Trump's Proposed Tariffs Will Hit Gamers Hard

A study found that the cost of consoles, monitors, and other gaming goods might jump during Trump's presidency.

I’m straight on gaming hardware until 2028

A tariff on the PS5 makes no sense though. It's a Japanese product made in Japan.

It would make more sense if it was the Xbox and it was made in Korea.

Im ridin wit my ol reliable 4 for now and im certain i can cop the Standard as opposed to The Proas long as I can play a new Show,im good

Spoken like somebody who don't know any better. PS4 is ASS.


Just get a $450 digital slim PS5. I mean if you happy with the 4, then do you. But the Ps5 shouldn't be hard to swing.

Its mostly made in china

Yeah but it's still not an American product that's being outsourced.

Steam Deck is about to be the top console of 2025?

No, even if most of it is manufactured and distributed from here there are still parts that are ordered from China. Literally every product in tech has ties to production or parts in China.

even if they completely made steamdecks here they don’t even have the capacity to make them at the same capacity as the bigger 3 console manufacturers.

Okay Nintendo if there was any time to release the Switch 2 you need to do it before Trump comes after yo ass

Truth.

But, by then, the PS5 Pro be like $1500

Paying $500 for a Switch is easier to digest than paying $1500 for a PS5 Pro.
