FOUR HUNDRED AND NINETY CANADIAN DOLLARS +tax

FOUR HUNDRED AND NINETY CANADIAN DOLLARS +tax

Why the fuck is everything so expensive in Canada?

+game

dollar tanked

+online tip

because 1 canadian dollar isn't worth as much as 1 american dollar
it's a different currency with it's own market

The Canadian dollar is shit lately

But our wages haven't gone up, so to us it just looks like the prices went up stupidly high.

Maybe you already have high wages? Have you ever compared your average wage with the average in USA?

Could be worse.
When the PS2 launched it was US$299, CAD$449.

>If you let them sell cheap they win

can't wait to play my canadian nintendo switch :)

The pro controller is not a necessary purchase. The controller config that comes with the system is perfectly fine, you're probably just a purist who can't stand having a controller look any different than the standard

>if your economy outperforms your enemies, they win

What a faggot. Not even using the superior Amazon app.

>right stick directly under buttons
>that d-pad

Yeah no. Seems pretty necessary to me.

It's relative senpai. Our high wages don't mean shit when everything is more costly.

seems like something that you can get over pretty quickly

Try 470 kangaroo dollars for just the console you fucking leaf.

The d-pad maybe, but that right stick is gonna give my thumb cramps with the way it's positioned.

everything is more costly because of your high wages

>"I shouldn't have bought this failure of a system! mistakes were made! why didn't you warned me Sup Forums?"

Don't forget the $80 +15% tax game to go with that. Being a Nova Scotian is suffering, can't even afford to drink myself to death with how expensive government booze is.

>minimum 500 dollar investment at launch to play one game online
What a fucking joke. Go fuck yourselves, Nintendo. Literally hacking my 3DS today.

>wanted to get a Switch, a pro controller, and the new Mario and Zelda
>Switch: $400
>Pro Controller: $90
>Two games: $160
>(400 + 90 + 160) * 13% HST = $734.50

o-okay

What are you talking about? I live in Canada and the switch is $399.99 so with 13% tax it's around $450. Not even that bad desu unless you're a poor fag.

>be a fucking leaf
>unsure about the wii u
>never bother because it never dipped below 300$
>excited for the switch
>looks like it has the fun factor of the wii without the gimmicks
>Switch+game+online service is minimum 550
>less expensive to buy a used ps4 pro, psplus and bloodborne
>less expensive to build a mediocre pc
>you can get an xbone and every halo and gears game for less than the minimum entertainment cost of the switch

OP also wants a $90 pro controller.
So do I, but I can't preorder one yet.

Now add one game to that. It's now $542.

Want to add another? $632.
