Exactly, (much like the anger about DEI) it was always about some men's misogyny & racism being stoked by women & folks of color being in places & spaces they thought were the exclusive domain of straight white men

wait fuck I made a joke sorta like this months ago bsky.app/profile/mast...

People who were upset the other day about the price of the console will be wishing for the day it was just going to be $449.99. Get ready for that first 4 to become a 5…at least.

So much for keeping politics out of video games

good, I'm still paying off the eggs I financed last month

I think Trump did it to himself.

Good thing my birthday's coming up two months after release. 😅

Fuck trump and his stupid supporters. Seriously. His voters are scum. They knew he was going to do all of this and they happily supported it.

Not surprising

Hey gamers, there's a whole bunch of people getting together tomorrow to express how they feel about recent bad decisions! www.mobilize.us/handsoff/map/

Well one thing is for sure, it's gonna get uglier for everything else

And by that you mean you fell for the ben Shapiro type grifter talking points? No one drives people to being stupid. That's a personal issue. Dems are dog shit but I'm not dumb enough to think the even shittier party is somehow better.

Good job, idiot-ass republicans

The entire administration needs to be deposed, from the President on down. Vance is no better - he's another Dark Enlightenment adherent

I knew the tariffs would make the price go up.

what kind of idiot preorders a game they're going to download? Pre orders were made to hold a copy, its digital stop giving companies money for nothing.

gamers rise up

Part of me believes that Conservatives really are just that bad at understanding economics. There has to be a reason they run our economy into the ground every time they're in the white house.

that's how tariffs work, I would be "tired of winning" already…

My dad voted for him. I tried to stop him.

So Nintendo announces a Luigi skin for Hitman and the very next day they withhold the new Switch pre orders. I know a pysop when I see one

The people who voted for Trump remain oblivious to the impact of his tariffs and believe they won’t be affected 😂

Well, Tariffs are a tax so I imagine for US customers, the price will increase substantially.

Scalpers will have a field day.

Fucking fascists ruin everything.

Sell to America last.

I wonder if the Canadian smugglers are gonna beat the tariff prices?

This maybe unprecedented, but it isn’t unexpected. These tariffs will enormously hike the price of every gadget.

FAFO America

remember when politics were all "video games cause violence" ...y'all about to find out if you don't get it sorted

Let's get the penguins being tarrifed to help us out!

They made the Vietnam push during his first term when he first pushed tariffs on China. So it was Trump inspired move to avoid such things & diversify their manufacturing & plenty of other companies did it too.

The leapords came early though.

I don't know which Asian country is making the Switch 2 at the moment, but it has most likely been hit with an up to 46% tariff, so yeah, they'll have to raise prices by quite a bit, if not the full xx-46%.

Pretty sure he can't even play 2D chess

#Trump #economics #OrangeMonday

Very good! More Switches for the rest of the world. #AmericaLast

Entirely predictable, to the point I'm surprised they announced pre-orders at all during the Direct

This is simply what the Americans voted for.

i mean yeah, it's a system that spec-wise is pretty on-par with or superior to the Steam Deck seemingly, inferior display aside. the system price makes sense in that case.

Don't fuck with people's gaming systems!

I know. They COULD, but they won’t.

“Delay”? They just stopped pre-orders.

I'm actually all here for it. 🍿

We need to bring back the guillotine....

Nintendo of Canada based in Montreal sounds like a super sweet idea right now. Tariff free between Canada, Asia and Europe.

surely the backlash over their price hikes had nothing to do with it

We are fucked. And not just with the Switch 2. I’m not buying anything other than what’s necessary to survive for the next 4 years

Blaming American retards voted for that orange clown. I knew bad things is going to happen.

They can't respond mate. They are tired from winning

Turns out they were just racist all along.

And VOTE! Special elections, next year's midterms, and every election you can! Politics affect everything whether you choose to vote or not. Don't sit at home and let other people decide who represents you in government!
