Greenlight Games and Playrise Digital have today announced that Table Top Racing: World Tour - Nitro Edition will be receiving a permanent price drop in reaction to feedback from the Switch community.
The game will now be available to download from the eShop for £19.99 / €22.99 / $24.99, down from its initial price of £24.99 / €27,79 / $29.99. Further details on the decision - such as the exact nature of the comments or feedback received - haven't been revealed.
In addition to the price reduction, anyone who bought the game at full price can get a partial refund for the difference. If you happen to be someone who downloaded the game early, you can get in touch with Greenlight Games to claim your refund here.
Incidentally, this announcement comes alongside the game's launch in Japan, where it can now be purchased for ¥2500. A further 25% off sale will also be available from today for a limited time in Europe and the USA - an ideal time to pick this one up if you haven't already.
Do you own the game on Switch? Will you be picking it up after this price drop? Let us know below.

I love this style of racing but cmon guys ....should be $10 no more than $15
Yeah, it looks cool, but not 23 bucks cool. Still, nice gesture.
@joey302 Agreed, had this been $10, i might have purchased it.
@Nesstephan Yeah it's a shame Nintendo don't have an auto-refund system. We would have used that of course. We will do what we can for customers - much harder to reach them on consoles.
I really like this game and bought it day 1, have spent many hours playing it. Yes it was a bit expensive
@Nesstephan it's a nice idea, but I'm under the impression that the the types of notifications you can receive on Switch are quite limited. Download Complete, Freind Invites and system level stuff. I don't think it's like a mobile app situation where you can just ping anything.
Is it any good?
The game is $15, without a sale, on PSN - https://store.playstation.com/en-us/product/UP2336-CUSA04838_00-TABLETOPRACINGWT
Why is it any more than that here?
Obviously it hasn't been selling very well or no ?
@Mando44646 The PS4 game is $14.99, the first DLC pack with 1 track and 4 cars is $2.99 and the second DLC pack is 2 new tracks and two new game modes and that is $4.99. So the total is $22.97. So, against buying individually, you're only paying a couple of bucks for the new features because this has all the DLC integrated plus some new features. The Switch's Nitro Edition has an all-new cross-play ready network system (hopefully we will allow iOS and Android players and Switch gamers to battle it out (plans to be tvOS and Android TV ready too), it has also been heavily optimised to run on Switch at 60hz and of course, it now includes the most-requested feature from customer feedback - 2 player split-screen game modes for both Online and Offline racing. Hope that makes sense.
@Nesstephan Ah the news feed. Maybe I can get the publisher if we can do that.
Wow this is a very respectable thing to do, good for them. But let's be honest it's still 40% more on Switch than any other system if you don't get it today on sell.
Edit: Didn't read the posts above apparently it comes with a lot of extra DLC stuff included. So not a bad deal at all especially if you buy it today on sell.
I'll buy it if it ever reaches $9. If not then tough luck.
@BacklogBlues Completely untrue
Sorry @PlayriseDigital did the math wrong it's 40% not 66% if you don't but it today. Or where you talking about the honorable part?
I've detailed the comparative PS4 pricing above. It a couple of bucks difference if you factor in the DLC.
Ok sorry @PlayriseDigital i didn't know it came with all the PS4/Xbox One DLC. This article and the description of the game on Eshop makes no mention of it. My original post will be edited.
@PlayriseDigital is it going down by 25% from £19.99 on (UK) store today? I’ll nap it up if I’ve read that right!
@Nesstephan Yeah but good on them for actually offering to do this. Most devlopers and publishers these days are unapologetic when they rip-off their customers.
