What makes you think everyone else’s MSRP isn’t
based oninfluenced by the US MSRPI don’t think that those prices for US reflect new tariffs in any way. First of all, they were announced before tariff rates but importantly it’s also a complete tossup if they’ll be in place by the summer and in what form. If they remain as they are then I think Americans will be paying noticeably more for their consoles and games.
It’s hard for me to believe that Nintendo wouldn’t have taken into account the possibility of tariffs when deciding on pricing. Trump has only been talking about them for over a year.
It would be kind of weird to even try to guess something this unpredictable and most claiming to have any idea turned out to be wrong. I mean, how do you plan for tariffs that could be anywhere from 0 to 50%?
Soon they might not be anymore. Just like nobody internationally takes Canadian pricing as reference for tech.
