Drove my joycon to the left, but the drift was too high

It’s 70 and 80 tho?

And as an old, even with this price increase games are cheap, especially with how much time you get out of them.

I remember when Mario 3 was 50$ in 1990.

That’s a 120$ today I think.

Mario 3 was way easier to make.

Only some games are like that, and the ones that are, are cheaper.

I don’t know how you think Mario Party Jamboree is unfinished tho. It’s felt like the most polished one on years - probably since the first one on the Wii, except it has even more stuff than that.

I believe the tariffs do apply to digital goods as well depending where the server is.

Either way, the main reason would be because of digital was cheaper it would cannibalize physical sales.

Don’t know, use internet these days, but in ye old days taxes sort of applied to long distance calls in a way so I’m unsure

My point is the prices are down even with the increase.

Nintendo, unlike Xbox and Playstation, is also one of the few where if things go poorly the management takes pay cuts rather than cutting jobs, and takes risks that justify those reserves if things go really poorly (like the Wii U or GameCube).

And just as an example of how much lower the price of video games has come:

If you want to pirate because you can’t afford it go ahead - with how shitty things are in the world, especially the USA, I’m not against it. Heck, if you need a pristine 1st generation Switch (the one that’s super easy to hack without hardware modification) I’d be glad to sell you mine. I use my PC for modded gameplay anyway.

All I’m saying is the cheap game gravy train could only go on for so long, especially with ever increasing development costs. Nintendo has in part managed to keep those costs down because they’ve kept things at 1080p / 30 (or 24)fps for so long.

End of the day, your paycheck not keeping up with inflation is your country’s fault, not Nintendo’s. If you live in the USA, you’re definitely angry at the wrong people, since Japan isn’t the one doing tariffs and eroding your worker laws.

Must suck to live with that much spite and anger, and not even do anything productive with it even.

Hope you get better.

Perhaps you’ve had a rough childhood, but calm, chill people nether react like you do nor speak like you do.

Especially when it’s about a luxury product like a videogame. I get that you’re mad you can’t afford it - then simple - don’t buy it. I’m not buying it day one either because of the price, I just accept that I understand why they raised the prices.

Like I said, hope you get better.
