    That’s fine. Nintendo was already planning to impose the Nintendo tax. So I imposed the “I ain’t buyin’ this shit tax”.

        Hopefully gamers get together and protest Trump out of office for artificially bumping up the costs of goods.

        Tarrifs = Tax

        A tax that working people pay, in the country that set the tarriff.

        145% of 450 is 652, you add those together and it’s essentially 1100$. And that’s before tax at the register in the US.

        I don’t even want to imagine what is going to be the price for it here in Brazil. After the ps4 launched for nearly $2000 I haven’t even looked at any console retail prices here again.

        Yeah I didn’t wanna pay that for a PS5. And the PS5 GPU alone is likely 5 times more power then what’s rumored to be in the switch 2… no way I’m paying that for a switch.

      Thanks Trump for adding a 145% “tax” on my electronics. How am I supposed to afford anything now!?

      Guess I may as well just go protest instead.

      I wasn’t going to get one even if it was £20, but how? Trump set the tariffs. Obviously it’s going to cost a shitload more if there is a 145% tariff in the US.
