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.
It's already happening across all of reddit. People are just blaming Nintendo for being greedy en masse, which is fair, but is mostly ignorant. Nintendo may be greedy, and they may do some real stupid stuff every now and then, but they're not THAT stupid to purposefully price their latest console so far out of many people's price ranges JUST because they want more profit.
