I have both and no shade but one of these girls can run games that the other girl can't, so her prices (even though expensive) is more legitimate.

 

The ps5 has no exclusive games.

Just because you have Internet at your house doesn't mean you have to lie on it for free...

How likely is it the prices will go up?

The only ps5 timed console exclusives that probably won't come to pc is astrobot and the demon souls remake. If we include everything that's a timed exclusive it's only 20 games in the span of 5 years. Most of what people play on their ps5 are also available on ps4. The only game to sell more than 10 million copies is spiderman2 and the list of games to sell more than a million copies is slimmer than the wiiu's line up.

We'll find a way to mod it to play Switch 1+2 games

Almost a certainty. Switch 2 production is taking place in a country with 46% tariffs. That doesn't just wipe out Nintendo's profit margin, it probably means they would lose quite a bit of money if they don't increase the price. We could be looking at a $600 price tag if the tariffs hold

The tariff postponement

 

The MAGA bros ****** around and found out!

Watch them say the Switch 2 is too woke now

Girl You're literally fighting everyone and their mama in this thread for a multi-million dollar company that is raising their prices.

 

Are you NOT embarrassed?

The PS5's subscription is worth more than Nintendo's though? 
 

I managed to download several $80 dollar games for FREE, by just having a subscription to PlayStation that cost me 135$ for the whole year. Mind you I have downloaded $400 worth of games so far

It would be cheaper to get this brick repaired instead

I mean a family plan for premium Nintendo online between a group of 4 friends costs $20/year per person and the classic game catalogue are probably better than most of the free games you'll never touch.

The thread title update. Oh the gaymers are LIVID. 

[gagacasanova]

We really shouldn't be surprised by any prices at this point.

What if this is what causes the "anti-woke" gamers to turn against Trump

I'll take it!  We need as many chronically online groups to drag that loser.  Hatred for these tariffs could be the one thing that actually unifies the country for the first time in forever.  And it's not just gamers, it's the parents of kids and teenagers who are going to be complaining about this for months.  

[Life Savers]

It will be $600 now

Considering that I'm making actual points about the cost of games and the only defense you mouth breathers can come up with is to make **** up and shove words in my mouth, yes I find this extremely embarrassing but not on my part. The tier of argument I'm responding to includes claims like "b-b-b-but I own a PS5 pro" and "wages stagnated and that's Nintendo's problem".

 

You aren't entitled to video games, if you so feel personally attacked by a price tag that your only response is to crash out like a child, don't buy it. If you're not just part of the usual extremely vocal minority crusty reddit mod forced gamer outrage mob, prices will come down when it doesn't sell. We both know that won't happen though, stay poor I guess.
