Should I buy one ASAP in the hope that it will be hacked soon so I'll be sure to have the version most likely compatible with the hacking method, that is the question 🤔

I will be doing exactly this if its ~$400 CAD or less. Otherwise I'll buy a used one and install a cheap modchip when that's an option

Console only is $449.99 USD. Mario Kart Console bundle is $499.99. See the new pinned post in this community to register to purchase.

Yeah, it's a lot more in CAD. Not sure I'm going to buy it anymore. The Direct was a bit of a disappointment to me.

...do folks just not understand currency conversion?

[-] Krauerking@lemy.lol 1 points 2 weeks ago

I do I just didn't understand how separated the Canadian dollar had gotten until seeing that price.

[-] Krauerking@lemy.lol -2 points 2 weeks ago

Nah just get a steamdeck or clone from the other manufacturers at this price point. You will at least actually get a browser then and a better game shop.

I already have one, much simpler to play Nintendo exclusives on their own console.

[-] Krauerking@lemy.lol 1 points 2 weeks ago

Agreed.

But kinda need exclusives worth dropping that amount of cash for.
