There's a lot of news about the imminent (give or take a few months)
release of Nintendo's Switch 2 portable console. Now, generally I
couldn't give a damn about the Switch --I've little interest in
consoles, portable gaming or Nintendo games-- but one factoid did
pique my interest: apparently all future first-party games for the
Switch 2 are expected to retail at least for $70 USD.
 

Does that include the tariff for us Trump World slaves?

I know Trump is kind of a cartoonish,
orange-with-road-kill-on-his-head sort of douche and all, but isn't he
kind of right about the inequity that's been going on with regard to
tariffs?

He's not exactly great at idea execution so I don't know if it will
take hold, but I'd love to see the US become strong in manfucturing
again.  And beyond that, it's kind of dangerous (from a national
security perspective) to forget how to make your own stuff, and
offshore it all.

This is a very different situation than the G.W. Bush "send it all to
China where itz gud and cheap" shit.
