>Sony’s upcoming PlayStation 5 console may be far from a launch, but it could be the most impressive and possibly the most expensive yet. The Wall Street Journal reported; Sony has warned that the price of the upcoming console could go up if President Trump’s administration goes ahead with higher tariffs on more Chinese exports.
make playstations in japan. why did they stop making them in japan. nip labor is supposed to be competitive with chinese labor. look at the other shit japan makes that stays cheap.

>Want to rise up because muh PS5 Prices >Can't because it goes against daddy trumps wishes whats a gamer to do?
Noah Diaz
It's ok, President Sanders will fix this before it releases.

>Japan vs. China Gee, if I were a Sony executive, I'd be a conundrum. 1 billion labor in a country with no rule of law (ergo, no transparency or enforcement of labor laws) or a 120 million labor pool in a country that is demonstrably richer and has some semblance of labor laws, imperfect as they are.
Rich, smart countries design the product while third-world countries assemble them.
Asher Flores
They attacked gamers! CHINKS RISE UP
Jeremiah Gutierrez
>It's ok, President Sanders will fix this before it releases. He'll probably keep the tariffs in place, unironically.
Elijah Murphy
doesn't Nintendo make all their shit in Japan?
John Collins
Yikes, got bad news for you Oh nooooo, now we have to actually stop using near-slave labor and cheap easily broken chinese parts
Nathan Garcia
I don't think Bernie has said much about CHOINA, has he?
>Sony lost the next gen before it even got started. Be prepared to pay 1000 bucks MSRP for a PS5. Thanks Drumpf!
That applies to all consoles, including Nintendo and MS. It also includes PC parts.
But hey, amerifats chose this timeline, so they can't complain.
Jason Campbell
Glad I'm getting a Microsoft Xbox Scarlett and Nintendo Switch Lite.
Nathaniel Jones
Trump must be a secret Nintendo fan because after Nintendo releases a console and sells a shit ton, he destroys the console market.
Dominic Jenkins
It's because nobody wants to side with gamers. Even as "consumers".
Places as Yea Forums have made it abundantly clear that to be interested in video games, it means you're a socially dangerous person that might eventually develop into a violent terrorist. Thus, shitting all over this hobby is not only popular (even Trump himself does it, for some reason /pol/ keep forgetting this), but even cheered on, for fighting against what is clearly a hobby for dangerous losers that are just one bad day away from becoming mass murderers.
ANY politician from now on, be them republican or dems, will shit on video games and gamers. Gamers are now at their lowest point in terms of social reputation. Disgusting antisocial weirdos at best, actual dangerous terrorists just waiting to explode, at worst. This is the future you've created for yourself Yea Forums. Now it truly is, all of you vs the entire world.
Nintendo and Microsoft are already looking for alternatives, they will keep their console prices down, Sony is willing to make you pay for an expensive console.
Ethan Young
i havent got a playstation since the 2nd. which version of playstation do you guys think i would ever get if considering one in the future
Jacob Ortiz

Jonathan Torres
>implying videogame console prices are of the utmost importance to a country >implying products from china arent cheap hunks of low quality garbage
Carson Diaz
Only buy a future Playstation if it's assembled in Vietnam. If it's built in China, avoid at all costs.
Logan Ramirez
It's gonna be funny when the DNC HAS to run Bernie and he wins.
No one wants Biden, he's far too conservative for leftists and he's slightly too liberal for conservatives.
Justin Ward
>trump re-elected >he bans all Games except americans How fucked would burger be? Time to get your Wolfenstein Young Blood copy bigot!
Blake Collins
There's a fat and ugly New Zealand girl who wants my dick, I'd marry her I guess to keep playing weeb shit.
Cameron Davis
He's beating Bernie though, he'll fix America unlike that old ass liberal, Bernie.
Jose Murphy
Biden will fix this.
Ryan Brown
It's would be bad since the companies that make the games America loves most are in Europe.
Blake Ramirez
NO APE ESCAPE 4
Lucas Cox
>Supported segregation and pushed a bill thats intention was LITERALLY TO LOCK UP MORE NIGGERS He's dead.
David Richardson
Trump 2020
Tyler Williams
I know how to fix this problem.
Manufactured in China.
Assembled in Japan
Exported from Japan
Andrew Watson
wtf I'm voting Biden now
Joshua Hall
>trump helping no life americans get their shit together by making time wasting games too expensive 4D CHESS
Sebastian Lewis
This is why he's winning.
Austin Carter
I blame the Joker memes
Gavin Sanders
Based Drumpf taking a dump on SNOYtoddlers
Asher Scott
If you think this will help the US in any shape or form you're legit retarded. As has been stated, companies are just looking into other countries NOT THE US, to take up the job the chinamen did before.
China is a threat tho, it's not about "helping" the US but curbing Chinas rising dominance.
Jaxson Moore
WEEEEEEE cry some more mutts
Brody Clark
Hurting China IS helping the US dumb brainlet. And besides regardless of where the business goes doesnt stop the US from setting up shop to compete with more realistic prices.
Jack King
I see now how Trump got into power. People in the US is brain dead stupid and ignorant. No wonder it's regarded as one of the most uncultured nations in the world.
Leo Perry
It's just these guys.
Carson Harris
>it's regarded as one of the most uncultured nations in the world. by /int/?
And what part is wrong about either of those posts? You can just act superior without even attempting to refute Imagine being so spineless and needy for another countrymans acceptance
I remember in 2010 Yea Forums saying that the PS4 would never happen
Henry Morgan
My favorite part is how unnecessary it all is.
>China’s been getting richer off the back of hoarding labor for too long. >I’m going to make them pay for it with Tariffs! >sir, that is literally the opposite of how tariffs work. All that’ll do is make operating in the American market less viable for everyone, furthering chinas own ascent to super power while only being a minor annoyance for China. >unga bunga trade war easy >sir, stocks take a hit every time you talk >REEEEE ME WIN
Aiden Adams
why, was Yea Forums retarded? sony was in financial trouble but not so much so that they couldn't shit out another console and hope for the best.
Dylan Johnson
Sony could spin it brilliantly in a PR statement, though.
"Sorry fans, but that Orange Man Bad guy FORCED this $1000 price tag on it. Please, dear fans, buy our system and sympathize! We're friends, remember?"
It would fucking work.
Oliver Bennett
the snoyboy damage control is real >how can we sell our next console for $1000 without losing more of our fans? >oh yea we can just blame the nazi leader drumpf again ;D
Nolan Diaz
>Imagine being so spineless and needy for another countrymans acceptance Keep supporting your president after they throw his ass and his kids in prison after Biden takes his place.
Kayden Perry
>Implying that I was gonna buy a Censorstation 5 and get nothing but movie games with fags, dykes, and trannies
>PS5 gonna be expensive because Drumpf! Based. He knows about those Commiefornia kikes. Hopefully it fails.
Hudson Taylor
>Do you have any idea how international trade or even just basic economics work? It means work standards get thrown out of the toilet because Jews and Boomer CEOs prefer slave labor over paying actual wages
Chase Gray
And what stop companies from moving production to another shithole?
