Hence, probably an extra reason Nintendo consoles sell so much in a European market.
Wow, outstanding. Affordable! No vat? So, lite is still enticing in many European markets. Will keep NS afloat a bit more. Europe is the only territory where NS is lagging significantly behind NDS/PS2 and even PS4,despite having outsold them in other places way before. |
The VAT is already included in that 179.90 CHF price. VAT is 8.1% in Switzerland, so not too high fortunately :)
The relatively low electronics prices are also in part because of the strong swiss franc compared to the USD and EUR.
NS2 costs 429/469.-- incl. VAT (462/505 EUR or 542/593$) regularly, which is more in line with the international prices, but i assume that's because it's newer.
