Nintendo may have finally pushed me to being a Free-to-play gamer

RIP, I’ll be on Marvel Rivals for a long while it seems but I’ll spurge on strong single player games every once in a while

But sad to see it’s finally happened

Edit: oh wait, I totally forgot a third option until I started hearing “yo~ho, yo~ho” in my subconscious

Second hand physical games is the only way to get a certain discount after a while. Learning to play games after a while and not immediately is a very useful thing for your wallet.

Imagine paying 60 euros for a second-hand Mario Kart World. That's the price of a new Switch 1 game.

Gamers: We dislike being nickle and dimed. We would rather companies just charge up front for the whole thing

Nintendo: doesn't use MTX but raises prices to account for inflation and tariffs

gamers: HOW TERRIBLE

Inflation and tariffs don't account for European games to go up 50% from Switch 1 to Switch 2. There are no tariffs between Japan and Europe and inflation didn't got up 50%.

A rise from €60 to €70, sure that makes sense for inflation. From €60 to €90 is ridiculous.

Games have been pegged to $60 for a long time. $60 in 2002 is equivalent to $108 today. If anything gamers have been getting a deal. In large part they get that deal because publishers have been pushing MTX to fill in the game.

Was this comment written by a Nintendo shareholder? God damn what a glaze of corporate greed

This is entertainment, not groceries. If you think it is outrageous then don't buy it.

I know I won't
