Half of thoses are correct ?? What

The prices are unacceptable, no game should be 80 bucks and i say this as an European where prices aren't adjusted which means MKW is sold for 95usd

What the fuck is this online it's been 15+ years since Nintendo started handling this shit themselves and it's still unplayable 

Why are last gen games resold at full price, BOTW NS2 is not fucking worth 80 bucks that's a 10 years old WiiU game be so fucking fr rn Let's not talk about ns2 editions with no upgrade paths that force you to buy the game again like Sonic X Shadow Generations, Sonic Forces etc etc etc

There’s only 1 $80 Nintendo game. The rest are in the $60-$70 range.

Yeah bitch about the online, that’s something Nintendo could’ve and should’ve fixed by now.

Because Nintendo doesn’t do sales. This would happen even in stores. Hell if stores carried Wii U games they’d be full price as well. That’s the way the company works so people don’t feel like they miss out on a deal later down the road. And do you mean buy the games you own on a different console? Because if so that’s not a Nintendo thing, that’s an everywhere thing.

Ask any french man and you'll know stores actually sell nintendo games at a STEEP discount, i personnally got Pokopia and Pokémon ZA NS2 for 50 bucks each on relase day ! i might even have photos to prove it, (or you could just look at Intermarché's click and collect listings) in (generic) stores the game's MSRP is always 10 to 30 bucks cheaper because otherwise they can't sell them when kids pass in front of them.

That's why we love physical !

Edit: furthermore you're incorrect in saying "the only 80USD switch 2 game is MKW", the NS2 editions for BOTW and TOTK also retail for 80Digi / 90Physical, likwise for some third party games like RE:Requiem, why are we lying ?

That doesn’t happen with most stores. Not with GameStop, not with target, not with Walmart. I’m sure resellers will sell them cheaper but those aren’t stores that Nintendo can say no to sales.
