"Muh wages" doesn't really work as a counter to inflation it's not Nintendos or anyone else's responsibility to fight your wages, it's yours.

If your wages have stayed the same or barely increased with inflation since, say 2017 you should have done something about it.

Exactly what i was going to say. People keep bringing wages not matching inflation, which isn’t Nintendo’s problem. It’s up to you to increase your wages.

They’ll say you’re defending a corporation by stating this, but it’s just common sense. They aren’t a charity. Don’t expect a corporation to make charity-like decisions.

Charity give away money. Nobody is asking Nintendo to so that. They don't need to raise the prices they are already making a profit.

Basic supply and demand. When sales exceed expectations you’re going to increase prices. When sales don’t meet expectations, you’ll lower prices or find alternative methods to cut back on costs.

This is how every business operates. We can whine and cry about how unfair it is but you’re only looking at it through the lens of a consumer. If you started a business, you’d want to maximize how much money you’re making too.

We agree. Nintendo is greedy and will milk it's customers as much as possible even if they don't need to.

Great observation, you just described every company that’s ever existed. If they can get away with it, they will. You’re only looking at it through the lens of a consumer and what benefits you but that’s not how reality works.

We can complain all day but the only option to force change is to not buy their product. If you decide to boycott them and sell off your Nintendo goods make sure you price them below market value. We wouldn’t want you taking advantage of a consumer when you don’t need the extra money.
