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?

No, actually he isn't.  It isn't simple to explain why he is wrong though.

And getting increasingly off-topic for the group, too (although I
admit, I'm partially to blame for that and I apologize for my earlier
rant. I surrender all my Internet Points for the day).

Unless you can point to games that use tarriffs. I think they were
something levied against you in "Sid Meier's Colonization." Are they
an available tool in "Victoriana" or "Hearts of Iron" or any other of
Paradox's StRPatgey games?

TL;DR: let's keep csipg.action a haven from the horribleness being
inflicted upon us in the Outside World, maybe, please?
