I’m sorry, but I can’t assist with that.
There’s no other way to say it but that it was the result chosen by the American people.
Make hard products made in the USA.
Jaguar 2 or something.
Isn’t all of Nintendo’s plans built on the premise of yen depreciation and inflation blown away…?
If we proceed straightforwardly with the current tax rate, it would be the Japanese version, I suppose…
Those who are saying to lower the prices will probably go crazier, and they are the type who wouldn’t understand even if explained, so it might be better to just enjoy watching them flail around.
>>6
Nintendo is also in a situation where it’s not the time to be buying games.
There is pressure to cut prices just to pass on the costs of tariffs…
>>6
I’m honestly feeling like “serves them right” for the people who vandalized the treehouse.
It might increase by about 50% from the selling price over there…
>>7
Trump said he wouldn’t allow price increases due to tariffs, right?
>>11
Well then, should I stop selling it?
>>11
You’re saying something outrageous…
>>11
Don’t be so spoiled…
I hate to say it, but America shouldn’t be playing games right now.
>>8
Make young people addicted to games and cure them of drug addiction.
The timing is bad.
I don’t really understand.
Is it possible that people from abroad can save money by coming to Japan to buy things and take them back?
>>10
The American customs might be hell-bent on confiscating it.
>>10
In Japan, it will be available for a while through a lottery sale.
That also means playing on the original Switch for a certain amount of time in the past.
(Since the aggregation date has already passed, playing around after the announcement is pointless.)
Moreover, applications can only be submitted from accounts that had registered online in advance.
Additionally, the other language versions with language packages in languages other than Japanese are about 10,000 yen more expensive, so the price advantage is also minimal.
>>15
It’s only at the Nintendo Store, right?
>>15
I don’t know if you’re misunderstanding or doing it on purpose, but that’s only the case when buying from the Nintendo Store.
>>94
Moreover, there are various mistakes in the conditions…
>>10
The ones sold in Japan can only play Japanese software…
>>19
The geek over there will probably patch it and unlock it…
>>19
There are still some people who misunderstand this, but it’s not region-locked, so you can use North American version software.
>>97
So does that mean there’s a possibility that the Japanese Switch 2 could be bought up by foreigners?
>>107
At least, to buy from the Nintendo Store, you need a Japanese address, and for electronics retailers, online shopping probably requires a Japanese address too, so I think it’s difficult.
>>107
Serious gamers in China have been playing the Japanese version all along.
It will leak to some extent.
>>141
I can’t turn 100 into 0, but…
I hope I can do it by around 50…
>>141
It’s fine as long as you’re not a gamer.
It would be fine if the scum looking to resell just died.
>>107
Only the cheaper Switch 2 with only Japanese language will be available in Japanese retail distribution.
The other language versions will only be sold at the official online store.
In addition, even if you bring it to China, the network-related features will not work.
>>10
Even if I try to buy a multilingual version in Japan, it’s only available for online purchase, so I can’t buy it in stores…
>>10
In-store sales are only available for the Japan exclusive version, so I have to work hard on learning Japanese.
But they’re saying that even if stock prices drop, the economy will improve…
There are people who don’t know that they’re asking to lower the prices due to customs duties…
>>16
Even if I ask for it, I’ll be ignored.
>>45
Nintendo should hint at withdrawing from America.
>>58
You’ll be harassed to the point where Elon buys your stocks and takes over.
>>128
I can’t buy it.
>>128
How?
>>128
The phrase “buying stocks” conveys a sense that you don’t understand stocks at all, even by 1mm.
Seriously, it must be a headache for Nintendo America since it’s the country they want to earn the most from.
Why not play on the Mega Drive like a Brazilian?
Isn’t it better not to sell it in America?
>>24
Forty percent of Nintendo’s sales are from the United States…
Even if I come to Japan, the multilingual version probably won’t be on the shelves until things calm down or the plans change.
How about reducing the amount we’re sending to America and using that to send it to Mexico and Canada while employing some tricks?
Since there is a U.S. corporation, can’t we do something about it?
The tariff effects haven’t been activated yet, and it’s a delay for observation, right?
Why not just release a North American version that can’t play with people from other countries?
Despite my efforts to lower the price, the foreigners keep saying to lower it even more.
It’s laughable that there’s a possibility it might actually become more expensive due to tariffs.
The American government should just provide subsidies.
If you sell at the original price, you’ll just end up in the red.
For now, it’s just a postponement of reservations, but it seems that a sales delay in the U.S. may eventually become inevitable.
Typically, taxes in that country are just added to the price and that’s it.
If Trump does that, there will be sanctions! That’s what they’re saying…
Announcing prices grandly six hours before the mutual tariffs and retracting them three days later? That’s extremely bad luck.
The rise of the yen and the decline in stock prices are advancing, leading to a downturn in the economy and inbound tourism, causing an oversupply of both foreign language versions and domestic versions in Japan, which might be pleasing for users.
For Nintendo, it might really be a nightmare…
It’s too naive to think that we can impose tariffs but not raise prices…
>>36
I thought it was amazing that a president can get away with saying such ridiculous things.
>>36
It can’t be helped; the president is someone who says there was a panic when tariffs were imposed.
The financial results for Q1 2025 are going to be disastrous, aren’t they?
The announcement of customs duties coincided almost exactly with Japan’s reverse pricing, causing a lot of confusion with the prices, which was really frustrating…
This has nothing to do with me.
The sales are double that of Japan in America.
If you discard it, it’s over.
Peripheral devices and package versions are also subject to tax, so it’s really crazy.
What a remarkable era it has become.
In other words, if I master Japanese, buy the console in Japan, and import the Japanese ROM, I can play it even in America?
>>46
It may not start if taken outside of Japan due to region lock.
>>53
How do I…?
>>59
Region lock.
>>53
Isn’t region lock something different…?
Tariffs are essentially a story about Trump skimming money from the wallets of Americans.
In other words, it would be good to say that the retail price is set really high in America without adding the tariff costs.
“Nintendo’s futures -6%…”
The postponement of the reservation is effective, isn’t it?
What’s frustrating is that even if we decide to transition slowly, changing plans means we’ll still incur tariffs on the newly imported old Switch units.
It’s beyond a level that corporations can handle.
I wonder if it’s the kind of approach where you first say something outrageous and then get them to compromise in negotiations… It might erode trust, though.
The current young generation in America seems like they will mostly have to buy Switch2 using installment payments if the price rises any further.
Nintendo seems to be thinking about kids in America.
I think they might keep the price unchanged even if tariffs are applied.
Because in four years, Trump will no longer be here…
>>60
If you do that, it will result in a reverse margin, and not just in Japan, but if it happens in America as well, it will lead to a huge deficit.
>>60
And four years later, Vance will…
If I’m going to be doomed anyway, I guess it doesn’t matter if crazy people throw a “no” at me.
It would be great if you learned Japanese and lived in Japan.
Despite the fact that they finally announced the details of Switch2 and NV confidently stated that it is being used by us again, it seems that Trump’s power was stronger…
94 yen.
The issue of prices is causing a massive uproar worldwide, and if the tariffs here increase as a double punch, it would be serious.
In America, you might explode.
It’s normal for products made in the United States to have parts manufactured overseas, but they don’t seem to think about anything.
>>66
The person who thought that tariffs are something foreign companies pay to the United States when exporting to America is now the president.
“We will raise tariffs, but you’re not allowed to raise prices accordingly! Only a country that thinks of its trade partner as a colony would come up with something like that.”
>>68
This is completely the language of an occupying country, isn’t it?
>>68
Do you say the same to your own country’s companies?
I’m also troubled by this, so make it suffer!!!!!!
I think the honest feeling is that I don’t want to stand out by being the first to change the price!
There are only two months left until the launch.
At first, I think it would be difficult even just for Japan and Europe to keep up with production.
I never imagined that it would be released in a situation tougher than the COVID-19 pandemic, even with this wisdom of mine.
>>73
The coronavirus has disrupted the supply chain, so it’s not at this level! Have you already forgotten?! (We will assume Trump’s future policies are not to be considered.)
If you sell without adjusting the price to avoid sanctions on Trump, no matter how much you sell, it will result in a loss.
If we stop selling only in the United States, we will completely lose the users we have built up in the U.S. market.
Anyway, a blonde white pig.
The pattern of Nintendo hardware succeeding and then failing seems likely to repeat this time as well.
Well, if it’s Trump, he probably would just say to buy an Xbox and a Steam Deck.
>>77
Those are also produced overseas, so they are subject to tariffs…
The assembly of Switch2 in China faces a 67% tariff… Nintendo certainly picked a tough timing.
The prices are so different that I can’t grasp the sense of prices in the U.S.
It’s frustrating to see Nintendo, which has been supportive of Japanese users, suffer like this, but there’s nothing I can do…
Drop dead, USA!
Well, in reality, I think there won’t be a time for playing games…
Well, Americans will buy even if they go into debt.
Just like how Japanese people were buying expensive iPhones even with the weak yen.
They should impose strict tariffs and let the people revolt.
Nintendo’s main factory is in Vietnam now, right?
It’s the worst because it’s 46%.
I wonder which is better, selling while running a deficit or not selling at all.
Since switch2 is a hardware guaranteed to succeed, they should make money through licensing and sell the main unit very cheaply!
>>93
In the current situation, we’re talking about a hard path that guarantees failure, but do you have no brains?
>>93
To succeed Switch2, we must surpass the great Switch…
Well, even if it’s priced higher only in America, it should still sell normally.
>>95
Trump is going to talk about sanctions.
>>101
So?
>>101
By the way, what happens when we talk about sanctions?
What will happen that makes it not the time to be playing games…?
“Don’t play games, just smoke marijuana.”
If we can pull Trump down right now, there might be a chance.
By the way, make sure to take down Vance too.
Well, I don’t think it’s a laughing matter for Japan either; there might be a price increase in Japan to eliminate the deficit in the U.S.
>>103
Decent companies determine their strategy based on the country they are selling to and do not cover losses with profits from other countries…
>>103
I don’t need America, being spat on feels more realistic.
>>119
The market is too large to throw it away.
>>127
China: “I think so too.” Situations like that are funny.
>>127
The Japanese version will be raised! It means there’s no way that’s going to happen…
>>144
In that case, it’s lacking in words.
Shall we stir up a riot by hinting at cancellation?
I don’t understand.
We are bewildered by the actions of the old man who is immersed in memories of the 80s.
>>105
White House response
Is it acceptable if we set up a production facility in America?
nVidia’s stock had somehow managed to stay above 100 yen, but the tariffs have broken through the support, and it’s in a situation where it can’t stop.
Nintendo is crashing in after-hours trading, and it looks like this might derail things on Monday…
>>110
Speaking of which, there have been too many incidents involving people in Tokyo lately. Enough already.
>>110
Owning Nintendo stock is just a hobby, you know.
>>125
In the first place, since the decline is already confirmed, if you’re betting your life on stock trading, then it’s already the timing to take profits, right?
It’s impossible not to pass on even a single penny of the price increase, so in the end, everyone will raise their prices.
The first batter is definitely going to get beaten up, so nobody wants to do it.
If you think that a strong America will be revived by doing this,
It’s really unbelievable!
There’s fake news saying that the price difference is due to Tora-san.
I never would have imagined that this would be more senile than Biden, even with my discerning eye.
I can’t supply to a market that only goes further into the red the more it sells.
The timing was so off that it was terrible; what could I have done?
Also, Trump is saying that there will be additional tariffs on semiconductor products, so I wonder what will happen…
You could just buy it in Canada, right?
If we send it all over to Canada and Mexico
Don’t just take it without permission, Americans.
If you say “Don’t raise prices, or I’ll impose sanctions!”
There’s no way that all imported goods won’t see a price increase; that kind of dream-like story just isn’t realistic…
Once it starts to rise, it will probably avalanche up…
>>132
No one wants to be the first penguin.
>>149
Understood.
It was the right decision to impose sanctions on the uninhabited island that only has penguins.
It looks happy, but the reality is that it’s a big hit in the summer, so please live strongly.
That’s why imported Switch consoles are circulating through the underground route…
Well, the timing is definitely bad.
If we assume that there were no Trump tariffs and compare it to the sales then…
It’s not about what fraction of real sales it will become.
No joke, Trump is doing crazy things on a daily basis, so it would be better if something could be done about it…
This is a development that is quite unfavorable for Nintendo as it slows down their overseas expansion.
Why does it overlap with the release announcement?
Isn’t it too painful that it won’t sell in either China or America?
Trump is saying not to raise prices! It’s about domestic prices.
In theory, it is possible to raise prices outside of America to make up for it!
I won’t do it, but…
The US and Chinese markets are no good, so we have to do our best in Europe!
>>146
In reality, Europe is clapping and celebrating, after all.
What’s terrible is that everything is caused by that damned old man’s nonsense.
I can only think of it as a disaster when it comes to the price.
Even in a place like this, I can’t help but think it’s truly committed to going bald.
Ah, I see.
Are foreigners flying in just to buy a regular Japanese Switch?
If anything, reselling it could lead to quite a profit, don’t you think?
It just happened to be the worst timing, so it’s being singled out, but isn’t almost every industry in trouble?
>>154
That’s exactly the automotive industry…
Don’t impose tariffs on your own and then raise prices! Are you okay in the head…?
The U.S. will postpone the release until Trump lowers tariffs.
The prices are undecided due to the weak yen.
Isn’t it just unlucky to announce this after all this time?
It’s not like a 50,000 yen product becomes 1,000,000 yen or anything.
Hmm, that’s a bit expensive.
From any perspective, it’s clearly going to be America that dies first, so in about 1 to 2 months, I might say something like that or about eliminating tariffs.
I want to believe that.
>>164
But if we do this, it will become a country that won’t be trusted at all for four years.
>>178
It’s like I’m trusted now, isn’t it?
>>178
It’s a minor issue since trust is being lost all over the world.
It feels like we were finally able to release it after extending the life of the old Switch due to COVID-19, but it can only be described as bad luck.
It’s funny how the current Trump and the ridiculously old dude from the big river are making the same moves.
I lack problem-solving ability, but I assert that it should be solved this way.
All hardware will likely be subject to heavy tariffs, so Americans will have to hold off on games for a while.
But now, with this, overseas products will no longer be unfairly cheap and will stand on the same foundation as American-made products, avoiding exploitation.
Originally, there are no alternatives made in America? Well, that’s true.
I’m worried about the financial results for the April to June period.
Until the Switch 2 comes out, there will be a slowdown in buying the Switch, and there aren’t any decent games.
Even if the main unit of Switch2 sells like crazy, the Japanese version will likely be a loss, and in America, profits will be eaten up by tariffs, so what will happen?
Since the supply won’t keep up at first anyway.
We have no choice but to increase the allocation for Japan and Europe.
Reality is right in front of you.
It’s a Trump tariff.
I’m looking forward to someone boldly saying they’ve bought a smuggled version at the price with the customs duties added on.
Why do both the North American market and the Chinese market have to be so disrupted by Masaharu?
Oh no, I realized it overlaps with Trump! I should have shifted it as soon as I found out.
The announcement has a large-scale promotion planned every day, so there’s nothing we can do this time.
This isn’t just a problem for Nintendo, it’s also a damage to Sony and MS, right?
>>182
Why?
>>182
Nintendo was close to the timing, and not only the gaming industry but every industry is really angry.
>>182
The ones who already have enough of the main body will just stop growing at that point…
Nintendo hasn’t done anything wrong, but this really won’t sell in America…
It’s not that we’re never going to sell it in America from now on!
While observing trends in tariffs and the economy, we will continue to postpone the examination.
I think it would be good to release it when we feel we can put it out.
It’s tough not being able to make a strong start, but I don’t think things will always stay the same.
Well, I don’t think it will lose to the PS5, so it should be fine.
I was told it was no good for ChatGPT to decide tariffs.
It seems that you want switch2 to die, but I would like you to understand that everything equally dies.
No company has been unaffected by damage, right?
It’s not just about Nintendo.
Why is Gah appearing in such a backwater thread?
