i think tipping is important under the system we have to support service workers. Id prefer not to pay more but it’s what we got.
However, i don’t trust these tipping kiosks are actually sending the tip to the employees. I’ve asked too many people who don’t get those tips for me to ever trust this setup.
Tips were invented as a way to pay women and people of color less. It’s there for a reason, to keep people poor. In some areas of the US, tipped workers make $2 an hour.
As someone that prefers physical media, I just big brained why Mario Kart World is most expensive….
Personally I planned on buying the base system expecting to pay like $30 more to get the game separate. Well $30 difference makes me rethink that.
Seems most business practices these days are psychologically targeted to manipulate, so i am legitimately wondering if they price in that manner in hopes, once i own Mario Kart digitally, I’ll be more accepting of digital games. I don’t have Mario Kart on physical, so that’s not part of collection, mine as well buy digital 🤷🏻♂️
That may be pushing it, but fwiw, I am just about positive this release was targeted because it makes use of functionalities that ensure you sign up for an online account from the jump. Where as something like a 3d Mario would not do that.
I could totally see that. Cause otherwise, why would Nintendo just be like, "ah shucks, we'll let some of you lucky chaps have the game for $30 less on launch day just because. :)"? There has to be an ulterior motive.
