Tom Merritt: 我认为任天堂通过提高Switch 2配件价格来抵消关税上涨的影响,同时保持主机价格不变,这是一个非常聪明的策略。他们巧妙地利用了配件市场,因为配件是他们重要的收入来源,而且消费者持续购买配件。此外,关税上涨的百分比并不一定会直接转化为产品价格的相同百分比上涨,任天堂的定价策略很好地说明了这一点。 Huyen Tue Dao: 我同意Tom的观点,任天堂的策略非常聪明。他们充分利用了Switch的配件生态系统,通过数据分析和精细计算,制定了合理的定价策略。消费者在已经购买主机的情况下,对配件的额外支出不太敏感,这使得任天堂可以从配件销售中获得更多利润。此外,Switch 2相机价格涨幅最大,这可能是因为它是新组件,生产成本更高。 总的来说,任天堂的策略通过提高配件价格来弥补关税上涨,这比直接提高主机价格更能让人接受,也更符合市场规律。 Huyen Tue Dao: 我认为任天堂的策略很聪明,因为他们将价格上涨集中在配件上,而不是游戏机本身或游戏套装。消费者对配件的价格敏感度低于对主机价格的敏感度,任天堂利用这一点来增加收入。此外,消费者在已经购买主机的情况下,对配件的额外支出不太敏感,这使得任天堂可以从配件销售中获得更多利润。 总的来说,任天堂的策略充分考虑了市场需求和消费者心理,是一个成功的案例。
