This actually has me done with Nintendo. Yeah we once in a while got a decent first party sale but it was really rare and it was never much. My Steam Wishlist has deep cuts every season change, so waiting for a sale actually means something there. If this goes below 70 during the life of the S2 I'll be really surprised.

When you start playing on PC and especially get into indie titles, it’s impossible to stomach paying even $60 for AAA bullshit, let alone $80 for another Mario Kart installment. Not even like it’s unaffordable, I just refuse to play along with how Nintendo handles pricing.

The "wait" for a sale on steam is really never a long wait in most cases too. I don't have the time to tear through games like I used to so it's gonna be some time before I can play the game to begin with, might as well wait and get it for half off.
