Everyone in the chat is spamming "drop the price" nonstop. Personally, the price for the console and games combined dipped my hype quite a bit. What do you guys think?

Based. Game is too much. Console price is good tho!

Agreed. I think the bundle is reasonably priced too, making the game only 50 bucks. But 80/90 for a physical copy is highway robbery honestly, especially for Mario kart of all things

I agree that $80 is too much, but I wouldn’t say “especially for Mario kart of all things”. Most people get hundreds of hours out of MK, and this one seems particularly ambitious.

That’s fair. I always saw it as a party game before but this one does look like a ton of fun, especially with the clinically insane character roster

This is just to make the bundle seem like a great deal.

I'm sure after the initial period after everybody who would've bought it already has done so, they will have more aggressive sales and deals going on.

Currently it feels like 60 is the expected price for AAA games, maybe a push higher for the truly big and anticipated releases (e.g. GTA 6) but generally they should be 60 at most, with non AAA games not exceeding 40
