You know guys, I 2as thinking, when playing botw, I would have loved to play in cutscenes where link was accompanying Zelda, I would have loved to see more interactions with them.
Nintendo are like woman, You love them for whats on the inside, not the outside…you know what I mean! Luzlane best girl!

@Snatcher Oh yeah, definitely I _don't _ want them to be more than $70, but I'm not going to complain either, if anything like you said I'd just wait for sales, unless it is Nintendo lol...
@Colonel_Mustache Sorry for waiting so long to reply. Nintendo is never going to out there stuff on sale, for whatever reason Lmao.
And it’s that reason as for why I just am not really supportive of nintendo doing it, just because they will never put it on sale.
@Snatcher
I don’t mind the $70 price if the game is big enough. If it’s a game like TOTK or Spider-Man 2 then I am more then willing to pay $70. But if it’s a Kirby game, or something along those lines, then I don’t think it would be worth it.
Sports games should be $20 at most.
I agree so much, nintendo (of course not just Nintendo) makes stuff like golf tennis and they price it at 60, which is definitely overpriced, that is why I think we should be happy that they priced Metroid as low as they did, I want them to know that we love stuff like that you know?
@Snatcher before You read this remember I am a snob when it comes to gaming
in my personal opinion it all comes down to personal perceived value of a video game. Video game prices are inherently fluid and varied and definitely don’t reflect the quality of the product. To rehash some of my favorite games to bash and praise in USD hollow knight is sold for $15 while madden is sold for $70. One is a beautiful love letter to gaming the other is an asset flip of a 2012 game. For the amount of blood sweat and tears that went into hollow knight getting it for that price was a steal while adversely madden is a yearly joke that usually ends up costing more than 70 when micro transactions come into play. Which is another aspect we have been paying more than 60 dollars for the complete editions of games for years now thanks to a little thing called micro transactions and dlc. That can at a minimum push a 60 dollar game to 80 dollars or depending on the game thousands (heres looking at you sims). But there is another aspect to this video game value drops incredibly fast within a year a $60 video game that wins multiple gotys can drop to $20 or less. I say all this above me to show just how varied video game pricing is
To make a point from all this value is inherently subjective I have not bought a single video game this year unless you count xenoblade future redeemed. There were games I wanted to purchase such as yakuza inshin and jedi survivor but In Inshin’s case I haven’t played the whole series yet so I didn’t see a point while in survivors case I can wait a few months for a sale. In fact the only game I saw enough value in to purchase full price last year was xenoblade 3 (I also would have bought Ragnarok but it came out the week before my birthday) . I would have paid 70 or 80 or 90 for xenoblade because I love the franchise and value the games that highly enough to pre order it’s dlc out if faith in monolith soft. Conversely take some random $70 dollar game like forbidden west that everyone loves many people find value in it and are willing to put in 70 but not me because I hate open world games even if its a good game. And then there is stuff like fifa, 2K and madden I have no idea how anyone buys for 70
Now with all that setup out of the way The point I am trying to make is it comes down to the game some video games are to me worth 70 dollars or more while others I would not play for free. I only buy video games I need at 70 wether it be because I don’t care enough or I want to play the series in order so it all comes down to personal taste and I am personally not too bothered by the $70 price tags because I probably wasn’t going to buy most games at $60 anyways so it just gives me more reason to wait for them to hit the bargain bins
I am sorry if this is a disjointed nightmare TLDR; if it’s a masterpiece like TOTK I’ll pay 70 if it’s uncharted I’ll wait for a sale and if it’s fifa I will laugh at it
@Owl1 I went on a rant about video game pricing and didn’t bash pokemon once
This is actually vary similar to how I pick games! I agree with you 100%, and it’s true, we have been spending more the. 60 for a game, almost every game has dlc now, and will I buy it? Yes! If it’s a game I liked! I mean I mean buying xenoblade 2 plus dlc is like 80 ish, and I think that’s more than worth it! Which makes your points all the more true! And the hollow knight example was perfect, honestly I think 15 is criminal, it doesn’t even have tax? Somehow? That game deserves to be 60 with all the work they put into, compared to madden, and I’m not really trying to put down the devs that worked on that game, but it has different intentions, as madden is meant to be a cash grab.
@Snatcher I think of game prices in general as a self sorting issue. If a game costs too much for me, I wait for a sale, or don't buy it at all. I have many hobbies beside video games, and let's face it - time isn't made of rubber, it won't stretch. Therefore I will always be busy.
The biggest contributor to my savings is the fact that there are way less good games now than there were in the 00s, so it's not a financial strain for me.
As for 70$ pricetag, I probably won't buy Zelda until it gets discounted, since I have so many thing to play, it would just gather the proverbial dust.
Which is ok, I don’t think everyone has to be ok with the price tag, and I understand the reasons for not liking it.
@Snatcher
I have replied to you about $70 game.
Why did you intentionally ignored me?
@Anti-Matter Did I not give reasons two weeks ago about why I might not respond to comments? Because if you remembered one of them was if I just don’t have anything thought provoking or just anything to say in general, well since you asked me I will reply to it now.
you compare the price of the games I was talking about to novelty games that include something extra, like skylalanders, your buying the figures the pad and the game that comes with it, ring fit same thing, labo, same, thing. So I guess you can say I don’t think it’s the same thing, so I don’t really agree with the notion, and when it comes to Nintendo, they, never, drop, price. I also said you don’t have to be offended if I don’t reply, it’s not that I ignoring you, for all you know I missed it.
@Eagly Oh I also wanted to tell you! [spoiler] I just met what her name, uh, uh I forgot her name, I haven’t played it in like a week and I just met her, uh, she has wing on her head silver hair. I’m loving this game a lot so far! If I was to make one critic this game seems to have you run around a lot more the. 2, but nothing that’s ruining my enjoyment of course! I will also get to replying to you soon!
@Anti-Matter If that makes you feel better I will do that, because I don’t want you to feel like I ignored you but if don’t have anything to say about that then I usually just don’t say anything, because, what do I say? I disagree?
And you don’t have to reply, it’s ok if don’t have an answer to my comment, I don’t mind. Plus I kinda thought your comment was just a little bit off topic, as I was talking about games, and the stuff you brought up were gimmick game bundles. Like it’s on topic, but not necessarily what I was talking about.
@Colonel_Mustache I’m hoping some time next year! In the meantime a port for galaxy 2 would be nice!
@Snatcher
Well, those are the only things I remembered for $70 or $80 games from LABO, Ring Fit Adventures, Skylanders when I checked their launch prices.
They are still counted as $70 games regardless they bundled together with peripheral or not.
To think about next Mario games will be $70, I expect there is a nice voice acting and completely different storyline plot to justify that price.
I don't want to spend $70 of 2D Mario games that felt same as previous 2D Mario games.
Also, I don't want to spend $70 3D Mario games for keep showing damsel in distress and perpetuated boring storyline like previous 3D Mario games.
I expect something drama like the movie version where Mario can get bruised, the whole Brooklyn get damaged, some dramatic teamwork of Mario & Luigi, etc.
@Colonel_Mustache
Nintendo removed the Mii using from Super Mario Galaxy 1 Switch version, something that missed from Wii version that you can use your Mii head as the planet of Save data.
Don't think Nintendo want to use Mii again for Mario Galaxy 2 Switch version.

Hey I will totally pay for it if they added some extras, because if it was just like Wii U, I don’t think I could do it, But 3d, heck yeah! @Colonel_Mustache please, please!
