filling your luggage full of american blue jeans and then flying them back across the iron curtain to make money exactly yes uh bomber uh vgc has this story i mean a lot of places do that's where i saw it uh that's URL_TOKEN um that the new price is down from uh NUMBER_TOKEN euros does you say euro right is it singular yeah euro oh you could say no you could say both i thought you were like asking like you weren't sure if it was gyros or euros like one of those oh yeah yeah it's mario but yes okay it's mario okay so it's down from NUMBER_TOKEN mario to NUMBER_TOKEN uh mario um and uh a similar drop in uh pounds sterling that's the that's what we call that right um yeah yeah uh to kind of match that drop um that's only happened yeah yeah and it seems like this is that they've uh nintendo was given a statement um on this because this is this is kind of just a a price cut on the base model regular ass switch uh this is before that oled model is coming out and it is not the switch light is just that original ass switch um and uh the statement that nintendo of europe gave to vgc is see here nintendo of europe is changing the european trade price of the nintendo switch console to retailers more than four and a half years after its first release nintendo switch continues to have strong sales momentum in europe after carefully weighing up a variety of factors including currency exchange rates in europe and the upcoming launch of the oled model we decided that now was the appropriate time to change the european trade price of the nintendo switch um and so like there's no i guess europe doesn't really have like a manufacturer's suggested retail price the same way that we tend to have here so it's the sort of thing where local retailers may or may not honor it but it seems like they would um and so i wonder if this is something we will see in other territories as we get closer to that oled launch and but you know if there are saying currency exchange rates then maybe it just has to do more with with that than than an adjustment we'll see worldwide um yeah the recommended retail price stuff in europe is always a little bit fidgety because the cost of living can fluctuate fairly heavily in different countries like you know in france you tend to pay a lot for hardware like um and other places you know software's super super expensive but yeah it's uh it's not uncommon i feel like i used to see this more in europe than i since living here that you would have these big like maybe it's by virtue of the way that they sell the stuff like you said the msrp is like an rrp whatever but you did you tend to have these big like oh it's down now it's kind of out of nowhere so i don't know what i wonder if there's some sort of european law thing that makes it so these big beats happen every couple of years but it's uh that's pretty common yeah yeah it is yes uh and and i think the question people always ask is
NO_SEGMENT_TOKEN
