To add to this: I'm in a region where the base Switch 2 price is already very unaffordable when you compare it with our wages and cost of living. And then you throw in the games... which Nintendo conveniently left out prices of for us (they did list the bundle though, so I'm extrapolating from that). But Nintendo won't care since we're already a very small market. But if they did that in more markets to the point of being unaffordable in most places? Sales would crash. There's a reason they have a cheap region locked variant for the Japanese market.
