then WiiU outsold Ps4 for like 5 more consecutive weeks xD


Or when I said that Wii U would never manage to outsell PS Vita lifetime numbers and that Wii U production would be ceased. xD

You don't have official sales numbers from the PS Vita though. Vgchartz is overtracking it by a lot in Europe. There's no way it sells that much weekly when I can't even find it in any store here.

Clearly a prediction based on price. What are you even arguing at this point? And why?

And I said, that sales, or let them be pre-orders, speak a different language than your "prediction".  As to what I see, is that people are buying into it. In the end we will see what will be by official numbers.

A lot of things sell out on Amazon, including consoles who end up flopping. Type up almost any known game on Google with the right keywords, and you'll see a news or forum thread concerning it being "sold out on Amazon".

In fact, for some reason (maybe more fans seeking reassurance of sales?) Nintendo products seem specially prone to it. You can find out almost any Nintendo game, Amiibo, console etc. being tagged as "sold out" on the internet at some point, even and specially when sales and reviews ended up... not stellar, to say at least.

Totaly worth it.

How anyone cant afford it I dont understand

How can anyone not afford a PS4 Pro too, its only 70€ more right? For a lot of people Nintendo isnt their first choice of platform and thats the absolute majority, 330€ and 140€ for a pro controller plus a game and youre easily close to 500€. Ahh yeah and you have to pay for online.

I believe you are obsessed with Sony products or why do you mention them in pretty much every thread and post regardless of the topic?

And yes, I also mentioned Sony in this thread but only because of the difference if it comes to recommended prices in Europe.

I just tell the facts, for 70€ more you can get the most powerfull console. I am more obsessed about Nintendos well being here, the price isnt right in europe and you gonna see it in sales.
