I’m not gonna lie, Donkey Kong Bananza looks so good that I almost forget that the Switch 2 buyers are getting scammed in general.

I think the handheld itself has a very decent price considering how it draws this power at the efficiency. Playing Cyberpunk 2077 at 9w is seriously an impressive feat. Sure, the ARM cortex is inferior to the AMD Zen 2 of the current gen consoles - the Switch 2 CPU is even underclocked, using 6 cores of 8 - but if Nintendo went for a more advanced chip, the Switch 2 would have heating and battery life issues.

The game prices are the real issues imo. You can buy Cyberpunk at a much cheaper price at the competition but why do people have to pay $70 for it? It's way too expensive.

Yeah the system's price is fine but the new standard for game prices and other bullshit like game key-cards and the usual NSO fare is the real Nintendo problem.
