so, you guys know how the nintendo switch 2 just came out, right? it's been making waves with its $450 price tag, which, let's be real, is already pretty steep. but now, there are rumors that it might get even pricier - we're talking a $50 to $100 price hike. apparently, this is all because of the memory crisis and some war stuff that's going on, which is putting a lot of pressure on nintendo.
