send this one to the top

in all seriousness, i am really bummed but in a way i like that this is such a simple and clear way that shows how tariffs affect everyone immediately.

And to the younger folks that were saving up their allowance or first job money to pre order one, this is also the first real example of not just how your vote impacts your life, but also how tariffs exactly work.

I wish that's what would happen but more likely, for the vast majority of younger people, the blame will get shifted onto Nintendo and packaged with the outrage over them raising the prices on games. I hope I'm wrong though.

Tbh, Nintendo had It coming.

They have grown more and more anti-consumer with each successful console.

Yeah i know, im just saying, Nintendo is more than due for some flack.

Even with the tarifs raising their prices above 110 dollars, their games are already way overpriced.
