Yeah that's driving me crazy too, it's 2025 and it's an obvious marketing gimmick to withhold the OLED at this point

This is bothering me too... But there is a huge perk of being an early adopter though... 🏴☠️
I think I'm going to hack my switch 1 now, and put some custom mario kart tracks on it
I thought the same thing
Bet they priced it that high to get ahead of any tariffs that might affect them. Consumers really don’t like to see price hikes right around a launch. Plus they still want to milk the Switch 1 since they probably have a very healthy profit margin on that machine. This price makes the Switch 1 look very appealing for people who still haven’t bought one.
Okay, but why are they charging $80 for a digital game, which tariffs don't apply to?
