That literally is cheaper
The difference is so big they had to bring back region locking to prevent scalpers from buying all of them up to sell abroad.
At least it sounds like the more expensive international version will be fully region-unlocked, like the original Switch.

even the multi-language/region SKU is a hair under 70k, so it’s still a p good deal next to gacha hard pity

A new Switch Ridge Racer would’ve been fun. The version in the video looks super early though; the player can’t even drift yet??
maybe, but also maybe the person recording the leaked footage might not know how to drift
the UI is definitely pretty far along, it even has the delta times for checkpoints already set up

welcome to Canada prices for the last generation lol
also why my switch experience involved precisely zero third party accessories, I even used a USB dongle that was known to have a compatible chipset instead of the official dock

I wonder if all those ROG Ally compact docks I stocked up on would work with it, or if it needs that fan or something.
Also wonder if 8Bitdo and others are gonna rush to provide cheaper controllers…well, if they can, what with tariffs and such.

I want to buy this console for some reason but I wish I could look into the future and see if the university that employs me will still exist in 4 months.

we are only going to see a mass movement w/r/t games if the GOP gets to the “ban/limit video games” line item from Project 2025
I mean, it’s not like they’re burning political goodwill at an unprecedented rate and would make stupid or desperate plays in their final gasps of power

A lot of those Wisdom Tree games got PC ports, that’s all the good people of the USA need.

after further* inquiry, i have determined that prophecies relating to the “end of the world” were actually originally meant to refer to the “end of mario kart world”
gotta get our precious hours of kart racing in before the eschaton is immanentized
