2026年7月10日，Evercade復古遊戲生態系統的製造商Blaze Entertainment宣布，其產品在英國與歐洲的價格將大幅上漲。
On July 10, 2026, Blaze Entertainment, the maker of the Evercade retro gaming ecosystem, announced significant price increases for its products in the UK and Europe.
該公司指出，全球人工智慧熱潮是導致成本上升的主要推手。
The company cited the global AI boom as the primary driver for these rising costs.
由於AI數據中心對記憶體與快閃記憶體的需求龐大，導致DRAM與NAND等元件供應吃緊，進而引發成本飆升——分析師將此現象稱為「記憶體末日」（RAMageddon）。
As AI datacenters demand massive amounts of memory and flash storage, the supply of components like DRAM and NAND has tightened, causing a spike in costs—a phenomenon analysts are calling 'RAMageddon.'
Blaze Entertainment表示，他們過去一段時間一直在自行吸收這些製造與運費成本，但已無法承受如此壓力。
Blaze Entertainment noted that it had been absorbing these manufacturing and freight costs for some time, but could no longer sustain the pressure.
值得注意的是，美國市場因享有優惠的關稅減免而未受影響。
Notably, the United States remains unaffected due to favorable tariff reductions.
執行長Andrew Byatt強調，做出此決定並非易事，並重申公司對於「實體優先、精選遊戲」理念的堅持。
CEO Andrew Byatt emphasized that this decision was not taken lightly, reaffirming the company's commitment to its physical-first, curated gaming philosophy.
