I think you’re right that they don’t need to be shipped through the US, but they most probably are and will be, and using other suppliers or logistics firms that don’t isn’t always cheaper, especially with large volume shipments. Otherwise, even if there are consoles in storage, the increase has to be targeted at a whole market to also partially stave off the tariff costs and to unify a market on its conditions.
Also, Sony were the first to raise the prices for games beyond 60€.
I the US it’s mostly due to the fascist tariffs, no? Latin America has a similar issue, tho that’s because of the tax system in for example Brazil. Considering the financial situation in Argentina, hyperinflation may make price increases necessary.
Sony, on the other hand, is known to raise prices, and may have been the pioneer of raising prices for their games and consoles. That’s why I didn’t care for them.
got any source for that on the nintendo side? Idc about sony.
ending a word with “-tard” references the “r-slur” against disabled people. Regardless of if you still approve of its use (I don’t) it therefore misses the question asked.
Haha, yeah I’m not the OP! But the way my german is phrased here and how the replier interpreted it would read as super passive aggressive (think “I didn’t ask that question but thanks”), and for that I apologize 😭 I just meant I’m not the OP😌
I know that Square you’re talking about!
danke für deinen Beitrag! Auch wenn ich dir Frage nicht gestellt hab, war dein Post super informativ und hab auch echt was gelernt :) Besonders die Perspektive, wie in deinem Feld an das Thema herangegangen wird ist für Laien sehr wertvoll um ein Gefühl für die wichtigen Aspekte zu erkennen! (und denke mal, bei dem Username, dass du deutsch sprechen kannst haha)
@OP: Which option did you decide on in the end? Reading through the comments as someone in a similar situation, going for a NUC(-like) with Intel n150 and installing fitting Linux distros/software seemed the easiest choice. What was your take-away? :)
Hi! I’ve been looking into getting GOS on a Pixel lately. I was wondering if there is a reason you recommend the pixel 8 over the pixel 9?
Yes I, uh… rolls dice saw you once in… rolls dice College, and I remember… rolls dice playing Uno… rolls dice under a Sycamore Tree.
…OP, it’s a weird question. Why ask this in some sub-lemmy of all places? Any reason at all?
