Is it really an inflated price or is it just with no savings? 

A Switch and Zelda should cost no more than 370-385 with tax. So it's about 10-15 upcharged. Which isn't bad but it's still a forced bundle which people don't look fond upon especially with discounts at Best Buy and Amazon on software.

Switch 299.99

Zelda 59.99

$360.00 without tax

Tax is like 7% if you didn't know in most places. A few lower, but many more higher. Some have none. The national average is like 8.5% 

Your $385 number is at the 7% rate. So that is basically the minimum one can expect to pay for teh system and 1 game.

Yeah, that's wher I got my numbers from. 360 without tax, around 383 with tax. Even with 8.5 percent it shouldn't hit 399. And also, that's probably 399 with tax right so everything is counted as one unit. So if that's the case it's around 426 including tax. I was just saying that a lot of people are getting discounts with best buy and amazon that they can't get with gamestop and gamestop to be quite frank, suks balls.



Why do we have a thread on this? Can't you just say it in the Nintendomination thread?

Yes, but at what prices. You currently have Switch even on Amazon, but lowest price is $425 for regular model. :D

Imagine how bad it's going to be by Christmas if the switch keeps its momentum going

If Nintendo does not increase production in next few months, Christmas will be hell for finding Switch.

Still just Gamestop's forced bundles.

I finally went this route. Their bundles are getting better which is a small sign that we should start seeing them in stock more. Before they wanted to sell the 600 dollar bundle that had a ton of crap you did not want, now they still want bundles but it is a lower price point and is pretty much just good stuff.
