Good question, and the CDN dollar has gone up

Barely. We're still in that 70 cent range.

Still, a switch in canada at the new increased price is still cheaper than the american increased price (oled for example: up from, 450 cad to 490 CAD = 355 USD, vs their new 400 USD price (550 CAD))

Price increase for your console from the previous gen is unprecedented right?

People though sony and ms were crazy for rasiing ps5/xbs prices, but nintendo out did them by doing the switch 1.

Both Microsoft and Sony has increased the prices of their consoles since their release, it's not a Nintendo issue.

Price increase on switch 2 is inevitable imo.

$400 for a Switch OLED is retardation beyond imagination.

 

[Deerock71]

These prices are friggin insane.

Time to recognize all prices and insane. Nip it in the bud.

People will keep buying them so why not?

This really is a sad fucking joke. $100 for joy cons. I wish Nintendo would get a wake up call.

Why? They are selling more than ever and everybody is celebrating their (very mid) current output.

Gamers need a wake up call, not Nintendo

I'd buy an OLED to use as a dedicated handheld if they'd slash the price in half.

They did last week, their hardware and software sell like hotcakes.

The truth is Nintendo knows the gaming market is stagnant and not growing. They just keep eating the same customer user base. They probably know they can't take much more of Sonys install base. They are betting that switch 1 users will convert.

General practice in electricity vs solar or gas vs electric or whatever industry. Bleed your loyal customers dry by increasing prices. Look at gamepass or psn same shit.

Switch may not even outsell DS.
