of the Devil is finally gonna be good.
"Meet your newest client, Counselor."
witches !!
In light of recent events.
ok I got into an argument with someone in my media class yesterday so I’m just gonna say it:
I’m sure the new Zelda game will be great, but no video game should cost $70. “But if you adjust for inflation, this is actually less than what the Wii games were,” cool. No video game should cost $70.
We no longer live in a world where a kid could save up their allowance for a couple months and then be able to buy a video game. Just buying one has somehow turned into such a grandiose adventure it takes all of the fun out of getting a new game.
The only possible benefit might be that, with games being so expensive, people might be more likely to pick up an indie game because those companies can’t afford to sell those games for a lot.
This is becoming normal. I used to be able to buy four ds games for $70. What the hell.
And you know damn well that Nintendo can afford it.
If the game costs $70 it should have a Disc made of gold or silver. And it should come with any and all DLCs free.
if a game costs 70$ it should be 7x as good as undertale
i will never, and i mean this, Ever buy a video game for 80 american dollars. this is a core part of my being. i will not be moved from this position
"ooh ahhh inflation" i wasn't paying full price then either; i learned about emulators and indie games like 20 years ago. Never Pay More Than [adjust this quote for inflation] For A Computer Game
crazy how you can be at your desk deliriously horny experiencing thoughts so depraved and vulgar they would make a doujin artist blush and still like stone faced typing 90+ wpm

Putting today's Switch 2 price announcement in perspective:
Xbox Series X - $500 Xbox Series S - $350 PS5 Pro - $700 PS5 Slim - $450 Steam Deck OLED - $550 Steam Deck LCD - $400 ROG Ally Extreme - $450 ROG Ally - $400
Switch 2 - $450
It's on par/cheaper, and the competition is older.
Not saying it ain't expensive, just saying "It's Exactly What You'd Expect It To Cost"
Mario Kart World being $80 is wild af though.
Other games being $70 is, sadly, the norm for AAA games these days so that's not a Nintendo problem that's a "whole ass industry" problem.
I still think the Switch 2 is too big and I think charging for "upgrades" for TotK and BotW (etc etc) is full-on bullshit.
But I do think the Switch 2 is going to be pretty darn successful considering it's "competition" isn't even really competition as far as Nintendo's market and business strategy is concerned.

I know everyone and their mom has already made this joke but I had to do my own take on it.
Also a bonus because the idea makes me laugh:
the thing about being nonbinary is that you really do start to forget that other people have such strict walls around what is and isn’t allowed for genders. i thought we all agreed that we made that up. could you climb out of the cave real quick and feel the sunshine for a minute.
Wow! What a great Direct! Some really interesting looking games and really cool upgrades to older games!
I can't wait to get a Switch 2! Wait what's that the announced the price?
Never mind, I think in fact can wait to get a Switch 2!
