How the Switch is about 400-$500 Canadian with a bundle, I dont understand. For a hundred dollars more you can get a One X which is a helluva lot more console than the Switch. --- http://i.imgur.com/Fbusl2a.mp4 <cite>SwayM posted [p:889284038] in Why the he...

You would think Nintendo would be the cheaper option by far --- http://i.imgur.com/Fbusl2a.mp4 <cite>SwayM posted [p:889292142] in Why the he...

Your real problem is that you live in Canada where the prices of everything are jacked up thanks to the weaker CAD and 13-15% HST. --- Hmm... <cite>Paragon21XX posted [p:889293033] in Why the he...

SwayM 10/28/17 1:22:17 AM #8:	Thats not the problem when comparatively theyre the most expensive option by far.

I could get a PS4 or Xbone and games for half the price of a Switch The PS4 and Xbone are four years old now and the Switch is only a few months old. It should be obvious that the older consoles would be cheaper. --- You enjoy teaching high schoolers, and I'll enjoy creating my crappy manga. Let's see where we both are in a year.

SwayM 10/28/17 1:44:34 AM #11:	But heres the rub, Nintendo NEVER drops the price. I was very close to buying a Wii U if they simply dropped the price once. They never did, shit was always ridiculously expensive. So they never got my money. Might happen again with the Switch --- http://i.imgur.com/Fbusl2a.mp4 <cite>SwayM posted [p:889294086] in Why the he...
