    As long as there’s no micro transactions then yeah that makes sense pay a premium for premium games cuz Nintendo makes really good games. My problem is that they almost never have sales when they do they’re like 10% off if that and the price never goes down for their older games or they don’t even sell their order games that’s the issue

    Amazing. They actually made the PS5 Pro look like a good deal.

      Technically, there’s a bundle that includes the game for $50.

    There’s at least one die hard Nintendo fan out there that’s gonna custom tip $100+ because being a Nintendo fan is their personality. Nintendo should be selling them special loyalty edition consoles for $10k or something and give the rest of us a break.

    lol but seriously this is the first time I’m not buying a Nintendo console on launch in a long time. Their prices here in Canada were already absurd but this gen is just unreal.

      Could be worse, you could be here in the US and get to pay an idiot fascist tax on top of it!

      I have a 500 dollar GameStop gift card I was planning on putting towards this thing, but these prices are ridiculous. I’ll just get my wife a mug instead.

    When Mario Galaxy dropped as the Wii’s launch title in 2007, it cost $50. Adjust for inflation, and that comes out to $77 in 2025. Why tf are people clutching their pearls over the price? Why are people acting like Covid and inflation didn’t happen? Nintendo is staying right in that same price range it always has. The bitching and whining needs to stop.

      Why are all you poors mad that things you could afford before have increased their prices to match inflation while your wages haven’t?

      How I’m reading your comment, btw

        So tired of seeing the same “inflation!!” BS trotted out, as if buying power has remained the same. It hasn’t, at all.

        This is up to you, to be frank. You have to apply to jobs, negotiate and haggle. Your current employer will never give you a raise unless you have an offer from somewhere else, and even then they often won’t out of some weird principle. You gotta do a bit of job hopping

      Wages have stayed stagnant during that time, so it might not have gotten much more expensive in comparison to other stuff, it has gotten more expensive compared to what we have left over after paying for necessities.
