>Suing Nintendo for not passing the tariff refunds back to consumers
Nintendo can just argue they did exactly that by not raising the Switch 2 prices like Sony did with the PS5.
Hell, it says right there in the article, pre-orders went up before the tariffs and were not impacted.

>>737437371
Nintendo shifted the tariffs to accessories instead, anyone that bought an accessory for the Switch 2 was impacted. The Switch 1 itself also got a tariff price hike, but I'm not who the fuck was buying one instead of a Switch 2.

>Suing Nintendo for not passing the tariff refunds back to consumers
Let's be honest: none of the affected companies are going to do this.
>>
>>737437535
>Nintendo shifted the tariffs to accessories instead
I know, but it doesn't matter, they can still argue they ate losses from keeping the Switch 2's price.
The plaintiffs are basing their case on the tariffs having 0 impact on Nintendo's bottom line. How can they possibly prove that? Just because the Switch 2's launch was a financial success doesn't mean they didn't potentially lose money from the tariffs.
>>
>>737437535
>but I'm not who the fuck was buying one instead of a Switch 2
This was also happening when Switch 1 refurbished models were at their cheapest, so it's on the buyer at that point. But this is a snoy seethe thread, what's there to expect?
>>
>>737437850
Look at it this way:
>Nintendo raises the prices of items to offset tariffs
>Government potentially refunds Nintendo for the tariffs
>Nintendo now made extra money and the consumers don't get refunded their share of the tariffs they had to pay
Consumers that bought a Pro Controller 2 or another set of Joycon 2s WERE impacted by this, even the NSO controllers went up in price. Basically "if Nintendo didn't actually pay tariffs, why do I have to?", the tariff refunds are a can of worms because there will probably be similar lawsuits like this for other companies too.
>>
>>737438160
>Nintendo raises the prices of items to offset tariffs
But that's the problem, we don't know if raising accessory prices offset the tariffs or just softened the blow, because they didn't raise prices across the board and they didn't touch their current big ticket item.
The plaintiffs are saying Nintendo already recouped the costs and tariff refunds are a trick for more profit. How could they know that? How can they possibly prove it in court?

It doesn't really matter, the argument is that consumers should get a partial return as well otherwise this was a transfer of wealth from consumers to corporations (across the board, not just with Nintendo). It's likely those prices never come down as well and Joycons will remain $100 and Pro Controllers will remain $90 going forward.

>How can they possibly prove it in court?
If Nintendo is forced to hand over financial reports, the numbers would speak for themselves but until those numbers come out there's no way for us to know one way or another.

The sentiment of corporations getting bailed out while consumers don't is completely right though, whether or not courts will side on behalf of the people is another story and I'd assume corporate lobbies will win.
>>
>>737439129
>It doesn't really matter
It does matter, because their argument hinges on the idea that raising accessory prices made the tariffs a zero sum loss. They cannot prove that.
Ironically, the shitposts from a few months ago about how Nintendo's stock dropped because the Switch 2 wasn't as profitable as previous consoles just give Nintendo more justification.

NOOO LEAVE MY BILLION COMPANY ALONE!
JFC Nintendo fags have out fagged Apple fags in the last 10 years when it comes to company cock sucking. Pretty pathetic desu especially since both companies treat their customers like shit but they don't care and keeps buying their shit.

...Are you retarded or something?
People who are actually thinking realise it's a lot more complicated because the tariffs were in fact illegal and it absolutely muddies the water.
