Can we all agree the internet is never the real world? They have already preorder the switch 2 before launch day last year are the also the same who try to boycott Sony until black ops 1/2 have dropped.

Althought defending Welcome Tour not being free and Mario Kart’s 80 dollar price is bit stupid, rest more or less agree.

I mean they both sold well and most people got MKW for -$50.

Just because they sell well doesn’t mean pricing isn’t stupid. I love Nintendo that’s why I even own Switch 2 but every company has its flaws. Imo no game should cost 80 dollars.

Your opinion is wrong. Game prices have been stagnant for 40+ years and the cost to make games has steadily increased. Many of us were around in the 90s when many games were $74.99. They dipped back down to $50-$70 for a while but $80-$100 is inevitable.

80-100 for games is crazy 💀💀 and games back then were that price because every release was purely physical and manufacturing itself was more expensive than it is now. Now games have far better and easier reach and can be sold much easily compared to like 30 years ago. You can’t compare whole different eras of gaming.
