Been a Nintendo fan since the NES, bordering on obsession when I was a teenager and young adult. They’ve always made my favorite games. Looks like their new leadership has really shown its colors today though. The fucking hubris. I will not be paying these prices. $90 physical games? Iwata made sure games were $10 cheaper than the more powerful competitors, not $20 more expensive.
Burn in hell, Nintendo. I hope hackers work really hard to crack this system so I can steal your games. Otherwise I’ll emulate them sometime down the line.
90 Euros not USD, I think the physical price is the same as the digital. Fuck Nintendo but spreading misinformation isn’t gonna help
Yup. That is misinformation that was spread to me in the same manner and I gobbled it up. I'm much less angry since watching a YouTube video and learning about that in fact.
N64 games were $70 in the 90s. We’re still way below that with inflation
That is true. Regardless, I'm not paying $90 for video games when we're in such hard times in my country. Steam sales and fit-girl is how I'm rolling into the foreseeable future.
I'm a patient person who doesn't need a game at launch and will wait a year to get it at a good price. What stings with Nintendo is that they don't lower game prices even years later though. Looks like I'll be waiting quite some time before I play the next Mario and Zelda adventures. Unfortunate but I'll live.
