$6.2B in profit wasn't enough: Nvidia hikes GeForce Now prices for Canada and Europe

Typical capitalism. At least there are other competitors. I hope AMD and Intel can take advantage of this news and undercut Nvidia maybe.

Nein! - Doch! - Ohh!

Of course a new service only stays cheap until they reached critical mass. Same with gamepass and every subscription services. That's why I try to subscribe to as little as possible. Oh, btw Netflix does again increase prices too.

subscriptions == Corpo tax for the plebs

Price increases seem inevitable for any service where a company licenses content to stream to customers. GeForce Now is going to be in a constant cycle of content agreements expiring and creators wanting more money, that extra cost gets passed on to customers. Contrast that with just buying a game, buy it once and you're done (generally.)

I still support buying a decent graphics card and a game rather than paying a subscription while also buying the game. Their basic plans costs 10 euro per month which is 240 euro for 2 years which is average cost for a decent gaming card. And best part is you own it. You can get NVIDIA 3060 for that amount. Which is amazing card.

Its never enough. Its called unlimited growth. Its why most of us aren't going to live until our natural death age, but will likely perish due to environmental factors like extreme weather, plague, famine, etc. Its gonna start sucking at around 3C.

Man everybody's hiking up prices. Where's the money gonna come from to pay these, though? Considering thanks to inflation a lot of us have to use that money for more important things like... food.

But line has to go up

yeah, that's the goal of any company. Why is this news?

I think I saw somewhere that one could setup something similar using an AWS instance with a gaming GPU and some opensource app for the streaming part? Has someone tried that? How does it compare in terms of costs to NVidia's GeForce Now?

What a dumb article title

Their 6.2b profit wasn’t from GeForce Now, it was from their overpriced GPU’s.

Products are priced based on their cost/value, not the companies overall profit margins
