Message: [QUOTE="PittoP, post: 166439, member: 20892"] People are defending the prices saying that's because of inflation and that old consoles would cost the same, if not more, nowadays, but they tend to forget that our paychecks didn't go up as well. Well, to be fair, I'm still a student; I was jobless in 2017 and I'm jobless in 2025. The console itself isn't the biggest problem lmo (despite 470 euros being still a bit high), it's that everything else related to the console either has unreasonable prices or it's surrounded by anti-consumer choices. One of the new gimmicks of the console, which is a basic video chat (running at roughly 9fps in the video presentation), is blocked behind a paid subscription; digital games are 70/80 euros, and physical ones are even higher despite some of them not even having the full game on the cartridge; accessories for the console have even higher prices than the last generation; and lastly, Nintendo decided to launch the Switch 2 with many titles from the Switch with small updated. Paid updates, to be precise. Surely they'll release a lot of new titles as well, but I'm growing tired of having the same game launched two or even three times on three different consoles with "new content" at full price; I'm starting to understand how Wii/Wii U owners felt. Yeah anyway I'm still playing on my Vita. [automerge]1744033693[/automerge] Apparently it's not. The official camera from the site is 60 euros/dollars/whatever [/QUOTE]
