The price in America makes sense because of inflation and Trump's dumbass tariffs.

Europe is getting fucked though.

Europe is probably getting fucked because of the USA, so that games and consoles aren't scalped and resold to the USA bypassing the tariffs and profiting off the difference.

Since the tariffs were higher than expected Nintendo has paused preorders in the USA, let's hope this means they understand they can't raise the global price even more and just disentangle it from the USA's.

Well the tariffs on Vietnam where the console is made are the most outrageous. They will likely increase the price of the console in the US but tariffs on Japan aren't nearly as high and the high prices there will likely stick internationally.
