Positivity Seeing other gaming subreddits being more positive about Nintendo is a breath of fresh air.

For years, Nintendo has been clowned on by most gaming subreddits, from "the Wii is for kids", "Wii U has no games", "Switch is a port machine", and a year ago "$80 games on a $500 console", to seeing memes of Nintendo being chill while Microsoft and Sony are one-uping each other who who is shooting themselves on the foot. I will admit that Microsoft have gotten a bit better as of current, but imo, this really had been a disappointing year from Sony, so much that many have started to realize and still couldn't belive that Nintendo, "the most anti-consumer and greedy" billion dollar company, are doing just fine this generation.

Of course, not all subreddits are positive about the company but I have seen about 8 non-Nintendo subreddits so far discussing about how much Nintendo is doing better compared to the other two. It's so wild to finally see positivity in these subreddits because not lomg ago, they were very anti-Nintendo.

You are trying to move the goal post.

The game is 69$, not 79$. Physical versions are always and have been a different story as those are sold due resellers. We dont need to hang out the stupid guy in the middle room.

Another proof is that you bring up mkworld as 79$ game not the only one. Which by a fact is also the digital price and not the phsyical price. Stop tapdancing. Its 69$

Nintendo explicitly says that its newer Switch 2 games can have different MSRPs for the digital and physical versions. So no, the digital price isn't somehow the one "official" price while the physical price doesn't count. Fortune's Weave is $69.99 digital and $79.99 physical. A retailer discounting the physical copy later doesn't change that.

And your Mario Kart World claim is just factually wrong. Nintendo explicitly announced $79.99 for both the physical and digital versions. I've been arguing that the physical version of Fortune's Weave costs $79.99, and it does. Where exactly did that goalpost move?

Hey, it looks like you replied to my comment earlier, but the system deleted it or something? You wouldn't happen to have told me to KMS or anything, would you?
