This price hike is confusing to me because I was told it was sustainable in it's state prior to the hike?
Why are you defending the hike?
People are just saying the addition of more games doesn't justify the hike. Same would apply to Netflix and the like too. The whole appeal of these services in the first place was being able to have access to a collection for a low monthly fee. That is slowly but surely no longer becoming the case. Doesn't matter how many games you have access to if you can't afford the monthly price.
This price increase is not surprisin...
Yeah, I never understood the whole creating "artificial demand' talk people always bring up. You can only produce so much at launch. You expect Nintendo to have 10-20 million consoles at the ready at launch?
Looks good, but free to play.......
"No. He is implying that the first price increase was for the tariffs and the latest round is just using the tariffs as an excuse to jack up the price again."
They are raising it because of tariffs. Raising it just because doesn't benefit them at all. Less people buy your system, you get bad press for raising it a second time, etc.
Price only went up in the US. It's Mr. "Freedom of Speech for only those I after with" 's fau...
Anyone not blaming Tariffs are exactly why this situation will not get better for the next 8 years at least
Imagine defending Trump after all the BS that he has done in 8 months 😂
3 more years of this garbage because of blind worshipers like you 🫵
Yes it is tariffs.
Why are people saying that it's not because of tariffs? This is the first generation that prices have increased over time, 1st due to pandemic inflation and 2nd due to Trumptard tariffs.
Oh boy, people are going to be in for a rude awaking when they see the price for the next Xbox and PS6. Expect $600 PS3 levels that everyone whined about.
$750 looking cheap now
"Instead, non-console efforts have been folded into the broader Platform Business strategy under the goal of ‘continued expansion of user base and multi-device ecosystem.’ The language suggests that Sony still sees value in reaching players beyond PlayStation hardware, but the decision to no longer track ‘Game Revenue Beyond Console’ as a strategically emphasized indicator raises questions about how aggressively the company intends to pursue that growth.
On one hand, t...
Um no. The whole purpose of usb c is that we shouldn't have to care too much which cable we use. This is no different than Apple's BS in the past.
According to Nintendo I can't use the USB C that came with my phone because it's not licensed. That is asinine.
Thank you someone with common sense.

Yeah, having a gun does not prevent someone from shooting you. If we both have guns and I want to shoot you, there's is nothing you can do unless you know of the precise moment of when I'm going to do it and you thereby get the jump on me before I do.
People owning guns can be a deterrent and prevent further damage, but won't stop shootings from happening the first place. Also the argument that it will result something else doesn'...
"the 2nd cannot hold up anymore in today's or a future society."
Yep, the moment automatic guns were invented it should have been banned. The guns we have today did not exist when the 2nd amendment was written. No way the 2nd amendment exists if these weapons were available back then.
Government is doing whatever the f they want right now. Can't complain about gun violence when you are willing to allow anyone to go into a Walmart and buy a gun...

How? 6, 7, 8, and 10 get all love. 9 is almost always an after thought and is usually only ever brought up by those that feel it's often overlooked.
Keep fighting the good fight.
But but I will be rich one day so I will want to take advantage of those tax breaks when that day comes! So I supports these moves made by our great President!

I guess we shouldn't complain about anything since millions still buy it I guess. You've been very critical of Sony throughout your time on N4G despite millions still seeing value in it... And oh, this gen sucks? Welp boy do I have news for you: millions still see value in it...
