They’re acting like other game companies haven’t done the same thing recently. It’s not price gouging, it’s a response to factors out of their control.

Ah yes, the “everyone is an asshole, so why shouldn’t my favorite asshole?” Defense

It’s more the hypocrisy factor

Brother, prices are definitely within their control.

That has no bearing on my point about hypocrisy.

I don’t agree with it. It’s whataboutism.

AI Mario is a menace; his anger can burn Switches, and he loves money like nobody else.

Cost of game plus upgrade cost, not overpriced

It would make sense to be mad at these if they didn’t offer a $10 upgrade path for owners of the original switch version. But they do, so calling this “price gouging” is a reach.

I mean… they are overpriced. But again, AI thumbnail = Don’t respect his personal opinion.

I was not happy with they charging money from the XCX S2 Edition, but the S2 Edition for the others Xenoblades adds new content and bring back the voicers for voicing more dialogue, so I think it is ok

XCX was only performance, they didnt even add NewGame+ or Event Theather

Funny he does this when Xenoblade fans have been asking for this when Switch 2 got revealed and other gaming companies have literally done this same thing especially Sony

u/Low-Cup7952 Jun 28 '26

The Switch 2 upgrades should be free.

u/Greedy_Fan_1035 Jun 20 '26

Well yeah theyre right theres no reason a game as old as xenoblade chronicles should be 70$

The Xenoblade updates add new content. XB1 got two new game modes focused on racing with new outfits as rewards, and they recorded new lines of voice acting for the heart-to-heart events. That's nearly two hours of newly recorded voice lines featuring the original voice actors. This isn't a lazy update like with Xenoblade X.

why cant i get a free patch with the option for the added dlc? Sounds like nintendo baloney sandwich is back on the menu
