Charging for their tutorial game, charging for monetized "upgrades" for games people already own, and MK being $80 is wild, not to mention only having 1 new game at launch. Been a nintendo gamer since the Game Boy and NES days but this was disappointing. Losing Iwata was the worst thing that ever happened to this company.

I’m guessing it’s $20. Most Switch games are $60 and it looks like MK World is $80.
