That news the past hour

"AIEEEEEEE THE ECONOMY IS FUCKING RUINED!!!"

the economy in question:

It was suspended because of a circuit breaker going out, keep up.

Yeah and it's only about to get worse. Nintendo fucked up by cancelling preorders in the United States. What a retarded move.

I know?
...were you under the impression that "circuit breaker" in this context refers to electrical wiring?

"AIIIIEEEE THE POWER WENT OUT OUR ECONOMY IS RUINED"

Maybe it wasn't such a good idea to drag out the Switch 1's lifespan for another year and a half just to milk it even further, huh?
Nintendo always gets bitten in the ass when they're on top and get cocky because of it. It literally never fails to happen. It's incredible.

Holy fuck it's literally over for Nintendo... Maybe next time the most powerful nation on earth says

Operate in the United States

You don't try to fuck around by moving to some other 3rd world shithole nation to save a few dollars.

Nintendo's going to end up moving the stock intended for the US to the rest of the world huh.

anon...

Japan is tanking, worldwide recession happening boys

Switch 2 is literally dead in the water if the abandon the US market
Japan is going through a recession this very moment too and their market isn't enough to sustain that console

I don't feel so good
I know, I was joking about that anon thinking it was electrical wiring

I've never seen any other corporation on earth do this. You'd figure after the virtual boy, 3ds, wii u that they'd learn. Maybe they should go homeless and get out of the space. They clearly have no idea how to run a company.

Just here to remind y’all the tariffs are completely made up by an AI and enacted by a senile old man

That's Nintendo of America, nikkei is Nintendo of Japan. Keep watch over the next few days. It's about to crash hard.

If they have to mark up even more to break even as much as the math shows they might, they aren't going to sell consoles either.

So either they sell consoles at an incredible loss, or mark them up and don't sell anything.

At that point why even bother trying?

Hmmm yeah that actually sounds likely. I'm not a logistics guy, I imagine most of their switch 2s are in warehouses, I'm not sure how many might be in NA (which would be exempt from the tariffs) or in Asia waiting to be shipped (which would be subject to tariffs). I'd guess it's largely the latter, in which case it might make sense to allocate less supply for the US initially and hope the trade situation improves.

It had no chance to begin with, it's basically over. "Switch 2" even rhymes with "Wii-U." Not sure what they were thinking with that one!

Nintendo moved production to a country with the highest tariff on american imports in all the world and expected trump to sit idle? Fuck off and die.

So are the posts in these threads.

It's about to

It's down 7% today

They were better when they were run by gamers and not businessmen. RIP Iwata.

at what point was japan not getting fucked since the 90's?

Just move to the American factories that don't exist, goy. A little bit a chicken fry, cold beer on a Friday night.

No, lower the price

the tariffs are completely made up by an AI and enacted by a senile old man

tyo 7974 IS NCL though

if it's just a power outage, whew, if not, it won't matter, it'll crash to $0.00 because it's backed by Nikkei. This is what happens when you cancel your next flagship in America. Nintendo fucked around because of their pride. They're in the find out stage. Next the the most powerful man in the world says jump, you jump. You don't try playing games to circumvent what he says to do.

I wonder how Nippon Steel feels about all this. I wonder if they will pull the deal.

I know I can just boycott the US to support local businesses, but how can I support Japan? I would think any fan of anything ever would be vested in their survival.

god I hope so playstation can reign supreme until sega comes back with basedcast2

What about the one trillion they planned on investing into an Alaskan LNG pipeline?
Would be a damn shame if they pulled the offer and gave it to China or Canada.

They exist. Intel and amd seem to be doing fine. They didn't even make an attempt. They could have easily bypassed the tarriffs by staying in china for now and signing a contract to build in America. They didn't do this. They went to our enemies and signed contracts with them instead. Fuck you and the horse you rode in on. Die for all I care.

These videos never fail to make me seethe. It is ragebait of the finest quality.

Oh no, not the stock market!
To be fair, the LDP is more sensible than the GOP so I doubt they'll let things get too extremely bad

Nintendo fucked up by delaying pre-orders to see if Trump didn't just come to his senses and renege on his retarded tariffs

The stock market is not real and has never been real.

like a year ago Anon Babble was shitting their pants that Japan's economy was tanking

bounced back a few days later

now

When will this charade end?

Sega is working on the steam deck 2. Sega Teradeck.

Yes. The next time the most powerful man in the world says to do something, you fucking listen and do what he tells you.

Operate in the United States

no we won't bring our labor costs down

no we won't help you offset the costs of building a factory

Intel makes chips in the US

suddenly the 13th and 14th gen chips have critical physical build and firmware issues for the first time in decades

AMD = TSMC = Mostly in Taiwan retard

Fun fact: Trump’s Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick basically admitted the tariffs won’t actually bring back manufacturing jobs to the US, because manufacturing in the US is automated anyways

It works on no level. Lmao

China or Canada doesn't protect them with their military.

/leftypol/ stonkfag trannies seething.

You will own nothing and be GRATEFUL

Doesn't nintendo have billions of dollars? They can afford to build factories

creates an overpriced toy with 100 dollar games that looks the same as the toy parents already bought their kid, just as the world falls into the worst depression since the 1930's

mama mia

They don't want to

Most americans only own debt.

Trump doesn't want to either.

Do you have any idea how long it would take to build a factory for that

I'm sure you're leaving out more info and context like most trannies do, so I'll just call you a faggot and move on. You lost btw.

I own only debt, so I'm making a slight profit off of all this.

If it was cheaper to build the factories in America they would have done it already. The product with the tariffs is probably still the same price as it would cost them to make it in the USA. So either way, shit will cost the same price to consumers. It does not make a difference to anyone besides the rich people who own the factories

i hate this fat faggot so much, he literally has a bunch of shitty funko pops behind him at all times. glad he's losing everything on his shitty coffee

Yeah and on top of it they make every retarded mistake based on pride.

Then fuck um

Factories literally cannot pop up over night. It can take 3 to 4 years to get a factory up and running.

If they started now, they might be down a quarter of the way through the Switch 2's lifespan.

The product with the tariffs is probably still the same price as it would cost them to make it in the USA

then they need to raise the tariffs

But Japan does.

Anon Babble thread

spambot

You are defending a trade policy based on entirely made up numbers. Trump is tariffing penguins and using an equation created by an AI. I think you should stop and reconsider what you’re defending.

Bowser needs to call trump and promise to put 10 billion dollars into a trust for the development of nintendo hardware factories in the US. Maybe then he will give them a break on the tariffs.

you are le leftist if you think the tariffs are a bad idea in the way they're being implemented

Americans are brain damaged.

can't tell the difference between Anon Babble and Anon Babble

The next time the most powerful man in the world says to do something, you fucking listen and do what he tells you.

Nigger, Nintendo and Apple and everyone else moved their production to Vietnam specifically because Trump seemed to have it out for China, that WAS them doing what Trump seemed to want.
Nobody expected him to put flat tariffs on every country on earth based on the retarded idea that a rich country having a deficit with a poor country was because of tariffs.
Like, Vietnam was considered the safe option because they were pretty friendly with even the past Trump administration and were suitably at least China-neutral enough to avoid being caught up in any trade-war between the US and the Middle Kingdom
Also

timeline

So if factories take 2-3 years to build, most companies would literally rather just wait until the next election cycle than start investing billions of their own cash into building a factory that would, ultimately, only be present to cater to the American market (given that goods coming out of America will be tariffed by reciprocal measures by every other country on Earth).

If the price of goods is that high it will sell less and make less money than just selling the stock in other countries. They simply just won't sell them in the US. How are people so fucking retarded at economics? It's literally common sense.

Drop the price? Raise the price?
More like, drop the product.

America just won't have computers unless you let chinese slave labor take over the entire market

unlikely

Yeah, that's not the United States. Next time listen. May this be a lesson to the world. May it strike fear into the heart of every man woman and child

I don't see how any of this is Anon Babble, since we can just pirate anything anyway.

Nigger there wont be shit to pirate, Nintendo is going out of business.

(given that goods coming out of America will be tariffed by reciprocal measures by every other country on Earth).

You could throw out there that the next President, if Trump's tariffs even last his entire term, could come in and dump all tariffs and throw in free trade for a certain amount of years to try and make amends to various American trade partners, then those factories could be used as a NA distribution hub, but I seriously doubt that will happen. It's just too much of a risk for 4 years when it is also possible that it plays out like you stated where you have American factories that can only sell to America.

It's really funny because it's ChatGPT assuming any geographic region with its own internet domain is a country (treat Gibraltar like its own nation lol)
It's funny because free-trade has been the high-raised banner of most administrations since WW2 and onwards, under both right-leaning and left-leaning administrations. Even when we did tariff things, it was selective to protect existing American industries. It's, despite what certain twitter retards claim, actually very hard to build or rebuild entire manufacturing capabilities using tariffs because the reality is that the Wealth the US has that makes it attractive to sell things to goes hand-in-hand with free-trade policy. We're only this rich because we actually make more money on international free-trade than we lose (despite what a cursory glance of trade deficits would say)

check news

japan market is cratering below 9%

yep its over

Nintendo is going out of business

delusional
you should ration your copium, it's not healthy to binge

Just a reminder that your Japanese toys cause Chinese people to kill themselves.

Computers are necessary, video game tablets are not

We're only this rich because we actually make more money on international free-trade than we lose

since free-trade absolutists took over real wages for americans has gone down every year.

Yeah, that's not the United States. Next time listen. May this be a lesson to the world. May it strike fear into the heart of every man woman and child

"If you don't invest billions into a factory to cater exclusively to the American market (resulting in more expensive goods even if they aren't tariffed due to American labor costs and the costs of raw materials) then we'll tariff you, no matter where on Earth you're importing from, even if it's from an America-aligned country"

Yes, who could foresee that a president would be this determined to plunge his nation and the rest of the world into a Global recession arbitrarily for the sake of 500 swing voters in the rust belt

It's simply non-viable. Estimates are that if Apple actually went through with it and moved their $1000 iphone to be fully US-made, it would become a $3500 iphone. Even with the tariffs, making most things in the US just doesn't make economic sense, shit costs too much.

How will MIGAfags cope without their inexpensive treats?

my view of the world is made up of social media ragebait

i unironically believe that most people shouldn't be on social media because they don't have the ability to filter out horseshit

How do i donate to the cause?

Notice how doomerfags always refuse to zoom out?

America won't have suicide nets. Be easier to replace unproductive employees if they just splat on the factory floor.

let's export jobs to places where they don't have human rights so it's cheaper to make them because children can work for 25 cents an hour

how do leftists defend the deafining moral cope?
globalism finds its foundation in the most extreme forms of exploitation and human suffering

One of the reasons that manufactoring even left places like America was because the ideal was that the jobs were seen as something below the American people at that time, so they were off shored to poorer countries where the labor was cheap which led to the products being sold for cheaper back in America.
Good fucking luck convincing generation Z that they want to go and become factory workers even if automaton plays a large role.

Keyword here is invest. Invest today, make money tomorrow. Better than losing 8263 points in a single day and going out of business.

Do you have any idea how long it takes to build factories? Especially factoring in all the red tape that we've done nothing to alleviate. By the time one of them is ready, the tariffs probably won't even be in place anymore. So no corporation is going to take the risk building any factories that they might not need. What they'll do is raise prices and wait out the tariffs.
Also, with how inconsistent this administration's messaging is on the tariffs depending on who's talking at any given time, I don't see how it's reassuring to anyone who would want to invest here.

if you dont worship trump you're a leftist

i hate miggers so much it's unreal

go to Anon Babble

open stock market thread

it's politics

I love how Nintendo picked the absolute worst time to launch their new system. Trump must be a sonychad.

don't worry just wait 10 years and everything might be fine

oh ok, dont worry guys just 10 years of poverty and everything will be probably fine afterwards

Those estimates are biased because they don't take into account that the whole tech manufacturing sector is going to be moved to america. That being said, manufacturing in america will be more expensive, but manufacturing costs are so low right now that doubling expenses would only have a small effect on the price of the finished goods.

if you're anti-globalist you're maga

you're certainly retarded

Yes but those are two distinct details that get conflated together. The opening of Free Trade started a bit earlier, right after the War, but the advent of wage stagnation came with the breaking of unions in the early 60s.
That's why the 50s are seen as such a halcyon of both lower prices and high income, because it was literally that. The union-breaking that happened about 10-15 years after WW2 ended was what brought on the end of real wage growth, whereas Free Trade actually started earlier as part of a plan to try to tether world peace to shared economic stakes

Capitalism is the problem, not globally integrated economies.

maybe if we pump infinity billion dollars into it we'll have a factory pop up overnight

What is this uniquely American mind-poison

fatman

Where is he? He's taking over Big Shell, isn't he?!

It's the Costco/Walmart mindset
We need more and more useless shit, in poorer quality, with human slavery behind it, just because it's the cheapest in bulk
That's the globalist mindset that needs to die

hurr it's like globalist and stuff

please go learn some basic economics instead of just parroting stupid shit you read on Anon Babble

If it takes you 10 years to 3d print a factory and put some robots in, you're bad at doing things.

Nyoooo $450dorrarydoo and we'll only make a small margin not a big one because of le tariffs

$80 digital distribution videogames on closed purchasing ecosystem

Americans are dumb as fuck. see this retard

Bitch we can 3d print buildings within a month. Why do you suck at making things?

stop coping

And I'm supposed to feel even a shred of empathy for le heckin multibillion dollar that's the richest company in Japan why?

Naw. Back in the day manufacturing jobs were all unionized. People were able to buy homes and have families on single parent incomes from these jobs. They only became shitty as a means to compete with third world labor once they deregulated.

You also have to throw in we don't know how many of these corps are just paying lip service to Trump in order to make him happy. I believe Foxcon during Trump's first term made a promise of investment and building a factory in America, and 9 years later there is nothing.

Go out of business then bugman. I don't care. I don't need Nintendo. Next time we tell you to do something, listen and do it. We can have factories built within months. This is your own fault.

You should try learning about economics instead of relying on random retards on the internet for information. Start with adam smith.

This might be the most retarded post I've ever seen on Anon Babble. The US is by far the biggest market for the Switch, almost double the revenue of Japan. Yuropia is Snoytranny territory where they only buy the month installments of divegrass and divegrass sim. Without the US, the Switch would be a fraction of the success it is.

Coffee is going to be amazing. There is only one American state that can grow coffee and that is Hawaii, and there is no possible way for Hawaii to meet the demands of the entirety of America, and almost every fucking America is addicted to it.

Gen Z would be more than happy to have any fucking job that would actually take them, don't kid yourself; if something like the New Deal or other socialist enterprise came around that guaranteed a not-great, but productive and paying grunt job with some kind of of security, tens of thousands would line up, especially if the government doesn't care if you have a home address or not which would allow the homeless to get jobs. The kicker is America is completely foreign now to the idea of a "living wage" and has been ever since manufacturing left. Cheaper on the consumer end and cheaper on the company's end to outsource to offshores industry, but all relevant jobs and experience left American soil with it, as did the middle class.

If they sell at $450 now when they planned that before tariffs, they aren't making any margin, they're actively losing money for every Switch 2 sold in the US.

globalism and corporatism allows markets to undo progress on human rights
capitalism is a framework that has existed since the birth of civilization

cope and seethe, supply chains that involve shipping fruit from Venezuela to China to be packed, and from China to the United States to be sold involve at least three layers of waste, pollution, and human exploitation

Next time build in America like you were told.

No, again, that's just not true. You cannot build that much manufacturing capacity in a few months. That kind of thing takes years. And not just a few years, a decade MINIMUM.

Sure we can build you a house made of fucking paper and plaster-board within a month, that doesn't mean anything good will happen in it.

You say that like they're going to have a choice lmao

>go to Anon Babble

>open stock market thread

Do you really think that a factory is the same thing as a building a 3d printed house?

capitalism is a framework that has existed since the birth of civilization

I don't think the birth of civilization envisioned fucking golf courses being sustained in Arizona to the detriment of the locals' access to water and the detriment of the native wildlife, or for almost all rich fuckers' actual value being in real estate they're essentially hoarding and squatting on.

You are missing the point. The factories aren't going to be built overnight, but until we have a guarantee that they will be built with money on the table there is no reason to lift the tariffs.

YOU WOULDN'T DOWNLOAD A FACTORY

Elaborate

He's annoying but not wrong.
The first world economy is really fucking weird, thanks to trade you can buy endless cheap trinkets from chinks but ultimately it's all optional stuff you don't need. Meanwhile expenses you can't avoid like rent and health care soaks up your entire budget. There's no slack anywhere. Who playtested this garbage?

We 3d print buildings within just a few months. We figured it out. Just because you're stuck in old mindsets doesn't mean we didn't figure it out. You didn't bother asking. You wrongly assumed it would take a decade.

the fuck is nikkei?

I'm not talking about a building a house, i'm talking about building a factory and supply chains.

Switch 2 $350 in Japan, 100 dorrah moar because everywhere else

Wholesale cost for these things is probably under $200 for retailers to have their margin, even with the Vietnamese/jap tariffs on import based on that number the math works fine for the global launch price. Tendiesama just got greedy and walked into infinite negative PR about every aspect of this launch.

He'll be the first to squeal like the fucking pig he is when his not-actually-essential internet access is chopped off and he can't farm outrage clicks on Twitter anymore.

That's some magical thinking right there. All I'll say is good luck with that.

Scroll up bro and ctrl+f "recession"

holy woke and broke kek

Imagine you're the CEO of a company in Japan, would you rather

destroy all your manufacturing and move it to USA that will take a minimum of 5 years to start making shit that will still not sell because it'll be 3x as expensive for americans

or

eat the tariffs until the next democrat president gets elected that will just remove all the tariffs anyways and you won't have wasted 5000 trillion dollars.

midwit retard

Nintendo of Japan lost 8263 within a day of cancelling the pre-order in the United States.

Switch 2 approaching

AIIIIEEEEEE

TRUMP SAMA PLEASE SAVE ME

Why are doomers like this?

Nippon's version of Dow Jones

A recession has been in effect before the Switch 2 was even announced. So again I say, elaborate.

why are we blaming nintendo for not being fucking psychic and predicting enormous vietnamese tariffs and a japanese stock market freeze

Parroting phrases you learned on Anon Babble is not gonna help you.

I think it's one of those new gacha games

Just because some 3rd world niggers can't figure it out, doesn't mean we didn't. Sucks to suck, now suffer the consequences.

Do conservatives really want the average american life to be

work 14 hour shifts 7 days a week

come home and go back to sleep instantly

repeat until 90 and you die

OK
Google "japan stock market crash"

Conservatives are unironically arguing we should own nothing and be happy, the tariff announcements are tanking stocks worldwide, there will be a global recession

If Trump wanted tariffs he could’ve done it in a non-retarded way not just announce blanket tariffs based on made up numbers then demand everyone to comply with them within 1 week. In what reality does that make any logical sense at all

next election

lmao

There are people in this thread that are arguing that factories can easily be built in a few months with 3d printing.

by the recession

When the fuck are we not in a recession at this point? That word has become meaningless.

This is such a cute comment

yes, corporatism, corporate capture, and rent seeking are all evil and have each contributed to the degredation of capitalism as a framework
consider the fact that the federal reserve is the largest holder of mortgages on single-family homes in order to keep valuation high and sustain the stock market, banks, and private equity firms
the government has ossified and either refuses or is incapable of reforming property laws to facilitate the creation of new families

Trump said

Build in America

And instead they moved to Vietnam.

until the next democrat president gets elected

That's not happening for at least another 12 years, bud. Not with a 21% approval rating.

And switch manufacturing is being outsourced to a different country.

It could have worked if they got rid of the income tax, did anything to alleviate the red tape that makes it hard to build factories, put some thought into reasonable targeted tariffs, and focused only on the most essential kinds of manufacturing. Instead they put an immediate blanket tariff on the whole world based on some nonsensical formula they got from ChatGPT and had no plan beyond that to address the other challenges in reshoring manufacturing.
All this will accomplish is ensuring that Democrats win every election for the rest of our lifetimes after Trump causes the new Great Depression. Good luck ever getting public support again for the actual good parts of Trump's policies, like immigration restrictions, when this economic disaster is what they'll be grouped in with.

The first option is also shit because Trump is a schizo and he may change the tariffs at random so even if you move to America you may get fucked regardless

I've been watching Trump for the past decade and he has been the most sensible politician I've ever known, so this sudden bizarre and erratic behavior is shocking

Are you enjoying the show? Refill your popcorn, you'll love this next part.

Building in America is fucking retarded and these tariffs are Donald oinking about it while he loses his mind just like his father did before him.

next democrat president

There fucking won't be one. Their shit-tier popularity is tanking and I'd be shocked if they even last the "12 years" that has posted about. I bet those Faggotcrats are gonna sink even lower than 21 fucking percent.

part of the reason why manufacturing jobs are so shit is because we need to compete with desperate third worlds with no standards and no workers rights. cut them out of the equation and we can go back to the days where factory jobs paid enough to buy a house and support your family.

Plz god let someone nuke us

I don't think American's realize how completely and utterly fucked they are.

It's not sudden or erratic. Mother fucker, he said

Build in America

Vietnam isn't America.

Do you not see how fast shifts can happen? Canada is Canada, but Trump alone pretty much changed what looked like a conservative majority to a liberal majority in just a few months, despite how Canada felt about the liberals.

More entertaining than Tears of the Kingdom.

approval rating

lol

Wow it's literally nothing

muh tariffs based on made up numbers are gonna affect the stock market of made up value

AAAAAAAIIIIIIEEEEE THE WORLD IS LITERALLY ENDING YOU GOYS QUICK IMPORT MORE INDIANS GOGOGOGOGOGOGO

Seems like the only one getting fucked is Japanese companies refusing to build in America. Get fucked.

yeah just grow some vanilla in north dakota and 3d print some factories. god these libtards are so stupid, i cant wait to make $50 an hour working on an assembly line making nintendo switch 2s

he could’ve done it in a non-retarded way

Not really, because no one is going to build factories in the US when the whole project could get thrown out in 4 years. Long term planning isn't possible in a democracy. Not say the current tariffs aren't retarded but the result would be the same.

Dude Trump's own popularity is tanking because he lost his fucking marbles the moment he got back in the chair, read the data you cite

The Chad Warden speech needs a Trump AI cover

arent americans supposed to have multiple systems in place so a single senile BPD man doesnt get to do whatever the fuck he wants

checks and balances and whatnot

Start investing billions into a new factory for a single market because there's a chance this wacko will win the election again, even if the interim period has his own people getting closer and closer to the poverty line, with deteriorating public infrastructure and services

There's also one VERY big detail you're missing:
In the interim period of building that factory, there's a very good chance that MOST Americans who could afford these goods will be too poor to do so after the real wealth loss they experience. And while Americans DID have the most buying power previously, that may not be the case in the future. There's 350 million Americans, but there's a real situation where companies basically all reroute resources to other parts of the world to compensate. Europe (as a more centralized economic entity) is one, but even China could be another. The percentage of households in the rest of the world that could purchase global goods at a rate comparable to Americans could, cumulatively, be used to replace America's central role in the global economy. Americans are going to lose buying power in the next 2 years, And the rest of the world economy is going to try to rebuild America's contribution through other nations of either comparable economic stability or sheer population size

There are checks and balances but none of them are doing anything because they're afraid of a cult.

Sorry, but even a total nutjob like AOC or Crockett will win by a landslide when we're in the midst of an economic depression caused directly by Trump's policies. Most people only vote based on their current personal economic situation when they step into the voting booth.

Turns out they don't work.

My service-based economy dependent on the entire rest of the planet functionally being our servants will live forever. Empires have never been deposed throughout human history. Not even when I claimed independence from the British.

LET'S BUILD A SWEATSHOP IN US

There's no way mutt willing to work this kind of workplace right, they unironically need to import Carlos & Juan even if they have wish-granting Genies that willing to help them to build a new factories in a matter of second

Ohnonononono papa tendo might have to pay like $40 in duties on a $200 unit bought by Walmart, how will they survive at only $450 street price with $80 games?????1?

Bad management. Death of Sega tier blunder. They literally made this same mistake for the WII U if the unit costs anywhere as much to make as it sells for on the street when retailers have their margin to make. But we do know it's <= $350 not 450 because Japan pricing

The judicial branch is supposed to step in if what a president does is insane, but they're just sitting on their asses.

It turns out if you announce a bullshit emergency, which you don't have to provide any proof for, then a single person can have all the power they want.

Americans love to talk tough while being insanely fucking stupid and ignorant. This stuff doesn't happen in 4-5 years. It takes decades of steady leadership and well thought out planning. Which you don't have. You probably will never have it at this rate, your country would faster have prison slaves and child labor LOL

Oh, and even if you do get the factories, good luck getting them staffed. You know that shit's going to suck and not have even the most basic worker protections. Unless you are VERY well off now, you are going to be fucked in the long and short term.

Hahahahahaha aaaa hahahahahaha
The seething is real. I hope Nintendo goes out of business.

The checks and balances only work when enforced, insane Republicans toss their principles out the window the moment they taste a crumb of power and spineless Democrats don't want to rock the boat even while it's on fire. Both are in megacorporate pockets.

What does America even produce for this to even be a negotiation tactic? I do think Trump is honest in that he wants all these manufacturers to come to America.

They will wait and see because Trump isn’t trustworthy. If I’m a CEO how do I know Trump won’t just change his mind again next month on the tariffs

This is why trade policy is supposed to be done by Congress, because if America elects a schizo in theory he isn’t supposed to be able to just change trade agreements at the drop of a hat. If he could then why the fuck would anyone want to do business with America, when America may renege on all its agreements after 2 years or 4 years or whenever the president feels like?

let's raise wages and create jobs

NOT LIKE THAT NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

jlpartners.com/

You can even watch this board as it's started to gradually slide leftwards the instant Nintendo put 79.99 on their website, and it's only been 5 days!

Invest in America or get fucked.

so is the point of all this being Trump and his billionaire buddys crash this plane and then buy everything up for cheap

Can someone explain what are the effects of the Nikkei stocks falling rapidly? I'm not good with macroeconomics

Nobody under 40 gives a shit. We were never going to retire under the system

hey
hey anon
it doesn't actually make any sense to establish new businesses to raise wages
the federal government could do that any time it wanted
any. time. it wanted. all US states and employers within must obey the federal minimum wage or else they cannot do business in this country

Seething Faggotcrat supports

Lol, lmao even, you faggots are on the same fucking level as the Libcuck faggots up here in this shitheap that calls itself "Canada" and they're gonna eat shit too

He thinks that those retards are ever gonna win by any metric, let alone a landslide when they're faggy Commies with a 21% approval rating that will further tumble ever downards

Fucking lmao

Repeating a catchphrase over and over again isn't an argument.

crash this plane

Resisting...urge...to...banepost...

:)

The power of the tariff was given largely to the President because no one ever thought a President would do what Trump is doing.

Build In America in case we do tariffs

Build factory in America that costs 4X as much as building a factory anywhere else (because you have to use American resources) and workers cost 3X-8X as much (because of living standards and cost of living)

New president comes in and tells you that tariffs are gone

Close down factory after just a year or two of activity, netting a loss of at least $2 billion

Great idea, retard
And to be clear, building in America will not lower the costs of goods. The big reason people like goods from overseas is they cost less when something is produced in a 3rd world developing country. Paying Americans to make a Switch 2 would likely have it match the cost of a foreign made Switch 2 + Tariffs.

yeah the economy isn't ruined but i cant vote against trump because of the approval rating poll

wat

30% of Switch 1 sales were US

They won't abandon shit

I don't need to argue when I'm right. Invest in America or you don't need to sell here. If you want to sell here, pay up. Pure and simple, oh and if you wanna pass that onto our consumers, we will fine you billions of dollars.

Trump is best buddies with Putin, so he's striving for his final legacy for there to be a weak and compromised America so that Russia can do whatever they want while his followers are none the wiser.

The only smart post. Tons of retards on here act like politics is some sort of team game, when they're both fucking your ass.

Plenty of us do. Unfortunately there's a bunch of Trump cultists on one side who worship the guy, and then there's the Democrats, who are so utterly insane and repulsive that Trump still looked like the better option by comparison.
I still wish every day that DeSantis had won the primaries. We still would have gotten all the actual good parts of Trump's platform, but he also wouldn't have tanked the economy because ChatGPT said so. But he wore white cowboy boots and his supporters were mean on Twitter and it was Trump's turn, so here we are.

i dont need to argue im automatically right

double digit iq lmao

I don't think there is a point to it, I think it's Trump causing as much damage as he can before dementia claims him like it claimed his father. He's in early stages.

raise wages and create jobs

It's the equivalent of burger flipping job that offer no vertical labor mobility for 99% of workers even after you improve the workplace condition with regulation and whatnot after the said sweatshop move to US

wait wait wait
fellas, halt the political discourse rn
...is it going back up?

It's cute you think this will happen. I'll never vote democrat ever again.

It's not even about Switch 2. Literally EVERYTHING gaming hardware related is about to fucking crater in the US if the tariffs stay. We're all unironically in this together.
This would have impacted them regardless of when they launched. Every gaming hardware manufacturer is affected by this. I assume they've all communicated and are currently trying to lobby the government for exemptions. Buy Japanese products
Cognitive dissonance is how. Read Bad Samaritans.

Proud leftists defends sweatshop labor and (un)fair trade agriculture by international finance

Demands his switch2 be built by the finest Vietnamese child labor instead of some lazy American operating a modern automated assembly line with pesky living wages and environmental laws

raise minimum wage

more jobs shipped over seas to avoid paying higher salaries

not everyone can be a starbucks barista. part of protecting american industry requires preventing foreign competition

the funniest part is this data was recorded immediately *before* tariffs hit and he torched the US economy

Do you have any real argument?

That's not back up. Learn to read a graph.

He's in early stages

I would argue he is further along than people think. He has refused to release his medical records since 2015, something pretty much every other President has done.

Have you SEEN their popularity/etc. numbers? That shit is in the fucking gutter and THEN some.

microeconlet
the majority of restaurants employ illegals in their kitchen and pay them under the table
portland legislated a 20 dollar an hour minimum wage and 1/5th of all their businesses closed within 2 years because they couldn't afford it
the only effective way to raise wages without making businesses fail is to increase demand for labor

Literally everyone is going to start divesting from the USA where they can, and NOBODY is going to trust this country anymore after this. The damage will not be undone, and WE are going to be the ones who are fucked you fucking retarded moron

You're not going to be able to afford anything lol. Everything is going to skyrocket in price. You're probably going to lose your job to once your employer has to cut back or goes bankrupt (if you're a neet you're even more screwed)

i'm not a "leftists".

I think they just didn't have games ready to launch it any earlier, I mean all they have for launch of Mario Kart and Donkey Kong Bananza. The rest of the stuff they showed are for later dates.

what the fuck do you think people vote based on? you really think that everyone checks an approval rating poll before voting?

I'm kinda waiting for him to ask where he is while on-camera.

Its either tendies trying to reverse bait other tendies or regular trolls trying to bait

I hope Nintendo goes out of business

anon, every video game company will go out of business before Nintendo. Unless Intel puts together a more beefed up GPU division (which I doubt, the ARC cards don't seem like they're selling QUITE that well), Nintendo is the least likely compared to Sony's Playstation division or Microsoft's Xbox division

They will automate away all the simpler jobs and only create a few new jobs to fit very specialized workers (ie engineers, mechanics, programmers) who can actually work with robotics. And that’s after 5-10 years when domestic producers build the infrastructure to make it even possible to produce domestically in the first place

It will create a few jobs, for a few people, at a huge cost, after a long period of time

What's not to trust? Trump followed his word. You tried to bypass the tariffs by using another 3rd world slave nation instead of building in America. This is what you get. Trump is a man of his word.

The Federal Reserve has been staving all of this off for years. All of the signs were there and tomorrow, millions of boomers will lose hundreds of billions of dollars.
I voted for this, by the way.

The economy is bad if you don't have a pussy.

I'll never vote democrat ever again.

nigger you never voted democrat in the first place, don't lie lol

Lol no it wouldn't, in fact I'd love it if they just didnt sell it in America for like a whole year. They should delay it by like a year. It would be wonderful watching tendies melt down in real time.

Reggie if you're watching pull the plug on the American market.

billions must cry

>New president comes in and tells you that tariffs are gone

this is the real issue. america can't do anything that requires long term planning if it opposed global financial interests. they are able to plan decades in advance and they have the ability though the media dismantle any attempts to challenge there authority.

Oh, I'm being trolled. NVM.

I have never been in the corporate world before but am about to be by my own blood sweat and tears.
Will I have to put up with this? I don't know if I can handle it. Will I see more of these around me everywhere?

South Korea shot down their retard throwing a tantrum and had him impeached 2 months after

Japans former Prime Minister assassinated with a Codename Kids Next Door contraption

almighty United States is completely strapped in for the ride

pathetic

Reggie

Anon, I...

But America will get its factories and building them before the robots are around will create jobs. Besides, AI is going to kill a lot more jobs than robotics.

both are in megacorp pockets

Then how is this happening? Literally 0 corporations benefit from this

a Japanese electronics developer should have to make their shit in MY country

Lmfao
Fuck you fatso
Seriously make your own goddam console, oh wait you did and it sucks shit.

are you the "3d printed factories" guy?

The approval ratings will completely flip when the reality of how screwed our economy is sets in and nobody can afford anything. We literally just saw this happen under Biden and it's the biggest reason why Trump won this time.
I can't stand the left, but it's just common sense. People's #1 concern is being able to support themselves and their families, and if your party can't make it happen, they'll vote for the other one.

Donald IS a megacorp pocket and he's spreading his ass wide and dumping on all of it just because he can.

It's so fucking funny to watch Anon Babbletards start backpedaling the minute policy started affecting their Nintennies

I did too and it's glorious. I'm 41 and live in a fucking trailer park working 2 jobs. Fuck the boomers. Fuck the economy. Burn baby burn.

Watch this woke movie

Play these woke games

You don't think men can be women YOU'RE FIRED FROM YOUR GOOD JOB NOW YOU HAVE TO WORK A SHIT JOB

nooo don't crash the economy!!!

Hahahahhaa

cry about it. Or like the tendies liked to say, you’ll survive.

No, I'm the AI will kill a lot of jobs guy.

The empire's just too fucking big to function.

70% is still a majority.

look if it took bing bing wahoo getting more expensive to actually make them conscious, then so be it

millions of boomers will lose hundreds of billions of dollars.

Too based to be true

working on an assembly line in a factory is not going to somehow be better than any other kind of job

My duderino robots are already in manufacturing. US manufacturing is actually highly efficient and has been increasingly more productive since the late 90s… because a lot of it is automated and businesses can produce more product for less labors

Jokes on you actually I stand for nothing

The answer to that would be a massive restructuring of global economics, trade, and human rights policies that will take about 4 american presidential terms minimum to bear real fruit, assuming that every leader around the world does their fair share of the work. The problem is that the head retard of murica thinks that he can just upend the American way of life in a few months and everything will turn out sweet. It won't.

By yourself. I'm sorry that you're retarded. Next time listen to what the most powerful man on earth tells you to do instead of trying to find a loophole.

I mean this will afect everyone.
Manga industry, tea, Coffee any niche or needy hobby too.
Sports hombres
Should have just tariff the Steel not the whole.market.

What im saying is how is any of this in megacorps interests

Except for agriculture and construction and whatever all those jobs immigrants keep doing.

mfw living in Russia under western sanctions but I'll get Switch 2 day one for about 500$ thanks to Kazakhstan's import, while ameribums will suffer

No, the average citizen is just really fucking stupid. Democracy doesn't work when voters think that there north dakota vanilla farmers and factories can be built in a few months with 3d printing.

Good. It's what americans claimed to have wanted for the past 10 years. Give them what they wanted. If they wind up not liking it tough shit.

Single governmental bodies in general don't work when they're spread across an entire continent, something something Roman empire.

Honestly it's hilarious. The system is built on everyone just stabbing knives into the US to drink its blood and when the US says no they all start starving.`

Greenhouses dont exist?

Your fault for allowing everyone to vote. Should've kept the stupid people from getting that right.

It wouldnt be so bad if there was a tax cut for american and taxe rate cute but that shit isnt planned UNTIL END OF MAY.
Like why not do that first before tariffs?

If it were just stupid people we wouldn't be in this mess because more than one person would have tried for Trump's life

We did limit it to white men for a reason you know.

already bent the knee

BOOOOOOOOO

Well flat tariffs like this rarely work in general. Putting tariffs on a lynchpin industry makes sense if you want to preserve the employment of people who are already working and ensure that any transition to another new core industry has time to take hold with building new infrastructure.
But tariffs to rebuild entire manufacturing sectors are retarded. The better way is to offset most of the costs of building factories (which is how major industrial infrastructure is usually built in the US, with big fucking cheques from the local, state and/or federal government to make it happen fast). Tariffs don't work because, as government policy, you basically make it impossible to ship goods built in the tariffing country out of it as well due to reciprocal tariffs, whereas subsidies almost never instigate retaliatory trade policy from abroad.
But that would require Trump to want to actually want to spend money on Americans instead of doing the cheap thing, so instead we have 3 years of recession while every major industry just waits for him to be voted out

You need to have an 8 figure salary for that, earn it first.

America doesn't entrenched bureaucrats remove their democratically elected leaders

Somehow that's bad

faggots baiting faggots baiting faggots all the fucking way down with a bit of resetera raiding

The biggest irony is that the tariffs weren't even priced in for the Switch 2. Nintendo was just jacking up their prices because they're greedy as fuck and the most arrogant they've been since the NES/SNES era.

Awesome! Now swallow that pride and build in America.

cheeto-sama...i kneel.

some day you'll be forced to conclude that Anon Babble is not being raided, it just really is that dumb

median age on this board is 13-16, btw

Guarantee if election day was tomorrow the "egg voters" would ensure he lost by 100+ electoral votes, the Dem challenger wouldn't even matter. Americans largely don't have clear opinions on policy past "I won't vote for the person I'm currently blaming for high prices"

Buy American, faggot.

Elaborate

There's two issues though
The tariff rate Trump quoted for other countries is made up based on something that isn't tariff related at all, so it's not clear what could be negotiated other than some of the industry-specific tariffs that Japan has.
The second issue is that Trump has made it really clear that these Tariffs aren't a means to gain negotiating leverage, they are his policy ends. He's been clear he wants to eliminate the income tax and replace government revenue with tariffs. So what exactly is there to negotiate if his goal is to raise money through tariffs, he doesn't want to get rid of them

The better way is to offset most of the costs of building factories

Trump tried that already with foxconn. Biden tried again with the chips act. Both turned out to be scams from shady wall street grifters. We can't trust these companies and foreign governments anymore or assume any goodwill.

This is basically all America is now. People are getting fucked over by the upper class of people, and all the people below them are voting to fuck over their neighbors instead of going after the actual culprits. If your life is shit, maybe you should try helping out the rest of your community and organizing for something better, not trying to pull everyone down to your level out of bitter spite.

haha whoops

Anon Babble never supported tariffs and does not support them now if you look.

why do you think they're praising france and germany banning(or attempting to ban) politicians or political parties

I'd still vote for Trump after you cancelled my job for being "a bigot against trans people and protected classes" fuck you and your protected classes. This is the result of your own actions.

Nippon...

brainlet here who doesn't watch the news, can I get a qrd on this tariffs thing and why everyone is spooked by it?

Which game console is built in America?

Negociante what. The japanese dont buy anything from america that matters.

i voted for this
so fuck you and pay up

He's gonna force all those japanese companies, like nintendo, to invest in american manufacturing plants.

why are all of trump's close advisors fucking known grifters and con-men

Things are going to get really retarded, aren't they?

...So you said tranny on a twitch stream?

Sorry. Trump has been clear: There is to be no negotiations. The choice they have is to abandon their home country and build in America fucking over their own people.

Nobody is willing to endorce the chexks and balances because they're all either a bunch of spineless fucks or swore a blood oath to dullard blumpf. The biggest opposition to the Republicans are the Democrats, who are groveling over the tariffs instead of dunking Trump's shit in like the easiest layup of the century that it is. We, as a society, are fucked and cucked.

If Nintendo were smart they would have put out the "delaying preorders to evaluate tariff impact" statement first and not posted any prices, that way they could have posted their $80 bing bing wahoo game afterwards and pretended it wasn't their idea

Everything is going to be more expensive now. Enjoy!

I tried to be helpful and told I was a bigot. I'll keep pulling this lever. It seems to work better. Sorry, 5 year olds can't be trans. Fuck you and your billions of dollars.

I really dont get what is the goal

This, America doesn't produce anything these countries would want. Why would 0 tariffs benefit America? They want those manufacturers back to their soil

circumcised gook micro-penises typed these posts

He can't, it makes no fiscal sense to do so

damn maybe sleepy joe wasnt so bad

Yeah. Pretty much everybody is going to get fucked, but it is going to possibly lead to the world building global trade without America for the next few years and then America possibly having to beg to be let in when the next President comes in.

They could pull a 3DS, it launched too high, and they "Relaunched" it at a 30% price cut and offered free (what are now) NSO games to make up for those that bought it at the higher price.

please explain why mario kart world cant be on the first switch

If Nintendo were smart they would have released the switch 2 during the Biden administration.

He's gonna make it make fiscal sense.

You are brainwashed. Stop buying into culture war bullshit and smarten up.

US in extreme debt that it cannot pay

geriatric old man activates the money printer

Americans get mad and elect orange nigger

orange nigger uses tariffs to tax americans and generate additional income for the state instead

Everything is now going to be really expensive but that is the point

Rescission time is real.

And how exactly do you expect them to get those factories built, fully operational and running, getting their foot into the market, building customer loyalty in 3.5 years before the next president reverses these tariffs hmmm?

Yes, I know you're having fun larping as a comically unrealistic Trump hardliner very nice

They'd be selling at a loss now if they mark it as $80.

This is totally within the prerrogative of the executive branch though, you can't even really cause him of abusing his power, he's just using it in a very retarded way

first switch can't support 4K resolution and most likely doesn't have enough RAM to even load the program
it's also on a different operating system or CPU architecture since switch 1 games are running in a translation layer like WINE

I just wanted my old job back making 74k a year that you cancelled me from. I no longer care.

Nobody's investing in a schizo state that will randomly slap a 50 quintillion percent tariff if their nose hair so much as itches. They're moving to the EU and China, the more stable markets.

What the fuck are you talking about?

This

Graphically unimpressive

so both geriatric and orange man are shit? it was just a pick your poison situation for the US citizens?

I am an Ambassador

Oh thank fuck. I thought tendies would be getting their $450 switch 2’s. I want them to pay way more than that. And $80 games seems too low for the cultists. Raise the price!

Leftists never understand. It's ok. You don't need to.

And how exactly did you get cancelled? You sound like an anti-social person throwing a temper tantrum.

stop LARPing that you want the US to be some factory slave nation

Hire Mexicans, they build fast

Pretty much! Switch 2 should've released with TotK

you think the retards who have been spamming the entire site for the past week care?

you dont NEED a switch 2

hard times build hard men, you'll live.

How can I understand when you refuse to explain yourself?

Yes, except the geriatric man pussied out last minute and was replaced with a lying bitch

browsing Anon Babble at work and saving "I'M NOT RACIST BUT" WM/BF porn, got caught and fired, believes he was "canceled"

IT'S GOOD THAT AMERICANS ARE GOING TO BE POOR FACTORY SLAVES BECAUSE UH... IT'S JUST GOOD OKAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My hard cock is built for women

The same way they did it with USMCA and Trump's first tariffs on China that Biden did not reverse: Political momentum.

Hard men will rape and gape Donald Trump.

trump wins and tariffs

third worlders start seething and their markets dying

They weren't grifts, as much as the reality that manufacturing in America is just not worth it 99% of the time set in. But they were at least willing to hire people to build the factories in the first place because the US fronted the money for that cost. But the underlying issue remains that the labor costs drive price up enough that anything built in US factories is more expensive than foreign made versions of the same product from the same company, and so the American ones only really make sense to sell to Americans (whose market demand only makes up a fraction of any factory's capacity that has achieved economies-of-scale size)
Like, if Americans could be hired for as little as chinese or vietnamese, I'm sure you'd see plenty more manufacturing here

The breads and circuses are strong...

Imagine the tarrifs go away but the price doesn't change
Tendies will put two and two together and realize it was corporate greed to begin with and will get REALLY mad

This

Sounds like an issue tariffs can fix

Tendies will put two and two together

LMAO! We're talking about a group of people that paid $80 for cardboard

I'm done explaining myself, this is where actions speak. This is where we take over and get shit done. I don't care if you don't like it. We tried having conversations. You didn't listen. Now suddenly when shit starts to affect you, NOW you wanna listen? I don't think so. We do not want woke garbage anymore. We don't want queers. We don't want you. We don't need you. You need us though and you'd do well to remember this.

third worlders

only the G7 are crying lmao, nobody has been more vocal and annoying than canadians, brits and europoors these past months
3rd world countries know their place and adapt accordingly, these "first world" shitholes are in for a rude awakening

games without ameristans

The golden age of Nintendo gaming is about to arrive

Like, if Americans could be hired for as little as chinese or vietnamese, I'm sure you'd see plenty more manufacturing here

Or...if America makes hiring Chinese or VIetnamese labor too expensive.

The Biden strat was to print money, but that caused inflation. The Trump strat is to cut down the scale of the government with DOGE and use tariffs to collect additional tax without actually raising the tax.
Both have tried to act in the interest of the US government which frankly is what they are supposed to do. The left is too stupid to really understand what is happening so they just throw out arguments like, "what about when there is a new pres in 4 years who reverses the tariffs?" "How will these companies move to the US so fast?" In reality, it is about raising prices on consumers for the sake of the government itself. Only needs to last a few years.

I'm on board with building factories here as long as Trump presses NEETs into service working the assembly lines for $5/hour. That way we get cheap warm bodies in factories AND get these list young men back on their feet!

G7 canadians, brits and europoors

I already said third worlders.

Celebrate all you want, but you're just making any politics to the right of Marx unelectable for generations and your life still won't get any better.
Wokeism will be the permanent ideology in America and the west as a whole since its opposition decided to spend all its political capital on the most moronic economic policy ever and make us all a lot poorer for no reason. Future Republicans will be so left-wing, they'll make Mitt Romney look like Pat Buchanan by comparison and they still won't win.

It sounds like you're mentally ill.

build your switch 2 factory in america, japs

okay well we do our primary chip manufacturing through nvidia, who is using a samsung 4nm process. will you subsidize a new samsung fab here in the US?

no

okay well can you help us get priority on the existing samsung fab in texas?

no

okay well will you at least subsidize the labor costs of american workers if samsung builds new capacity here?

no

okay well then the switch 2 will cost the same US-made as it does foreign-made-with-tariffs

lets stick to semantics bro, you know what i mean

Fuck em. Once again nintendo is going to push home gaming forward with even more control schemes and ways to play. People want to act like mouse controls will be utilized even less so than gyro, but those fuckers are retarded. Damn near every console heavy hitter has their pc counterpart which means programming mouse support is far less cumbersome than than hoping the studios learn how to implement gyro. Microsoft already allows for keyboard and mouse support on a lot of their games, not needing the keyboard and having the mouse built in wherever you go goes a long way. Say what you want about game prices, no console is without its launch day drama.

What about sunshine

When we can have a factory up and running within a year, and they claim 10, it's because they're used to the left being so painfully slow. When you remove the useless regulations, shit actually gets done.

If Nintendo wants to price its console out of reach of the average American consumer, they're free to do so.

you don't seem to understand how tariffs work

Countries politicians say something glib and antagonistic about tariff response

Wake up to their domestic stonks imploded and in active freefall

Call Trump on phone in one hand and release statement to press they intend to let Don win bigly with other

Art of the deal and so such

so consoles will become more expensive but what about video games?

When we can have a factory up and running within a year

Who is we?

see

Well I'm just going to keep on keeping on. Good luck in your endeavors. You can't seem to define what a woman is and you call me mentally ill? Why would I ever explain myself to someone so retarded?

When was the last time you bought a brand new video game at full price?

This would be so fucking funny, I'd vote for a 3rd Trump term if he made NEET bing bing internment camps real

print money

The stimmy checks started when we were still in Trump's presidency you absolute dumbass.

When we can have a factory up and running within a year,

Who asked for this? We live in an advanced nation. Nobody wants to work in a factory with the conditions of Bangladesh

some other guys he imagined in his head

Except America making chinese and vietnamese expensive to hire is only an issue for selling in america. It doesn't affect chinese and vietnamese-made goods being perfectly cheap and viable for the rest of the world.
The falsehood here is that there's only two sides to macro-economics: America and Everyone Else. that's been the situation DURING the era of Free-Trade specifically because America's buying-power (nationally) was enhanced by free-trade policy being adopted generally by everyone aside from a few nations. That situation changes very rapidly if the US both becomes economically isolationist and too erratic in its leadership and policy to be a consistent economic lynchpin

People in America. We did it for Intel and AMD. They had factories up within months. Sucks to suck I guess.

You keep freaking out and screaming about some event that happened in your life but you refuse to tell anyone what actually happened and you think that people in this thread are also responsible for it. Sounds like paranoid schizophrenia.

Why should they manufacture in America? Neither the company nor the console are American. Why should you benefit from their labor more than they themselves do?

the ones killing themselves have families.

Half the moron trump supporters in this thread would disappear from Anon Babble overnight. So it's win/win.

Yea, we want Bangladeshis to work in factories with the conditions of Bangladesh to make our consumer goods.

Do you have a source for this?

Regulations like "make sure people don't die"

Clueless Tendie here, I thought literally nothing ever happens. Is something happening or will nothing happen at the last moment?

only needs to last a few years

only

This affects a lot of smallbusiiness too is asking for too much while giving nothing in return for the idea of a better economy which might not happen.
The pople dont trust the goverment that much.

I told you what happened. I got cancelled. Me and many many others. You faggots "replaced" us. Not my fault you're stupid. We are rebuilding America. Good luck with your failing economy. We don't need you.

Intel fled to Israel and AMD fled to India. I don't know where these magical American chips you speak of are, if they even exist.

I just wanted my fucking Bing Bing Wahoo

I am not saying its good. I absolutely oppose it. But this is why you keep hearing talks of "growing pains" from the Trump admin

This guy definitely got "cancelled" for jacking off on the clock and/or browsing Anon Babble on a work computer.

In part it helped me to play only on PC all the last generation, it was only a couple of years and I could already emulate Switch 1

What does that mean? What actually happened to you? Why do you assume that the people responsible for it are talking to you right now? I don't even know who you are.

Amd went to india

Was this the same retard who said American children should be putting in the screws for iPhones reaffirming Republicans want child labor back?

Sunshine came out a year after release. Looking at launch titles only. It's simple, every single 3D capable console that doesn't launch with 3D Mario or 3D Zelda sells less than the previous. There really is no exception.

Thank you. Finally a man with some sense

The rest of the stuff they showed are ports or third party ports.

Wank

Should have made tax cuts first at least.
I have some friends that have to pay 50k extra for some Vietnam imports.
It is just rough yo have a business

Nintendo never takes a loss on consoles, so let's assume they'll round up to the nearest multiple of $50 over the build cost.

If Nintendo wants to price its console out of reach of the average American consumer, they're free to do so.

That's my entire point: there is no situation where an American-made video game console isn't priced out of 99% of the existing American audience, even more so with gaming GPUs
Trump has explicitly stated his intent is to use tariffs to bring manufacturing back to America. Given that he's using flat tariffs on all goods from all foreign markets, this seems to suggest he wants all american consumed goods to be made in America (and presumably have their raw materials sourced in America as much as possible)

It doesn't affect chinese and vietnamese-made goods being perfectly cheap and viable for the rest of the world.

Oh, but it does. China is about to scramble to find other markets to dump their shit in. But places like the EU already run a trade deficit with China and they don't like that cause it kills the prices of domestically made goods and then all those domestic industries start dying.

So, China and Vietname can shift their product elsewhere. Those markets aren't looking forward to all those cheap goods and are about as likely as the US to put up barriers (some already have like Canada and EU's tariffs on Chinese EVs) to stop the detrimental effect of large trade deficits.

Air Riders and Age of Imprisonment.

When you remove the useless regulations

Which are all still in place, by the way, as the Trump administration apparently expects factories to just magically appear out of thin air without them having to do anything to make it easier or more desirable to build here.

With the exception of digital games, all games will rise in price. And digital games will likely rise as well for price parity.

You're seething
You led to this because of some trannies and faggots on your videogames and you're seething

Given that he's using flat tariffs on all goods from all foreign markets, this seems to suggest he wants all american consumed goods to be made in America

Or it suggests you're a retard. There are tariffs on fucking food that cannot be grown in America

so we voted for this because.... concord?

81% of people oppose this

lmao republicans are never winning another election

Retard. There's no planet where Intel's fabs have been "doing fine" any time in the past decade. Even Intel itself doesn't really want to use them. Arrow Lake and Arc are both manufactured by TSMC. AMD has been fabless for well over a decade since selling off GlobalFoundries. All their stuff is made at TSMC too. Why the fuck did you think Taiwan keeps getting mentioned on the news all time?

We dont make those here.
They will have to rise too. And digital will to for parity.

Nintendo never takes a loss on consoles

An American made console would only be priced out of the American audience if the makers price it out. They're the business. If they want to sell to the American market, they'll figure out the math to make it work. Or they can lose the American video game market and all its potential sales and revenue to competitors.

They're just going to make up another boogeyman to get people to vote for them, do you understand how stupid republican voters are?

Vietnam stops the non tariff cheating and market ice outs or Nintendo divests to save the switch 2.jpg

Japan shores up own economy by making Japanese game console in... Get this... Japan

The national betrayal of the Japanese countries ceding their manufacturing industry to sweatshop outsourcing is one of the reasons they're in demographic seppuku. shinzo abe will be avenged

democrats outed as israel bootlickers

republicans outed as retarded corpo bootlickers

Bros... are we finally gonna get a third party president?

Most tranny medicine is imported from india

Trump has explicitly stated his intent is to use tariffs to bring manufacturing back to America. Given that he's using flat tariffs on all goods from all foreign markets, this seems to suggest he wants all american consumed goods to be made in America (and presumably have their raw materials sourced in America as much as possible)

This goes back to how chaotic the messaging is on this policy since they have other people saying that our tariffs will go down to 0% if the other countries lower theirs to 0% in turn. They can't even decide whether the end goal of this policy is to go all-in on "made in America" or maximalist free trade, but they expect corporations to just trust them anyway and invest either way.

That's my point
If Trump wants to build manufacturing back up in America, tariffs basically guarantee that most companies won't bother and just leave tariffs on their goods going in, but move the majority of the stock they produce to other nations with more trade-friendly policies
Because, realistically, who was ever getting hurt by Nintendo Switches being made in China or Vietnam?

they'll the video game market to the american made video game consoles

lol

We all did. But you forced woke politics into our games and said

This isn't made for you so don't buy it

So instead of gaming we started to pay attention to the world and decided to make it better.

anon they dont want to, nintendo hates brazil and even left the country because of piracy do you think they'd spent a huge amount of money for factories

Look, I'd take a thousand axe wounds if it meant we got =<$50 games again

TRUMP, DESTROY NINTENDO AND MY LIFE IS YOURS

I mean downsizing even if it hurts is better option than having to invest in america manufacturing. If they want to close themselves and have no waybfor dialoge is just gonna makenother countries take the bullet and focus on closer markets

Hmmm....

Yes, they want to turn America into Russia 2.0 where the population's will is broken so the rich billionaires can rape and pillage the country with impunity.
This is the big reason why Trump and the Republicans are destroying the economy, to destroy the quality of life Americans enjoy to force them into survival mode and make America Russia 2.0.

America is winning baby.

Republicans love Israel too for some reason.

they just have no idea how to handle Pr after Reggie left, it's quite bizarre

True, though he tariffed Israel too iirc and I imagine they aren't too happy bout that either

Just a much needed market correction, buy the dip, stupid.

population's will is broken so the rich billionaires can rape and pillage the country with impunity.

anon, we are already there. you think the free traders on wall street are looking out for the little guy?

Well congratu-fucking-lations, now it's still woke AND costs an extra arm and leg. And your crusty cheeto guaranteed a woke landslide for the next decade and a half.

It's all about numbers. Which is bigger? The cost of losing the American market or the cost of building factories in America.

This aint a dip it is a cliff.

No, third parties in this country are all unserious vanity projects that refuse to build from the local level up. They all just hope to luck into 5% of the vote so they can get federal funding in the next election. It's a grift.

I would buy a Nintendo console made in America even if it cost $1000. I'm an xbot but not by choice. I want American made stuff...

THIS
EXACTLY THIS

Xbox is about to win bigly with gamepass

ok but building in america is still gonna make it more expensive

I guess, but I still think a GP or LP president would be funny though
Imagine Vermin Supreme got in the oval office lol

The cost of american workers.
Is even more costly because the switch will have parts from other coubtries and those will be tariffed.
If america wants to close its door. Just like they live the great depression the other countries will find a way too.

I'm just not going to buy anything woke. It's that simple. I'll keep pushing for these political changes until companies learn to listen. Charging higher prices for your woke shit isn't going to magically make me run out and buy it.

Either of those options are years out. The Switch 2 is fucked.

why is my president equalizing tariffs with foreign nations and forcing jobs to be moved and created in our homeland

my priorities in life are how cheap i can buy funko pops for and kiddie vidya consoles

this is how you all sound atm
buckle up, war times are coming, you've been too comfortable too long

lol people vote based on their economic well-being. screaming about how a video game is woke is not gonna change this

Xbox iant made in taiwan

Actually, their marketing and PR was pretty on point during the entire Switch era. There was way more baffling PR under Reggie's watch (i.e. some of Nintendo's worst and most tone-deaf E3s). This is easily the biggest snafu they've had in a very long time. It's so out of nowhere that everyone's getting whiplash.

the yen dropped like 3% as well. think its actually over for japan.

The amount of crying you people do is actually funny as fuck. You'll survive. You hate America right? If you hate us so much, why do you need us?

Did they circuit Nikkei again? It was like -5 and something and suddenly dropped to -6.48

FELL FOR IT AGAIN AWARD

let globocorpos fuck you in the ass forever and ship every last job to china

let woke mob take over country and establish george floyd holiday

it's sad things have come to this. it's seems like there is nothing we can do to save america.

But places like the EU already run a trade deficit with China and they don't like that cause it kills the prices of domestically made goods and then all those domestic industries start dying.

Counter argument: most of the core protected industries in Europe are already covered by tariffs. And in many cases, The reciprocal nature of tariffs is something nearly every domestic industry wishes to avoid themselves. In Germany, the domestic EV makers actively opposed tariff measures against China by the EU because it would both hurt the domestic Germany EV industry by hurting overall capacity to meet demand AND it would hurt Germany EV makers by hurting their ability to sell cars in China via reciprocal tariffs

Every console is fucked even current ones.

ship every last job to

india*

A few years from now, people will barely remember what a video game even is since it will have been so long since they could afford one.

y-you are seething

The world will survive with or without you.

Gotta show me the math. I don't know which is more expensive. But I do know just leaving your biggest market is financially unsound.

Nintendo can't go to its shareholders and say we're just leaving America and your stocks will lose a ton of value. However, Nintendo can say we're "investing" in America to improve the resiliency of our supply chains which will result in a few years of lower profits for long-term growth and still keep their shareholders happy.

Just bring the production of the other parts to America as well.

If america wants to close its door. Just like they live the great depression the other countries will find a way too.

Good luck.

costs skyrocket

this somehow will not make the price go up

i think you might be a retard

Still contend the "assassin" was a work. Just out of nowhere the security lapses that hard, and he magically gets an iconic photo out of it that probably resulted in a couple million extra votes? Yeah, okay

whys his neck so long wtf

You keep trying to push your leftist woke gay shit. I'll keep voting for higher tariffs until you learn to listen. I don't care. I don't need video games. I don't need movies. If Nintendo sony and Microsoft went out of business tomorrow because of the woke shit, I would celebrate. I don't give a flying fuck. We're done with your bullshit. Maybe these companies will realize that we're not playing their games. What did you think the we would lay down and take it up the ass? Fuck no. This is what I voted for. This is what I want.

"The world is a slave to a kind of virtual currency called stocks.

To win, they cut costs and raise prices, and society is becoming more and more exhausted.

Let's stop using stocks.

We should ban stocks worldwide."

is this anon right?

Why should East Asian countries manufacture goods for their own country in the United States? Because Trump wants their success to be his success while also threatening them? That's retarded. They have no reason to willingly give jobs and goods to Americans to manufacture in their stead.

Nooooooo why can't someone kill and/or some other force get rid of this democratically elected leader!

YIKES why are Leftists/Democrats such pathetic, psychopathic, demonic sore losers who hate democracy? We really need to have a civil war already so we can start executing them. They are dangerous, not mentally-well, and aren't fit to share this world with other normal folk.

I misread your post and answered the wrong question here >ok but building in america is still gonna make it more expensive
Yes, you're right. Prices of things like consumer electronics will go up along with other various goods. If these tariffs hold, the era of cheap consumer goods is over.

Sorry but people are gonna vote based on the economic situation, you can't change this no matter what you do.

No American asked.

just bring back other producción

Now you need 3 new factores for on product.
Manufacturing is more interwined than ever before.
If he wanted to do this he should have started by steps. But it seems he knows he wont acomplish anything in 3 years so here we are

It's cute that you think we care. Do whatever you want. Figure your own problems out.

Can't tell if you're a leftoid or a rightoid with this level of sarcasm
Political assassination is not ok, no matter who's the victim

Fall in line

Nintendo never takes a loss on consoles

Apologies, they take losses when a console or handheld is selling poorly and they need to move existing stock of that SKU as fast as possible to offset the costs of manufacturing it in the first place.
But when something is selling well, they don't take a loss. The only time they drop cost is when manufacturing costs drop

An American made console would only be priced out of the American audience if the makers price it out

Yes, that's any theoretical American-made Game Console.
Let me ask you something: if a Switch 2 made in America costs $500 to make, Nintendo will never sell it at a loss because there's no reason to do so.
Similarly, if Microsoft wants to make the Xbox Series X in America, it'll cost $800 to make and be sold at a $50 loss. In both cases, you're locking out most of the market because every company has a tolerance for loss that isn't infinite. By your logic, a 'smart' company would give away their hardware for free.

Or they can lose the American video game market and all its potential sales and revenue to competitors.

to competitors

lol
lmao even
what competitors? the atari 2600?

I don't understand the politics, what is Z supposed to mean? Are tendies blaming russians for that too

But anon think of the investors t. Gommunist

kinda, for now just limit stocks to local citizens only and you'll see how much it improves
as long as it remains a globalist kike gameboard things will not change

If you didnt care your president wouldnt be doing this.
Sad

Next decade and a half? More like forever after four more years of open borders and demographic changes that will make it impossible for even the most milquetoast RINO to ever win an election again. This was the absolute worst possible time to start doing bizarre and unpopular experiments with the economy instead of focusing on the mass deportations they were elected to do.

zelda
also lmao do they really?
Hate trump and the tariffs but the price is absolutely nintendo's fault here

biden at his most subservient couldn't dream of worshipping israel the way the GOP and trump has

It's a simplified logo of popular nintendo franchise zuper mario

Zelda

Keep melting down. It's really really funny.

The issue is that the rich in America are different from the rich in Russia
Oligarchs are rich via material and mineral wealth, they own physical assets so their wealth is directly driven by the tangible need for their goods.
the wealthiest in america are rich usually on the back of free trade, even those with material wealth usually sell raw resources for manufacturing here or abroad
Also, it is worth noting: Russia is one of the only countries not being tariffed, so let that tell you that Russia has at least SOME stake in free trade, especially given that the US has a deficit with them too

He literally sent billions to Israel every so often and called the initial Hamas attack "fifteen 9/11s"

reminder that trump won because people vote based on the economic situation. there are millions of americans struggling to find gainful employment who can't afford homes. this might not go well for Trump, but he needs to try something. he tried working with companies through tax breaks. he tried lowering taxes to stimulate the economy. none of that worked.

hands off [insert thing here]

What exactly is this meant to convey?

I know. And it's crazy that what I said holds true even in light of that.

We are not anywhere close to Russia yet, don't be retarded.

Yeah

In Germany, the domestic EV makers actively opposed tariff measures against China by the EU because it would both hurt the domestic Germany EV industry by hurting overall capacity to meet demand AND it would hurt Germany EV makers by hurting their ability to sell cars in China via reciprocal tariffs

I don't know about that.

archive.is/pqYbE

When can the tariffs kill off the thirdies here so the board can be usable again

he needs to do what he was elected to do and bring inflation down and deport illegals instead of retarded economic experiments that are guaranteed to fail.

I mean, he did it to everyone. So, everyone is gonna want to reshore some of their supply lines to be more resilient.

so who stands to gain from all of this
it seems bad to absolutely everyone

It wasn't sarcasm. And no, I disagree. I would not feel bad and would cheer if someone threw a grenade at Kamala Harris, Biden, or whoever else Leftist/Democrat representative. Same goes for the non-politicians. I'd go and laugh at it on Anon Babble and Anon Babble where said events would be posted if they did happen. I have no respect, sympathy, nor empathy for these people. They are evil, and really need to go away at this point.

I don't care if this is bait, do you think anyone is going to give a shit about homo faggots in videogames when nobody can afford them and have to juggle a roof over their heads? You have the higher intelligence of a goldfish and live such a vapid existence that you have nothing but loathing for every facet of life on account of being too inept to change the parts of your life that are in your control. You are a puppet that lives for nothing, stands for nothing, and will die for nothing, all because you are too goddamn empty inside to think about anything other than your own misery. At most, you yearn for a time that never was, a reflection warped and twisted by your psychosis and nostalgia. You are in for a rude awakening when everyone realizes how much of a waste of time your whining is and forcibly kicks you back to the depths where you belong. Fuck off.

They think that if they make their shit easy to convey that people will listen and nod in agreement. Like that we would somehow forget the last decade of homosexual lgbt bullshit.

Rich people that are going to hoover up all the cheap stock so they can become even richer.

If there is one universal rule of politics its, "no refunds"

Realistically, it would look like one of those dysfunctional "coalition governments" you see in parliamentary systems with a bunch of parties who hate each other and disagree on everything. Nothing would get done.

Trump won
BIGLY
NIntendo lost

If nobody can afford them, then children will be saved from your propaganda. It's that simple. Think of the children (in a nonsexual way). I don't want them to have access to your propaganda. If we price everyone out, problem solved.

deport illegals

if he did that everyone would scream that people would starve to death without having them around to pick fruit or do cheap labor. just like people will scream at electronics prices going up now. the only painless route is to embrace it, just let everything but service work die off while the population is replaced

Nothing would get done

On the bright side, nothing retarded or bad would happen

do you understand if you tell someone that during an economic depression after they lose their job and home they'd probably curbstomp you?

to all the anons here
specially those in yurope
brace for impact

expanding agricultural guest worker visas would easily solve that. we already have a system for letting them in temporarily to pick fruit and then going home when their job is done.

I lost my home from being cancelled. This is us curb stomping you. You're just too stupid to realize it.

grocery prices are going to soar on day 1, trump will scare putin into ending the war and we're going to win so hard magabros!

exact opposite happens

umm we wanted this all along

Apologies, they take losses when a console or handheld is selling poorly and they need to move existing stock of that SKU as fast as possible to offset the costs of manufacturing it in the first place.

The screenshot from that article is before the Wii U launched. Nintendo took a loss on the Wii U from the start.

In both cases, you're locking out most of the market because every company has a tolerance for loss that isn't infinite. By your logic, a 'smart' company would give away their hardware for free.

A smart company figures out a way to survive and thrive in the marketplace. That's for Nintendo or Xbox to figure out. I mean, even with Xboxs being made overseas and being sold for $200, they're STILL dying. So, not a smart company. As for "locking out" the market, consoles are already doing that. Most gamers have moved to gaming on their phones, cheap PCs/Laptops or last-gen consoles and they're mostly playing F2P games. So, consoles were already on their way out due to changing consumer behavior.

what competitors?

Any alternative form of entertainment.

what about sunshine?

What did you do to get "cancelled"?

Also, it is worth noting: Russia is one of the only countries not being tariffed, so let that tell you that Russia has at least SOME stake in free trade, especially given that the US has a deficit with them too

I mean, Russia still trades with Europe. EUROPE. Europe still buy energy from Russia even as Russia is invading them.

Yes, I want ukrainians, euros, browns and (you) to die.

Actually groceries have gone up in my red state. Not by a huge amount, but it's still noticeable.

Grocery prices haven't soared though. They're still not great, but haven't "soared". Egg prices have dropped too.

I'm South American so I couldn't really care about what's happening

I love my city #handsoff

Think of the children

Yes, think of the children whose parents will struggle to feed them since Trump wrecked the economy and made everything so expensive.
"Destroying the economy is worth it because my toys were too woke" is the kind of message that will guarantee leftist/woke dominance forever and permanently discredit the right. It's not a serious political opinion, it's the frivolous and nihilistic cope of a manchild.

Tendies are buying anyway

archive.is/pqYbE

Again, EU generally tariffs their core industries the protect their workers, but they're not usually pushing for tariffs on developing industries or tertiary industries.
Also, I want to be clear about this that I'm sure the whole world would prefer having America as a trade partner but my point is that it's not the end-of-the-world if America decides to become an economic island as a matter of policy (rather than as a negotiation measure). There are ways for other nations to manage their excess capacity and demand to other nations because that's the entire point of free-trade: entire nations specialize at certain goods and materials and processes to bring costs down for everyone.

I said:
Men are men and women are women. No amount of injections will ever change that.
Not my fault you can't listen. Now bite the fucking curb.

so what will it take for donnie to back down

cant stop wont stop

you are the biggest retard in this thread

Nintendo isn't a developing industry, they set standards. If they're too stupid to figure this out, they deserve to go out of business.

The same children that see their mothers and fathers look them in their eyes and tell them that they can't get that one new toy, or any new clothes, or how things are too hard to have fun. Those kids will definitely care about THAT.

Did you read the screenshot I took or the article? It say it right there that the Europeans quotes in the article are scared cheap Chinese goods will destroy their auto industry.

last paradise in earth, treasure it plenty, vote for ultra nationalists and bunker down

The best part is that India and China are getting the most out of this since BRICS doesNt give a fuck about the US-backed economy

Not him, but you all are literally crying because you can't consoom your children's toys as easily. Calling others manchildren really shows a lack of self-awareness.

If this is true why didn't Kamala or Joe fake an assassination attempt? Because people would be cheering on the assassin.

Good parents will set them down and explain why it's bad for them. The world is healing. This is a good thing. I'm sorry your parents hated you and gave you an electronic nanny instead of spending time with you. I feel really really sad for you. But this must happen. It's for the greater good. It's for our future.

China doesNt give a fuck about the US-backed economy

Who? To what? In what setting?

The screenshot from that article is before the Wii U launched. Nintendo took a loss on the Wii U from the start.

apologies again, I didn't see that

A smart company figures out a way to survive and thrive in the marketplace

Yeah, it's called moving excess capacity to other markets.
Saying "good company figure out how to thrive in arbitrarily difficult market" is retarded because, no, they don't.
You don't see a lot of sales of Nintendo Switches to North Korea for a reason, retard

Any alternative form of entertainment.

Ah yes, the great American-made entertainment industry of crystal meth
be serious, man. people are not going to start reading books or watching more tv or listening to more music as a replacement for the serotonin eye-shot that is video games

Who cares? It happened and I'm doing my part to set things right.

He's not going to back down on tariffs since they've been his defining political stance for decades and he doesn't have to worry about re-election. We should just hope that he fires his economic advisors and gets someone more sensible to rework the tariffs with a better plan.

Video game consoles are a tertiary industry for most countries because they weren't and aren't a critical part of their workforce.
Semi-conductors in general haven't been, and realistically the only reason we started building fabs in the US is more because of the national-security issue of having all our capacity in Taiwan (a country at risk of being invaded) than it was for the economic benefit

refuses to go into detail

lmao you must have fucked up bad then. if you were in the right you'd actually say what happened but you know that people here would shit on you if you told the story

Nothing, you have to remember this is not about bringing jobs back, this is about revenge, he wants to see the world and country burn.

Jd Vance will literally just keep towing the line and I'm voting for him in 2028.

he doesn't have to worry about re-election

he doesn't know

China squaring up for a trade war

your point being? This is not something an econony built on the petrodollar can do.

Riiiight, I fucked up. Uhhuh. Keep telling yourself that. I'm sure it'll make things easier. It's sad that you can't accept reality but we no longer care.

yeah bro i was totally in the right

n-no i wont say what actually happened

btw posting on Anon Babble isn't activism

Yep, [HEAD CANON]

Yeah, it's called moving excess capacity to other markets.

Excess capacity doesn't just sell itself. It needs consumers. Markets that consume. It's hard to replace the American consumer.

Saying "good company figure out how to thrive in arbitrarily difficult market" is retarded because, no, they don't. You don't see a lot of sales of Nintendo Switches to North Korea for a reason, retard

The US market is not arbitrary. The message is pretty clear. Build your stuff in America and avoid the tariffs. That's pretty simple, even if the math figuring out the costs will be painful. And North Korea has far few people and they're much poorer. I assume Nintendo sells just fine in the autocratic Gulf states.

Ah yes, the great American-made entertainment industry of crystal meth. be serious, man. people are not going to start reading books or watching more tv or listening to more music as a replacement for the serotonin eye-shot that is video games

Nintendo isn't the only one making video games, they aren't the only ones making consoles, and they aren't the only ones with video games on their platforms. I mean, even before Trump's tariffs, in the long history of video game consoles, Nintendo has had bad cycles. So, competition will exist and prices will matter and businesses that succeed will figure out a way to navigate the currents of the post-Trump Tariff markets.

Microsoft just doesn't care about Xbox Game Division and probably wants the branch to die and Xbox to end. They've been around for 20 years and have made literally 0 dollars. The branch has earned the equivalent of 1 Janny paycheck.

I said what happened. What does it matter who I said it to? Someone got offended, I lost my job, because my freedom of speech didn't protect me. Naw bro, I'm not playing your games. Even if I said it directly to some tranny (i didn't) why the fuck does it matter? I'm done standing by letting this bullshit take place in my country.

You just pick out one segment of one line of a multi-line tweet from a screenshot with two tweets.

trump enacted a national emergency which gave him control over tariffs and congress froze the clock so it won't end giving him more power, or something like that.

wait, we're in a national emergency?

Yes, and my point is that they would rather strike a new trade deal than just erect flat barriers to entry because European EV producers are already operating on thin margins as is and would stand to lose more than gain.
I imagine that China will bend more on giving the EU some assurances (such as placing built-in overhead to certain vehicle models so that EU-made vehicles of similar standing are more price competitive) in the coming months as Trump makes it clear that tariffs are his term-long plan

So is the only solution now is World War III?

whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2025/04/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-declares-national-emergency-to-increase-our-competitive-edge-protect-our-sovereignty-and-strengthen-our-national-and-economic-security/

NO GOD NO

If you can't build in America, and you want to fight? Come try. We have the largest standing military on the planet. Good luck with the most guns in the world.

he wants nuclear war

bad idea dude, we're all gonna die
youtube.com/watch?v=6l6vqPUM_FE

There's never going to be another World War.

Never say never
Society does like its reboots/sequels and remakes these days...

If there is, it wouldn't take that long. We never stopped creating military technology in the United States.

I reiterate that the article quotes a European that says closer ties with China may kill the European auto industry. The European EV producers will get wiped out eventually because China just produces more EVs and cheaper EVs than Europe does. And that's assume it's a fair deal without China stealing European IP and taking their factories in China.

What's basis would Europeans have to trust China on trade after the past 25 years of their malpractice? Not to mention the Chinese are supporting Russia's invasion into Europe.

it wouldn't take that long

For every country in the world (including US) to be nuked to hell, retard
That's why there's no WW3

NO BRAKES

i figured trump would kill the switch2 for the entire north america market, but if he kills the switch2 in japan as well, that is some great depression levels of FUBAR and he's only been president for a few months KEK

It's the other way around:
What is trump going to do when most american companies and nearly all foreign companies don't build in America? He's either going to have to drop tariffs (likely accompanied by some kowtowing but that's cheap from foreign dignitaries) or he's going to go to war with other countries opium-war style to force them to move their capital into the US

I think it's time to stop doing business with China entirely.

but if he kills the switch2 in japan as well, that is some great depression levels of FUBAR

God, I fucking wish. Things won't that well though.

Retarded
It's not about weaponry
It's about control
Corporations run every government
Countries barely exist anymore

Trump's end goal is to force all countries to peg their currencies to the US Dollar.

Over the tendie tablet, get real

There's a third option. Companies will conform or be forced out of the United States and barred from doing business on American soil. We. Don't. Need. You.

Well, no, deportations and immigration restrictions are actually popular. Tanking the economy out of nowhere with a retarded ChatGPT formula is not.

Who runs China and Russia and Israel?

well imagine some tendie killing trump? That could happen

Out of nowhere

It's been a long time coming. This is just the bubble popping.

tbf when South Park called out the CCP on their hong kong bullying, the CCP got REALLY pissy and seethed at the US and people thought WW3 was going to start over a cartoon
So honestly it wouldn't surprise me if vidya could actually cause WW3 this time
Hope everyone has a bunker, I certainly don't

some tendie is gonna shoot up walmart because he wasn't able to pre-order the Switch 2

Imagine

That's all you can do. I hope the FBI raids your house for making a death threat against my president.

Big corporations

shoot up walmart

That or a Nintendo Store
Or *worse*, NoA HQ, which would be a REAL crisis moment for Ninty

You don't want a bunker. You wanna die immediately in the first volley. Those who survive WW3 will end up living through hell and will probably die anyways.

Nixon and Clinton should have never sucked up to China in the first place. That might go down as the worst policy decision ever.

No no no, it'll be a GameStop. He'll be wearing his cape and using his replica master sword. He'll get winded trying and the cashier will die laughing.

It's more likely to be Mossad given that even Israel is getting hit with tariffs.

What happened to the bump limit
