for many people, $80-$90 mkw is actually worth it and they will pay that, albeit a little begrudgingly. you'll find that they'll still sell relatively well, compared to the likes of $70 games on other platforms that we have seen go down in flames alongside their developers several times in the past couple of years. it's also why, even if gta 6 is $100, it'll still likely be one of if not the best selling video game of all time.
other game companies will try to price their games that high, for sure, and it will not work as well for them as it would for nintendo or rock star. there is a damn good reason why they are as expensive as they are and it's because they know that the quality of the game justifies the price point. whereas, you have other developers who have just blown way too much money on a bloated game and need to price it high in an attempt to make back what they spent and we keep seeing that fail.
@beardalaxy I dunno thing I have notices is when $70 games started showing up and when that $100 GTA6 rumor started too people were saying "I'll gladly pay it if it's good and not live service slop," not saying that people complaining are the people who were also saying that but that is a reasonable take I think. So unless MKW and other Nintendo games are just bad and have live service mechanics then personally I'm okay (just okay) with more expensive games. In the case of MK specifically I think it will probably have way more content than release MK8 but I fear they might dip their toes into live service/microtransaction junk with costumes and stuff.
