Hey all you journalist and youtubers that ran the story without sending a FREE EMAIL to confirm about Switch 2 Edition games not having the extra content on the cartridge - you got duped. I sent a single email and got confirmed. FULL GAME ON CART, INCLUDING EXTRAS.

No, the Nintendo Switch 2 is not as powerful as a PS5. Even with all the DLSS trickery. That's not really the point of having the conversation. Switch 2 was never going to match PS5, as literally the mobile technology for that form factor doesn't even exist to do so.

The world's most expensive and high end handheld PC's cannot match the PS5 performance. The idea and why people are excited, was that it just needed to be able to play the same games a PS5 can, at fidelity and frame rates that were "close enough", for most consumers to not really care or notice the differences between a PS5 and Switch 2 version of game, without having it directly side by side.

This is because this has been a very rough generation for many consumers, as PS5 has struggled at times to stand out from the PS4 - with so many of the biggest games still launching on the former generation platform and the possibility of hitting a wall with how much visuals can really impress.

The benefit for Nintendo, is their visuals were still stuck at something on Switch that was below the PS4. This makes a leap to PS4 Pro or Xbox Series S levels seem much more substantial, and then even more so when so many of the games shown so far, are running at 4k.

We all know it's not true native 4k, but for onlookers it doesn't matter how they did it, it only matters that it looks good. If you pay CLOSE attention as an example, you can see in the new DK game a few signs that it's clearly running at 4k thanks to DLSS.

But it takes a fairly trained eye to notice and most consumers never will spot it, let alone care.

While there is a ways to go to feel confident this system can get major AAA support for the next 8 years, it's off to a promising start. The previews are absolutely glowing from people who actually got to play it, and not just the first party stuff. You will see graphic comparisons run around yeah, Switch 2 won't look as good as PS5 or Xbox Series X.

It's not supposed to. It's just supposed to look good enough for most not to care.

In that, I think Nintendo has accomplished that feat. We'll tell truly of course, when many of us get the system on day 1.

Hey Mark, tariffs are like a fee you pay to bring stuff into the U.S., like a border tax to help our workers. Say a $20,000 car from Japan gets a 10% tariff—it’s now $22,000. VAT is different, a tax you pay when buying things, added at every step, even on U.S.-made stuff. For imports, it piles on top of tariffs. In Denmark, a $100 item might jump to $140 with both. Tariffs protect our jobs; VAT just raises prices on everything. Simple enough? https://t.co/pqlzSn8SPf

@realMeetKevin I'm from Denmark, and we do have large tariffs against all countries outside of the EU.

In some cases it can even go higher than 39% depending on the type of item and the cost.

Importing a $100 item from the US does incur a 40% tariff:

$20 in duty fees (this is the same no matter the cost of the item)

Taxable value for VAT = $100 (item cost) + $20 (duty) = $120

25% VAT (a tariff) of the $120 = $30

Total cost $100 + $20 (duty) + $30 (VAT) = $140.00

So if you bought a $100 item from the US you are paying about a 40% import tax. Now they are not technically called "Tariffs". But they are effectively the same.

This is factual.

The higher the cost of the item this percentage goes down of course closer to the minimum tariff of 25%.

Different EU countries have different VAT and duty rates. Denmark is one of the highest if not the highest.
