U.S. to place 25% Tariff on Game Consoles

[RolloTheGreat]

Should be a big boost for Xbox?

Maybe.

Brand Fans like GStan would probably buy the next PS if Sony bought up the unsold stock of Xbox One Xs, spray painted "PS5" on them, and adapted an old release of Uncharted to run in "PS5 Enhanced 4Kzors Mode". (and post all over the internet how it's the perfect console with perfect features)



For the rest of America though, PS5 would have to be significantly better than NextBox to merit a 25% price premium. About half of the USA would already prefer MS over Sony, so a 25% price disparity would be bad news in Sony's biggest single market.
