@Jeronan

The Wii U was overall a "good" console, BUT you completely left out the following:

  • it has some really good games, a ton of mediocre games, and some outright horrible games (and that's on the first party side of things)
  • you were often paying $50 for underbaked games that never got content added
  • the console was incredibly outdated
  • the third-party support was horrible

I have no idea how you can look at all of that and think the Wii U days were great compared to this generation

@Sindayl That is completely fair. Nintendo absolutely overcharges for their older releases. However, there are two important factors: 1) people are willing to pay full price for a 1st party Nintendo because it’s far more likely that they’ll get their money’s worth out of them, and 2) Nintendo games typically have a far longer lifespan compared to Xbox and PlayStation games, which are replaced by either sequels or enhanced versions after 1-3 years of relevancy.

Literally less than a year ago: “OMG ALL SWITCH 2 GAMES ARE GOING TO BE $80 START PREPPING YOUR DOOMSDAY BUNKERS!”

They retail for $70 on average, and a tennis game retails for that price after it’s predecessor also launched at what was at the time the average retail price of $60 after its incredibly barren predecessor launched slightly below the average retail price, instead retailing for $50, despite being worth like $20. This is how the community reacts: “OMG $70 for a tennis game with barely any single-player content is absurd. Nintendo is greedy and should follow in Sega’s footsteps. Now if you excuse me, Madden 27 is calling my name.”

Just admit y’all hate Mario Tennis, people
