Ok, so for some reason us Swedes are getting fucked hardest of all.

Nintendo should raise the price to $1020 in Norway instead to offset the price in Sweden. Those Scandinavian oil sheikhs should have compassion with the Swedes.
The Japanese probably feel some sort of kinship to their agglutination brethrens. That would explain the lower price.

Well, that's a helluva lot cheaper than in Sweden. I seriously don't understand why we specifically are getting fucked hardest of all.

Looks like the Scandis and the Finns need to go on vacation in Germany to buy a Switch 2. Is 470 here (510 with MK).

I'm seriously considering it. Or ordering one from there. Not sure how much the shipping would be though. But surely not 150€.
I guess what might be a bother is warranty repairs etc.

Must be nice to talk politics from the comfort of you parents basement. Vietnam just agreed to zero tarriffs. What's the excuse now? Could it be that Nintendo is greedy as hell?

Semi ignorant question, is the Nintendo power supply able to deal with different voltages from around the world, and all you need is the appropriate plug adapter to fit your socket?

Definitely not a problem within EU, don't know about the rest of the world, but I would bet it handles anything fine and you just need an adapter.

So I got an email from Nintendo about pre-ordering it directly from them - I guess cause my playtime and NSO membership? Since it was an offer directly from Nintendo of Europe I got the bundle for €509, I couldn't believe it, that they let me order - but sure enough no problem shipping to Sweden and I got a unit too. So look your inboxes Scandibros.

Yeah it's daytime robbery here in Sweden. Fucking Bergsala, greedy cunts. But that's why I was surprised at Nintendo of Europe even offering me to pre-order from them, wouldn't think they wanted to undercut their Scandinavian distributor.That's insane. A base Switch2 in Ireland is €460, €160 price difference

I haven't been playing my Switch much after TOTK, and also cancelled my membership, so I'm pretty sure I'm out.

Hopefully Nintendo sees that their greed hurts adoption and throws them to the wayside.We need to burn Bergsala to the ground!
Honestly it has nothing to do with tariffs. This is all due to the greed of the distributor. We got taxes, but with that counted for with the European price it shouldn't be nowhere near the €180 price hike we get compared to central Europe.

Unelected bureaucrats making terrible policy decisions to over-regulate an entire continent. Is that a good enough description of the EU?

You were talking about the Nordics having our own "terrible tariffs" (very Trumpy of you). That's not how it works.

Im joking about it. Because these are the times we live in. But I need to add an emote when I am joking about Tariffs. That will make the jokes tariffic.

Alright then, all good!
But yeah no, this is all about Bergsala (the Nordic distributor) having a monopoly and using it to fuck us over.

Nordic countries still have different taxations, it's not unified.

We don't have separate import tariffs from the rest of the EU.
Yes, we have higher VAT than the EU average, and a chemical tax, but none of that even comes close to explaining the price difference. There is no explanation except greed.

The only time nintendo console was flying off the shelves in poland was early 90s pirated NES called Pegasus(which was legal and even had ads in nation wide tv channels), it was obviously super cheap( maybe like 20-30$ or so) and it had pirated cartridges that were like 1-2$ each
Here u got actual tv ad of that beauty, it had many models/versions and basically every kid had it, since every1 was poor at that time here(with super rare exception of kids of politicans/ceo of banks/big companies or carrier criminals(like mafia lool- u could tell those mafia family kids were rich coz they could afford original nike/adidas/puma/reebok tracksuits/shoes etc, every other normal, so poor kid was wearing fakes coz they were so much cheaper), but thats like 0,1%, over 99% of families were crazy poor late 80s/early 90s:

Yeah, I just worry about warranty stuff. It's much nicer to just be able to go to the store and hand in your broken Joycon than having to send it to another country.
