“Say hello to more $80 games” — this framing of “see the bad guys are doing it, too!” Is interesting when the source article never mentions anything about $80 titles. It’s purely about physical retail prices as a result of tariffs. Everyone’s issues with Nintendo prices is in their games, e.g., charging $70-$80 for minor performance bumps of old titles. Meanwhile Xbox just rebuilt Oblivion in unreal engine 5 and only charges $50 to purchase. Oh, and one purchase allows you to play on pc or on Xbox, with cross saves to boot.
