Wait, people are actually buying $80 AAA titles? Yeah no wonder the world will never get better, we need to punish these people who let these companies get away with this retarded shit because they have no self control.
OH BOY NEW MARIO TAKE MY MONEY NINTENDO after just being forced to buy a new console because they intentionally made the game not work on the current console.
Whipped through the streets until they succumb to injury and burn the bodies. Unworthy of a proper death.

@nihilvt mkw is the only actually $80 game, mitigated by the fact that it was $50 in the console bundle.
Plenty of people are however paying that much and more for "digital deluxe" versions of games with shitty little DLC additions and the ability to play it 3 days before normal buyers, which today means they get an objectively worse experience because shit isn't patched yet.
Also, mkw was built for the switch 1, as was donkey Kong Bananza, but they found that it couldn't run those games the way they wanted it to with the vision they had so yeah, they're on switch 2 instead. Nintendo is still telling some third party developers to target switch 1 and add scaling performance for switch 2, interestingly enough.
I think the first "true switch 2" game we'll see is Kirby Air Riders since it didn't start development until like 2022. It's $70 too. I think the only reason Nintendo made mkw that expensive was to persuade people to buy the bundle instead.
@beardalaxy@gameliberty.club exactly, they could just sell games on the PC but instead they sell glorified smartphones they can control the entire environment and remotely brick devices whenever they want, I'll be damned if I spend another dollar with that company. Zelda isn't even that good anymore anyway
