    Yeah we’re being royally shafted in the Nordics as well. It’s the downside of us only having one distributor in the whole region and being a relatively rich part of the planet.

    Using Google to convert, these are the prices in CAD right now, all with taxes from a price finder:
    Mario Kart: CA$132,78 (NOK 977)
    Switch 2: CA$909,87 (NOK 6695)
    Switch 2 bundle: CA$1012,35 (NOK 7449)

    Let’s just say I’m keeping my Homebrewed Switch and PC and give Nintendo the middle finger for now…!

      Oh yikes, that’s stupid expensive. Definitely not worth the cost. I think it’ll get harder for me to not buy if they release a new Animal Crossing or Zelda, but honestly even then it’s not worth buying a whole console for 2 games. Probably just have to play them by other means :P
