Kek
Drumpf won again

Cheeto Hitler caused China not to get the Switch 2

lmao

You do realize this would absolutely devastate Nintendo and we might not get another console from them after this one right? You best hope they release it soon in China

Based

nooooo 50 cent Temu garbage will cost more nooooooo

were the US really subsidizing every other countries imports?

Chinese dont -buy- videogames.

Like you wouldn't believe. The US has been propping up most of the global economy for decades now.

Oh no
Anyway

Don't most Chinese get their consoles from Japan to avoid the censorship anyway?

They're going to announce the North America release date delay next.

Arent chinks mostly PC players?

China killing itself

nice

Trump just jacked up the China tariff to 125%

Why do you think their immediate reaction was to be utterly furious, accuse Trump of "destroying our way of life," and go straight to international media to get them to brainwash Americans into forcing Trump to stop?

It's not working though because none of Trump's voters entered into the panic that they tried to artificially force among the population.

Too low, go higher

this would absolutely devastate Nintendo and we might not get another console from them

Doomed since 1889

Muttbros...

lol nintendo is the most flush with cash they've EVER been, they're fine as a company

Fuck china and fuck you

looks like it'll just be EU, MX and JP fags on the mario kart world servers

I imagine MX is next to prevent people in the US trying to smuggle them in.

you should be a little more fucking worried about the republican controlled house trying to abdicate all power over tariffs to trump in an unconstitutional move to ensure orange man gets his wishes than you should be worried about the average orange man voter being too smart to fall for it while he tries to force isolationism and the return of manufacturing on a country whose economy is service-based (when china did this it was called the great leap forward)

Nintendo is locking themselves out of the biggest video game market on purpose? Are they fucking retarded? Chinks are a gold mine for gaming.

The Chinese usually buy their consoles from outside of the country anyway.

You guys are fucking retarded. Nintendo preorders are still listed for May 8th and the release date is still in June. The only people who got fucked are scalpers who rely on Gamestop & Best buy to get the console

no, they are just looking to see if the stock they currently hold is enough to even satisfy western demand. It is infinitely less complex to operate in the EU and US vs china

Oh no anyways

How are tariffs not foreign policy or diplomacy?
That's why the President is there.

What the President SHOULDN'T have is all the fucking domestic law-making powers that Obama forced onto the office.

the constitution dictates that congress (house and senate) controls tariffs, not the president, who gave himself tariff power through executive order (not legally binding) and goes unchallenged because he has the mystical ability to attract business partners and political followers who believe *they* won't be burned and destroyed like every partner and follower he's had in the past fifty years

you are watching the constitution be undermined and ignored in real time and your first thought is "it's foreign policy tho". don't be silly

That might be a good thing, they'll probably start porting they're games to pc

Don't cry when Nintendo posts the delay press release later in the week.

So how much are we predicting the Switch 2 will cost in the States?

i think they will eat the cost on tariffs and charge $450/$500 as originally planned for it while being completely furious under the hood, because they won't get much money on it if they sell at an extensive loss in america but they'll make even less if they sell at tariff compliance, america is too big a market to ignore

you are watching the constitution be undermined and ignored in real time

Nah, I watched that happen in Obama's 2nd term.

Tariffs are foreign policy and diplomacy which is why they aren't challenging him, also because Congress can't even agree on /our/ budget without threatening total government shutdown or shoving in 500 unrelated laws hidden in the budget details.

this would absolutely devastate Nintendo

holy based

Keep seething eric

Congress is impotent.

Anything federal should be under the President and checked by the Supreme Court, including trading with foreign nations, all foreign diplomacy, and the borders of the Union.
Everything domestic should rarely ever rise above states and their own governments.

kek based
make this the most fucked up console launch in history of gaming
yes
after they abandoned animal crossing, i have hoped for this
they deserve much worse

You will own nothing, and you will be happy.

China will never matter as a market for Nintendo, bwo, your precious SIE will collapse.

You do realize this would absolutely devastate modern Nintendo

I don't care and unfortunely it won't, they have 80bn.

The Five

like all 24/7 news networks, they simply must find something to talk about

after they abandoned animal crossing

Proof?

very nice

US tariffs on Japan and Vietnam paused

Tendies... we won...

GET FUCKED CHYNA

Trump just paused the tariffs on over 75 countries for 90 days (specifically the ones who have called wanting to make a deal). The only ones who don't have the pause are places like China and the EU.

The Switch 2 is going to be $450 still though. They aren't lowering below that based on Doug Bowser's comments. Mario Kart World is staying at $80 too.

still 10%

Trump paused the tariffs
It'll be the exact announced price of 450/500

Easy to eat the loss, the yen is still weak.

He cut that one too for at least the 90 day negotiating period

specifically the ones who have called wanting to make a deal

I was told that Trump was doing this randomly to punish people and that there would be no deals....

and the EU

No, it's just china. The EU only retaliated on tariffs that were placed months ago on its automotive, aluminum and steel sectors, they had no plans to retaliate on the blanket tariffs yet and immediately called to make a 0/0 deal.

Didn't launch yet

Already flopped

LMAO!!!!!!

Nintendo consoles were straight up BANNED in China for decades. Their business does not rely on the country whatsoever.

You do realize this would absolutely devastate Nintendo

Sounds like everyone stays at 10%.

How do you raise tariffs while banning American goods? doesn't that do jack?

Better start worrying about the 125% cost increase on PS5 production sonysister. Those GTA6 bundles won't make themselves.

125% CHINA TARIFFS

WE CAN'T STOP WINNING

PlayStation is the only one that's going to be effected by this stuff. Nintendo is going to be fine.

Oh nooo I can't get another console to play rehashes of kiddie games from 40 years ago on, what'll I doooo

Was the 34% tariff in place before trump came into office? I'm not sure it's been difficult to keep up with the news the last couple of days.

Tariffs on most countries won't go into effect

Only on EU, Canada, and China, who retaliated with their own tariffs

All Nintendo products for the Canadian market go through the US before getting shipped to Canada, as confirmed by former Nintendo employees

This is why Switch 2 pre orders were also delayed in Canada

Does this mean the Switch 2 will still get a tariff price increase but only in Canada? Am I the first to connect the dots?

wrong retard

Only on EU, Canada, and China, who retaliated with their own tariffs

*BUZZ* wrong, the EU retaliated PREVIOUS tariffs. They immediately wanted to make a deal on the retarded blanket tariff shit, Canada and Mexico are also safe.

How so?

Century of Humiliation 2: Electric Boogaloo

What the fuck does US even export? Diabetes and obesity?

They did it because the AMOUNT of tariffs are retarded and tariff stacking is a thing which they don't realize.

There is a reason that tariffs NORMALLY aren't beyond 10%. Usually in the single digits.
It's not just the end product being tariffed, it's the components INSIDE OF IT, too. This leads to an exponential price increase.

China was the exception since the US has been in an active trade war with China since 2016. This is why they had large tariffs toward one another.

Furthermore a big reason these companies left manufacturing isn't JUST because of labor costs but also to be closer to the raw resources, closer to the specialized skill that the US may be lacking, etc. No amount of tariffs will EVER make up for those.

On top of THAT the tariff rate was computed not using tariffs, but the trade deficit. Trade deficit is not a bad thing. If you are a big country with a large population and a lot of money then you will naturally buy more from smaller countries with less wealth and a smaller population than they will buy from you. That doesn't mean the smaller country is "raping and pillaging" you. It just means they have more to sell to you than you have to sell to them.

Especially if the things you buy are low value raw materials that you then process domestically to become even higher value end products that you sell for a profit.

Hell "just bring manufacturing back" you really want low paying, shit quality sweatshop work back that will then make these items still more expensive and less competitive than Indonesia? Because even China is trying to move up the value chain and trying to replace the export of t-shirts and toasters with artisanship and high tech.

the military industrial complex

Next you'll be telling me China is getting its most favored nation status revoked by the State Department

he thinks chinks actually buy console via official channels

lol, LMAO even. they're just going to import the international edition switches from japan, that's what those models are for (you didn't think nintendo ACTUALLY made a switch version for fucking resident gaijins did you?)

That only goes to terrorists for free tho

tech and energy

oil, software, industrial hardware, and dollar bills

Then just declare the US an elective monarchy because that's basically what you are requesting, just replace the Supreme Court with the Church that has the power to excommunicate the king for "unchristian behavior" and you basically have the exact same system of the Middle Ages.

Especially because without Congress the president can just ignore Supreme Court decisions anyways, because there'd now be nobody to impeach him in that case, so you may as well get rid of the Supreme Court too.

China buys nothing from the US except food so I don't think the burgers much give a shit. If anything their eggs will go back down in price.

there aren't gonna be any deals anon, this is just him finding a way to back out without looking "weak". he's cancelling his tariffs while fully embargoing china, but not admitting his plan failed so he's just gonna hope people forget about the tariffs in 90 days.

Then just declare the US an elective monarchy because that's basically what you are requesting, just replace the Supreme Court with the Church that has the power to excommunicate the king for "unchristian behavior" and you basically have the exact same system of the Middle Ages.

Don't threaten me with a good time.

If you think Trump's real plan was to have 80% tariffs across literally the entire world you might be quite literally retarded. This was always about China in particular while bullying as many concessions out of everyone else that he could get.

China in their tantrum decides to makes its own knock-off

The Shitch is actually a thing

This. Time for the planet to stop being China's bitch a tad

They did it because the AMOUNT of tariffs are retarded and tariff stacking is a thing which they don't realize.

If a country's leader feels it's unfair, he can pick up the phone and negotiate with Trump. I don't think it can be made anymore clear short of Trump explicitly stating it that he wants everyone at the table to discuss their individual relationship with the US.

demand is so high that nintendo has to triage which countries get to buy it

miyamoto wonned

Don't believe the media; Trump is not as stupid as they say he is. This fucker used to be CEO/owner of conglomerates; he knows how to make bussiness and will achieve results one way or another

China is utterly irrelevant in the console market and most of the Chinese gamers who buy consoles just import them from other countries in Asia.

lmao, vietnam tried to do that immediately by giving him zero tariffs for nothing and he declined, there's absolutely no consistent policy for handling trump except sucking his dick until he relents. you're going to reply to this with "based" so don't go around pretending he's reasonable

I was told that Trump was doing this randomly to punish people and that there would be no deals..

Yeah they all said this and then 6 hours layer I see Ursula up in front of the EU Parliament boasting about US industrial products will be tariffed at 0% going forward.

Everyone talks tough until they get mercilessly bitchslapped by an exponentially more powerful opponent.

he's functionally retarded anon. he's just completely shameless, and started rich enough that that actually worked. Like people don't get that having absolutely no concept of shame opens up a ton of doors that most people literally just can't walk through. It's the reason his empire will collapse when he dies, there just aren't that many people who can be THAT vile of a human, and that's necessary for what he does.

he is not as stupid as the left says, but he is still stupid, a solid boomer who used to have 110 iq, but whose brain is pickled by age

I was told

Told by who? A seething retard foaming at the mouth with TDS? Learn to be more discerning about who you listen to.

Trump's pissed about Vietnam commiting IP theft, which they do constantly. Vietnam will probably end up having to eat a 10%+ tarriff regardless while also committing to 0% on US imports and it will still be worth it because the trade imbalance is so great.

he's just completely shameless

You're making him look bad; Presidents should be like that instead of pussylords

oh wait, you actually believe the trade imbalance thing, lmao good luck with your brain damage

Exactly. Precisely why women have no business in politics. A country's leader should have balls as big as his country's power dictates.

Pro tip: no deals until they offered a good one to save themselves from the tariffs; only China is playing hardball and it's the only one with grounds to do so. Unlike the EU

Next step is: Making american companies and other abandoning China and return to operate at their homeland at least

God, I hate my country even more. With the tariffs we could make bank on batteries but fucking goverment here has an aversion to having own manufacturing capacity...

The US/Vietnam trade deficit is 125 billion a year. Do you think that's fictitious or do you just not understand the distinction between trade imbalance as thing and trade imbalance as a method by which to calculate tariffs?

They sold like four million Switches to China, total. They could ignore the bugs entirely and miss out on nothing.

AAAAHHHHH I TRADED 125 BILLION IN LIQUID ASSETS FOR 125 BILLION IN LESS LIQUID ASSETS AND NOW MY NET WORTH IS EXACTLY THE SAME OR HIGHER SOMEBODY SAVE ME FROM THESE PREDATORY ZIPPERHEADS

Sugar Daddy US simping for other broken countries that won't even send nudes back

So you don't know what a trade deficit is. Got it.

I've come to accept I have no clue about what's good or bad economically and I can't even find an expert to get my opinions from since everyone is always wrong about something. I wish my brain were bigger.

i have precisely described what occurs in a trade deficit, and your inability to parse that reaffirms my belief that you're a retarded gorilla nigger

I like the cut of your jib. This is why the world lacks leaders; globalization killing any shred of difference and identity. Also, why populim is so rampant among common citizens

Do you want to tariff your grocery store because they don't buy your goods or assets

I've come to accept I have no clue

You're way ahead of most people. Most people think they know and just try to reinforce what they think is right.

He isn't selling goods to his grocery store

NGMI

What the valuation on bananas grown in Vietnam or a shitty BT speaker when it sits in an American consumer's home? What rate does that banana get in interest?

Because the cash the US sends to Vietnam by the boatload DOES appreciate. That's the exact point: that 125 billion in cash is more valuable to the US than those worthless bananas.

You lost.

That's for Israel only

Checks out since USA indusrties got weaker.

was it the gorilla brain that made you think we primarily import bananas from them instead of mostly manufactured goods?

Capture.png - 872x604, 29.83K

Yeah that's gonna last a week tops.
Trump will say he talked on the phone with Xi and it was a "very nice call" and then the tariffs will drop back to 35% (which for China is completely useless)

Didnt he also managed to bankrupt a cassino?

wait, i was so distracted by your bananas, i didn't even process that you said dollars fucking appreciate in value, are you insane as well as retarded?

1032048.png - 1000x743, 75.93K

ALL consumer goods are literally worthless past the point of sale. Don't believe me? Go claim depreciation on your taxes for your fucking shampoo bottle.

can't pre-order a switch 2 in Canada because our government relies entirely on the states acting as a middle man to get imports since we have no shipping of our own

Feels.great knowing my government is 100% reliant on the US and the moment they say "nah go be independent" our entire economy crashes like a rock.

casino

Good, those bussiness are dirty as fuck since their inception and thrive out of mental disease

He'll cuckout like a bitch.

You do realize this would absolutely devastate Nintendo

I fucking wish

Nothing burger tariff that affects literally jack-shit.

Chinese are too poor to buy from US after all.
Based, I'm going to buy one for sure now just to piss off faggots. Its only right if its Nintendo.
Nintendoes what you don't!

ALL us dollars are fundamentally worthless fiat, and thus we lose nothing at all by trading this paper for consumables
come on man, obviously the precise numbers we apply to these things is going to get nitpicky, but people basically pay what goods are worth to them, their value is equivalent it's not a loss

The international version is for other countries so it can be mass-shipped to other countries as well with little to no hassle.

They get almost all of their beef from us for one.

ALL us dollars are fundamentally worthless fiat

Then you won't mind if the burgers stop sending you 125 billion a year for plastic garbage, eh Chang?

China makes a machine that runs Switch 2 software, sells it internally, and lmaos at attempts for legal action

That's all that accomplishes, really.
Do nothing, win.

How do people look at this and still think we are winning? Japan, at it's peak, wasn't even half this map.

i mind that i can't my bananas for free

You are quite literally spouting narrative from people that want to spread propaganda, I might not agree with a lot of Trumps actions or propaganda but business-wise he's done pretty well navigating that landscape in US and being as old as he is, his generation had it quite cut-throat to climb up the ladder even if he started with a loan from a relative, he still had to make his own money and he eventually did, he might've gamed the system but there was no other way for him to get rich. He might even had to deal with a couple of New York mobsters. Would you had the balls to sit down with the made members of the mafia and get out without sweating? Hell no! You would be sweating like you were at the shower.

be chinese guy owning factories n shit in china

US raise tariffs on china

everywhere else lower

me now australian, me now euro, me now whatever I need to be

made in china sticker replaced with made in Cambodia or whatever

cuz they're still paying china in dollars

dick sucking an old man

you cant convince them, they've been BTFO by Trump again and it's embarrassing.

Just saying as it is =/= Dick Sucking.

You wouldn't be able to handle half the shit he's done. Keep staying poor.

slavering all over an old fat man's dick

Corn.
A lot of corn. Some other crops, some beef, but, a lot of corn. Food, broadly. So, actually, yes, diabetes and obesity.
The US exports some other stuff, especially industrial equipment, but most of that is on the basis of the US' economy of scale allowing the production cost to be pushed low enough to be worth just importing it instead of making your own industry to make it.
The corn and other food is one thing, that's a bullet countries will probably just have to bite, but the other shit mostly just gets priced out of being cheaper to import than manufacture due to tariffs, and/or other countries with worse economy of scale already do make them, and can suddenly compete, aggressively in some cases.
A lot of OTHER stuff that is "exported" by the US, like software, are exports of convenience. There's not really any particular reason the US secures them, besides you're already dealing with the US a lot, why NOT get it from them. Those are also at risk, less because of the tarrifs applying to them specifically, but because they're less convenient overall. The tariffs still would hurt them directly if applied only to them, of course, but since people only get them from the US out of convenience anyways, less dealing with the US in general is the main loss.

You are forgetting Sóy unironically, the two big crops besides wheat is Sóy and Corn.

I though China doesn't allow any consoles?

America is literally the world's biggest food exporter, countries will starve if America stops exporting food.

Not forgetting, just too lazy to work around the sonion filter, but yes. That's also on the big "generally, food" list, and is high on it.

You guys should do it. It would be funny. Sick of uppity third worlders.

America literally supports every country on the planet and you still see people mock them. It's why America is sick and tired of this shit and is pulling back completely from helping the world.

Well maybe other countries should stop pumping out kids and start working the fields.

Not really, they will just emulate like most Chads.

I live in a third world country and we don't import anything from the US

video games?
electronics?

You guys should do it. It would be funny.

As third worlder I agree; no need to depend too much on one specific country ffs. Respect yourself a little at least

Nope

I can't even keep track of the trade war anymore, to be completely honest, I also have no fucking idea of where this is going.

i want america to be governed by a king

WE CAN TELL

I also have no fucking idea of where this is going.

WW3

two more weeks, right?

china picking a tariff war with their biggest source of literally everything

kek

America is literally the world's biggest food exporter, countries will starve if America stops exporting food.

Yes, that's what I meant by "that's a bullet countries will just have to bite".
Food production is genuinely a pretty tough thing to get going at scale, especially on short notice, and that's if you even have the arable land to do it. It's not IMPOSSIBLE for a valid market competitor to emerge over time, but, that's not going to be a real subject for years, and at that time frame, we don't even know if in 4 years time, all these are being reverted by whoever the next guy is. Maybe they are, maybe they aren't, maybe there is a next guy, maybe the next guy is more of the same. That's a question for further down the line.
A lot of the other things, though, can pretty quickly be rerouted to other sources, though, with the tarrifs mostly just massacring the advantages of market scale the US previously held as leverage. Not painlessly, not effortlessly, people aren't quiting industrial equipment and software cold turkey, and meeting all the demand isn't going to happen overnight, but it's not as clear cut as food. These things DO exist in the market, they just weren't really competitive before now, for anything beyond meeting local need.

History books will say it was already underway at this point

That's what the Chinese are saying about themselves

(((history books)))

Good luck then, America's massive food production is what allows most countries to not focus on their own food production and to grow cash crops.

Funnily enough this affects Sony even more because Nintendo is based mostly in Japan whereas Sony is owned pretty much entirely by America

Export and import market was completely shaken up and economy works under feeble impression so with the market shaken everyone has no certainty therefore markets are mostly on red or fickles as fuck. That's the 101 of it

Already happened back in 02, bro. You knew it under another name.

Well, he has a point; cold war has been on stalemate since Kennedy.

I mean
With the gutting to education, what's the point in books nobody will be able to read?
History serialized short series is about the best you'll get.

You wish.

No, that was the US picking the Tariff fight because China is gaining greater influence with most of the globe and especially BRICS nations. Unlike the US, China has a planned economy, and other markets to focus more attention on for trading with. US doesn't have that, especially by pissing off even it's allies.

Which 3rd world country?

And Sony sells at loss. PS6 release it's going to be very funny if they do release it next years as snoys want to make people believe

With the gutting to education

Only in the US

China heavily censors consoles and barely allows any games on the storefronts. That's why the Switch didn't sell that well there and Chinks imported them from other countries

They'll either make a deal to port some Switch games to a Chinese available console or get someone to make an officially licensed NotSwitch. Get ready for the iQue2.

If the EU is America's allies why do we tariff their cars at 4 times the rate they tariff our cars? Acting like the US has no basis for being upset is retarded.

dependent on 300 million Americans, much of which are making pauper wages and or unemployed or newly unemployed

You wish, China has over a billion people, they can live without the US and be better off. US, not so independent, most of the shit it imports is from China, even components they use for manufacturing weapons.....US are shooting themselves in the foot.

Grrr we won't sell you a thing

Okay, we'll make our own thing

You can't do that! Stop or we'll stop selling you the thing

Okay

>:(

It's the US doing that though retard, and how is agreeing to get screwed on surplus beneficial to China? Use your head meat, fucking fool.

US are shooting themselves in the foot.

Not if the purpose is to unfuck itself and return to its own capacity as manufacturer. It's a radical measure sure but... that doesn't mean bad. We need to see the effects yet for that

Yeah, but what is Trump trying to achieve with these tariffs? It's been happening so fast and so many people lost tons of money so far that I fear no one has truly benefit from this, the USA the least.

You wish, China has over a billion people, they can live without the US and be better off

Go check out how much food China imports from America sometime.

I realize that consoles were not sold in China for the vast majority of history and you are a fucking idiot if you think otherwise

China is full of snoys anyway

that I fear no one has truly benefit from this,

I made a shitload of money. Lrn2short, plebs.

Does it feel good to lie on the internet?

You do realize this would absolutely devastate Nintendo and we might not get another console from them after this one right?

After this past week of their mentally stunted, cocksucking fanbase defending every shitty announcement about their PS4-teir tablet, once could only hope this would happen.

Here's what Nintendo should do.
Sell the console at a loss.
How much are they selling it in Japan? 350? 300? Sell it like that everywhere and don't raise prices for games and they win.
Eat the costs, the sales will make up for them.
That simple.

America stops trading with China. China literally starves and return to famine days. Chinese factories will have to stop production because Americans consume more slop than every country in the world combined. This means chinese workers will be fired and jobless which in turn means civil unrest as the Chinese will suffer from no work and no food. Not to mention how most of the country are getting into retirement age thanks to the one child policy.

You fail to understand how much China relies on America.

Now MIGAturds will have to explain whi 0 tarifs are a good idea despite defending exactly the opposite a few hourss ago

Are you retarded? Short selling is a thing.

After this past week of their mentally stunted, cocksucking fanbase defending every shitty announcement about their PS4-teir tablet, once could only hope this would happen

Can't wait for Sony to hike prices and squeeze you for all your worth, and you'll defend them too. Then you'll come here and seethe about Nintendo fans being cultists, and the cycle continues.

Introduce a 10% tariff baseline with every country on the planet so America can earn money from trading now

To cause a flight of money into the treasuries and to lower the interest rates on the US debt

get special trade offers from 75 countries that are willing to give America a lot of money just to not be cut off from the American market

to figure out who their enemies are

To pressure and force the world to pick a side, America or China

To cause China to collapse because they have the leverage and cards to before China gets too powerful

The tariffs achieved all their goals successfully

Nah

10% tariffs is the baseline now though? They arent going away?

HOLY HECKERINO YOU'RE [other console fag]!

Like clockwork. Tendies are genuinely incapable of understanding that not every one criticizes their decisions is a console cuck.

Burgers if I don't wake up tomorrow morning seeing an angry middle of the night tweet from Trump declaring 400% tariffs on the chinks I will be very disappointed.

Death to all bugpeople.

Tendies are genuinely incapable of understanding that not every one criticizes their decisions is a console cuck.

But you are a console cuck, I'm a PCfag AND a Tendie, you might be on any console, but you're a little faggot snoy at heart, like everyone who has a massive inferiority complex about Nintendo is.

You need to add as well some certain leech China has; North Korea. China literally supplies that failed regime food for their nation

Not if the purpose is to unfuck itself and return to its own capacity as manufacture

Surely this won't fuck over the working class and make them vote against the Republican party making all of this unnecessary suffering a complete waste of time in the next presidential election which is in...... *checks watch* less than 3 and a half years.

May as well make it 5000%, they don’t buy shit from us. Oh no, the poor soibeans.

Why would the working class vote against the only people fighting for them?

But you are a console cuck because you say le bad things about the heckin Nintenderino!

Cope and dilate tendie.

I'm a PCfag

Likewise, and you'd be better staying in that lane unless you want to get buttfucked by 80 dollar games with no data on them.

That's up on the air and the left is a fucking disgrace at worldwide scale so conservatives only need to show some good results and they're fine. Even then they can pull the we hate Trump as well card and still can win over the left

Cope and dilate tendie.

There it is again, little snoy, your desperate inferiority complex. Even after leaving to PC your humiliation at losing against a baby developer like Nintendo persists

want to get buttfucked by 80 dollar games with no data on them

I thought most consoles already did that. I'm not retarded like you though, so I can import at 60 from France, only stuff that has everything on cartridge, of course.

Why does everyone get mad at the US for tariffs? The EU tariffs almost everything the US makes. I know this because I work for an EU branch of an American company and they even make us pay tariffs on our own products.

Because everyone has been taking advantage of America but now they earn 10% less thanks to America putting up their own tariffs.

There it is again tendie, you're schizoing out thinking everyone is another console cuck. Please talk to your therapist. Hopefully you won't have to downgrade to speaking to some BetterHelp retard on zoom after your 80 dollar purchases and 20 dollar NSO fee.

Why does everyone get mad at the US for tariffs?

No one did. Tariffs are fine and a part of global trad. Everyone was mad at the literally arbitrary figures Trump cooked up with chatgpt. He should've just said he was embargoing china.

No, Switch 1 sales numbers in china is just around 1.3 million units and Nintendo still need to share their profit with Tencent. It's nothing burger market for Nintendo

chinks dont buy consoles, and definitely not of the bingslop variety.

you're schizoing out thinking everyone is another console cuck

Ah you can't read. As expected.

Hopefully you won't have to downgrade to speaking to some BetterHelp retard on zoom after your 80 dollar purchases

I told you I import at 60, sonybro

All tariffs are arbitrary though. The EU's tariffs on American products are arbitrary.

International Jewish bankers

Oh wow cool

Ah you can't read.

he says for three posts accusing someone of being another console cuck foot soldier

lol can't even remember it's own posts

I told I have to import to get my tendie fix because Nintendo is fucking my ass with prices in my own country

lol, lmao even

The EU's tariffs on American products are arbitrary.

Not really, they're finely calculated percentages that allow for as fair a trade as possible that doesn't overwhelm European industry. Trump literally just divided trade money spent vs trade money earned and divided that value by half to get tariffs. Trade deficits are NOT tariffs.

can't even remember it's own posts

Kek hello saar, how many rupees did you get from this reply chain?

Nintendo is fucking my ass with prices in my own country

Actually it's GameStop and physical retailers not being competitive enough. They even raised breath of the wild to 70 because they could get away with it. Thankfully I live in the Schengen area.

Not really, they're finely calculated percentages that allow for as fair a trade as possible that doesn't overwhelm European industry

The US disagrees and has said this for years/decades. Maybe they should have sat down with the Americans at some point to reach a fair deal and then they would have had to worry about it.

And obviously the EU knows they weren't fair because I just saw Ursula at a podium in Brussels declaring all US industrial products would now be at 0%. Apparently it really was just that easy.

God I hope you're right. Let Nintendo go turd party

Come on anon, given how China could transport stuff through Vietnam, they gotta sweeten the deal. Plus a ton of shit that should be manufactured at home is manufactured in Vietnam.

Someone grab that pic of a fruit cup where stuff was picked in Argentina and packaged in Thailand or Vietnam before shipped back to a grocery store in the US. That shit has got to stop.

uhhh actually tarifs are wrong now

Let Nintendo go turd party

he thinks they will

Nintedo will choose death instead

And obviously the EU knows they weren't fair because I just saw Ursula at a podium in Brussels declaring all US industrial products would now be at 0%

Anon that deal was proposed in 2018.

The US disagrees

They don't, they've never really have. Goods the EU tariffs from the US are already goods that don't sell all that great in Europe like their cars, and the US is a massive purchaser of goods.

Can you read? There are still tariffs. And China's tariffs are seemingly being doubled every 6 hours, which is amusing.

Nothing of value will be lost in that case

They're going to outlast SIE

Sure sweetie, make sure you post that on pol too.

tariffs from the US are already goods that don't sell all that great in Europe like their cars

This is bullshit. Fords are hugely popular in my country, they just cost 30% more than everything else because of tariffs. Korean and Japanese cars I don't even think are that expensive.

he reduced all tarifs to 10% except china. Is fucking pathetic. Your president is a senile schizoprenic old fart same as Biden

modern gaming is so fucking cooked.

Fords are hugely popular in my country, they just cost 30% more than everything else because of tariffs

No, anon, tariffs on us cars are only 10% at production cost, not point of sale, so you should barely even feel them, they cost that much because fords in Europe are a niche product.

Nothing of value will be lost

Wants them to go third party

That second one did not happen though. People were dumping treasuries, not buying them
That’s probably why they had to compromise and have a 90 day pause.

only for 90 days while countries line up to give America everything they have just to not be cut off.

Good.

I sure fucking hope so

Thank fuck I’ve been waiting for this bitch to crash for like 7 years.

sure sure, put on your tin foild hat everytime you listen to the voices

Nintendo has barely been apart of the Chinese market as much as they wish they were so this barely effects them. This thread is swarmed with people who don't know what iQue was.

And Nintendo will once again save it.

Are production costs higher possibly because they're not being subsidised by EU governments like Renault and Fiat are?

god i hope so
FUCK nintendo

Are production costs higher possibly because they're not being subsidised by EU governments

No, production costs are lower because even a subsidized EU automotive market can't compete with the sheer wealth of resources the US drags around. Fords cost more almost entirely because of market factors. Tariffs barely factor in.

That sounds like bullshit. We have a larger population and a larger economy in PPP than the US does. There is no logical reason the EU and US couldn't compete in each other's markets with equal tariffs other than maybe things like food and fuel. This isn't 1948 anymore, we're not rebuilding from a catclysm. Whatever the reason (industriast and union bribes) there is no justification for the EU tariffing US products at rates 4-5 times higher than what they tariff us.

Trump won.

We have a larger population and a larger economy in PPP than the US does

True, (PPP is bullshit but whatever)

There is no logical reason the EU and US couldn't compete in each other's markets with equal tariffs other than maybe things like food and fuel.

Anon, the US has oil fields (we don't have them) which provide easy access plastic production, the US has huge mines (we don't have them) that provide easy access metal production. The US has way more power in their continent to demand rare earths from south America. They play an extremely advantaged game. And again, they BUY more than sell. And that's not gonna change, because we're export economies, and they're an import economy.

Fords cost more almost entirely because of market factors. Tariffs barely factor in.

So then why is there a tariff on Fords?

to be honest I dont feel bad at all, they deserved it after announcing all those shit last week

And again, they BUY more than sell. And that's not gonna change, because we're export economies, and they're an import economy.

They're an import economy because everyone else on earth has massive tariffs on anything they make. Maybe you missed it but this is what they're upset about. If it's not going to chance anyway then there's no reason not to remove the tariffs as a show of respect, is there?

Because it keeps them competitive with the other cars on the market? Undercutting is often frowned upon anon. If we flooded the US with things we can produce at much higher volume and completely devalued the made in USA equivalent, that'd be bad.

They're an import economy because everyone else on earth has massive tariffs on anything they make

No, they're an import economy because they have more money than god and BUY BUY BUY with it. The "trade deficit" is a non-issue and being an import economy is overall a good thing, being a major buyer of something gives you as much sway as being a major producer.

The Chinese don't give a shit about Nintendo, only Valve. They'd be buying Decks instead, if they were sold over there.

Because it keeps them competitive with the other cars on the market?

What are you talking about? Fords cost like 30% more than everything else and he said that none of that is because of tariffs. If that's true then removing the tariffs wouldn't change anything.

we might not get another console from them after this one right?

And that would be bad because...?

Okay so again, why not just remove the tariffs if you're so confident it won't change anything and that's what they want? You can't say EU tariffs are meaningless and then say at the same time say it's necessary that they continue to exist.

What are you talking about? Fords cost like 30% more than everything else and he said that none of that is because of tariffs

Maybe not there anon, but the EU does everything as a unified front, so if there's a market in which the tariffs bump down ford prices by say, 1k, say goodbye to a massive chunk of market.

can't say EU tariffs are meaningless

They're meaningless to the US, they're useful to the Europeans. You really need to take an economics course.

Name a single EU country where Fords are anywhere close in price to those made by EU companies

The US is telling you that they are not meaningless to them. You don't get to dictate to another country what their interests are. All the Americans are asking for is to be treated fairly and that's sensible request if Europe eally is an ally.

America decides not to be taken advantage anymore and pay for the worlds shit

every country drops to their knees

Orange retard caved in like a bitch sooner than I thought he would

Eventually Sony will have to start doing production somewhere else. At least I got my PS5 couple years ago.

And then Steam wins again

he got a PS5

he thinks it wasn't part of the plan

You're terrible at negotiations. Improve fast in case of a divorce/child support

FUCK NINTENDO!

What the fuck does America even produce that could interest a vietnamese rice farmer, frozen hamburgers and gay movies?

all part of the cycle

Keep coping, Chang.

Keep coping bitch

Oh bother.

Where can I buy a the Japanese Switch2? Will Play-Asia stock the Jap language one or just the international one?
Anyone know? And when will they be available to order?

You're paying the exact same price bud, it's not gonna be any cheaper for you. You just read a click bait article that doesn't understand currency exchange rates

Nah the Jap version is like $150 AUD cheaper.

Can't win them all. There are times you have to backpedal if the plan doesn't work.

Make America Depressed Again! I wonder how many republicans are going to kill themselves this time compared to the last depression?

China is dominated by Valve. Nintendo wishes they had any success over there. Their success or failure will be determined entirely by the west.

i bought the dip

Trump just made me a multi-millionaire. I can finally afford the Switch 2. Later, faggots.

Only a few 3rd world vassals, most of the world would survive outside once the find someone else to export to.

"I was only pretending to be retarded!"

you are watching the constitution be undermined and ignored in real time

you niggers were fine with clinton doing this.
You endlessly gloated by obama doing it.
Shut the fuck up.
You don't actually care about the Constitution or Western norms or morals.

Remember anons.
If you have complaints for Nintendo.
Be it pricing, censorship, consumer treatment etc, use this link

to message the Japanese HQ directly without interference or blockage.

China has all these countries and is still barely above the US

Yikes

Cool, I'm gonna tell them they're doing a great job and to keep it up!

leftysisters how are we coping

Wait S&P means Standard & Poor's? LMAO

Delay released

i think they will eat the cost on tariffs and charge $450/$500 as originally planned for it while being completely furious under the hood, because they won't get much money on it if they sell at an extensive loss in america but they'll make even less if they sell at tariff compliance, america is too big a market to ignore

If heavy tariffs are in effect, then they'd rather delay than just eat the costs without raising the price.
If they delayed the product then they could still make profits when they finally launch the product whenever that'd be. Instead of burning deep holes in their checkbooks by selling their new console launch at a huge loss.

Kek

>started with a loan from a relative

In a 2007 deposition, Trump admitted he had borrowed “a small amount” from his father’s estate: “I think it was like in the $9 million range.”

>he still had to make his own money

And as Trump’s casinos ran into trouble, Trump’s father also purchased $3.5 million in gaming chips but did not use them, so the casino would have enough cash to make payments on its mortgage — a transaction that casino authorities later said was an illegal loan.

>there was no other way for him to get rich

Trust fund baby, he started rich already

mafia

His dad and dad's friends connections, doors were already open for him

I'll vote for Trump the rest of my life if he gets Nintendo to port their shit to PC.

Chinks play on some aliexpress "consoles" with stolen roms inside and phone games, they don't play your Switch, PlayStation or Xbox, even PC is relatively small there compared to their population.

This happens right after the spoilers

Hopefully you leafs can start a White positive movement in Canada to rectify that shit.
Very bad position.

Nintendo already does port their shit to PC ;)

even PC is relatively small there compared to their population.

PC is massive over there. Valve owns that market

He’s bankrupted 5 casinos. He’s remarkably bad at business

Lmao they would rather die than ever do that, keep dreaming.

That was moments before it ended up tanking like hell.

china swoops in and makes big trade with the rest of the world that the US abandoned

how is this killing china exactly? they are expanding outwards unlike america and their insular communist style government that trump is enacting

can mutts learn how to use this site already? its really useful for basic and simple questions with easy to find answers: google.com

You're bad at business because you're s marxist transvestite lol

With the gutting to education,

You are beyond fucking retarded anon.

Hilarity watching Trump cave in like a bitch after the EU told him to fuck off and even Fox News admitting the orange retards stupidity is causing a recession

sweatshops are based, actually

It's so over.

Americhads invented the internet. Your turdworld shithole has contributed zero to the world.

Assuming jobs can come back in 3.5 years...why would the working class be upset exactly?
The chances are low due to the systems that need to be built. But let's say every state gets one major factory why would people be mad at having long lasting jobs that pay well, plus secure our nation's own production at least a tiny bit.

buttfucked by 80 dollar games with no data on them.

Why are you lying? The carts have the games on them.
Only SF6, Bravely Default HD and maybe Elden Ring are the game key carts.
The motion is scummy but you just expose yourself as a vitriolic unstable hating snoy for outright lying.

EU already imposed tariffs before orange retard caved in like a bitch

the irony of a nintendofag calling anyone else insecure...

GOOD. BURN THIS GODDAMN INDUSTRY DOWN. I DONT FUCKING CARE

Prove it then.
Record footage of you deleting all your Nintendo emulators mate.
You fags are so desperate to cover your bullshit.

EU already had Tarrifs on USA before he was president, retard

It also only has Japanese language and only takes Japanese game cards.
It's a region locked version for Japanese.
They also get the more expensive global version.

EU raised them in response to orange retards tariffs earlier today, inbred moron

lol, chinks don't buy nintendo hardware, they buy japanese PiS5s

You're a consolecuck dude, you're just wasting even more money because you're too dumb to use your pc to the fullest.

And now they're offering to drop them completely and also suck his huge cock.

I want consoles to die though and consolefags to get filtered.

Keep making exclusives or not buy

Send

China doesn't give a fuck about Nintendo. America is Nintendo's biggest market.

Yeah because they totally listened when people told them to stop banning and censoring games.

we don't produce shit. we BUY everything. why sell some shitty product in your third world town for $1 when you can put it on amazon for $20 taking a huge profit with no import tax from the US government except for amazon's selling fee.

these countries are begging to reduce the tariffs because cutting them off from the US market will destroy their entire economy

How are you so stupid? I'm genuinely impressed.
