Re: Trump's Tariffs Have "Changed Everything" For Makers Of Essential Retro Gaming Gear

@GiSWiG Pretty sure calling him an idiot violated community rules, and I'd rather not post several paragraphs countering your statements. It's a complicating negotiating technique from a master negotiator who has already made several other countries bend the knee in a short period of time.

If the Retroid Pocket 5 goes from like $220 to $250, whoop dee doo. As said above, first world problems. I had a friend complaining the RTX 5090 prices had just shot up over the tariffs, but a.) first-world problem and b.) Nvidia's profit margins are utterly obscene already. BOM on a 5090 is far, far under the retail cost, and AIBs are given the shift.

Just raise prices a little, not like we haven't already seen massive inflation since 2020.
