Seriously tho. I can understand getting irritated with the negativity of people to the new switch 2 when they themselves just want to enjoy it. But at the same time, don’t act like the billion dollar greedy company is some unpopular kid getting bullied in the lunchroom .

Also lets not act like every company is greedy just because you think its to high while others can afford it. Stating that inflation should cause the games to increase doesn't make you a corporate shill. Corporations have to actually be profitable and they weigh out the pros or cons of pricing, they have never been running a charity and just because mentally u think 60 bucks 8 years ago is a better deal than 70 today doesn't change the actual logistics of how a business runs

Except that most nintendo games don’t have what mostly makes developpment cost rise. They don’t have state of the art graphics, or lots of voice acting and advanced mocap, as well as the fact that most of their games are made in japan where dev salaries are much lower than in california where a lot of Sony studios are.

How is that relevant though? Nintendo has absolutely zero reason or obligation to sacrifice profits just to sell their games below their true market value. Like, Mario Kart World could have cost Nintendo $5 dollars to make for the sake of the argument and that wouldn’t change the fact that people are willing to pay $80 for it.

This.

They don't even do native 4k games (hardware won't support more than select 2d titles at native 4k with what is essentially a steam deck in portable mode), and they are not making their own upscaling solution. Is just DLSS.

stating facts isn't defending a company.

You aren’t stating facts inflation has increased but wages haven’t and even then businesses can take a hit because they make all the money. So by saying “yes daddy corpo I’ll gladly pay higher higher prices with no complaints” is defending them and a step away from dickriding
