I have like 1% interest in Mario Kart. It's always been the game that you find 50 of in the dollar store. It was like this $40 spin-off game nobody cared about whatsoever. My friend's kid has 4 copies of mk8 because his relatives wanted to buy him "switch games" and all of them are sealed. I think Nintendo overestimated how much people give a shit about Mario Kart and MKW being $80 is going to show them just that. Or retards will buy their kids 4 copies because they're that stupid that they forgot they bought it for his birthday 4 months prior. Anyway I'm excited for the switch 2 and looking forward to Metroid and Donkey Kong Bananza!
>>1521 Yeah, I'm not buying what is literally a Switch 2, especially at a price like that. Screw you nintendo.
>>1524 Right and it being a packin title until September will make it "sell well" for the $50. I doubt it'll stay at $80 and if it does, it's not going to sell past September and they'll actually be forced to lower the price. I don't care if it's the greatest racing sim ever created. I simply don't care. Maybe if it were free at $450, and the physical cart were $40. It's the B tier game nobody cared about. I mean it's cool that Nintendo is trying something "different" but this ain't it chief. I remember pack in games were free with gameboy/color/advance/nes/snes/n64. I get that there's free games on the eShop like fortnite and I own a lot of digital switch 1 games but this is going to harm their image for a long time. I almost feel like mkw being the defacto launch title is worse than having no games at this point just with how much drama there is around the $80-$90 price tag. It's like they keep digging themselves into this pit and instead of trying to get out of it, they're doubling down.
>>1521 The pricing hike is jewish as all hell. But the real dealbreaker was following Soyny in censoring Japanese anime games. I am so fucking sick of every nigger at a lever of power declaring open season on my niche weeb games. I've been a Nintendo loyalist for nearly twenty years, but this I cannot forgive. Especially from the literal Japanese company. It says something when an American company like Valve is somehow giving these games a fairer shake now. >inb4 Mark also somehow owns this board and deletes this post like the others.
but anon you can use the extremely uncomfortable half controller as an extremely uncomfortable mouse!

>>1558 You don't own a 3d printer? >>1535 I wish we had a good system where we can just lock children out of adult rated games that's impossible to bypass. This way you can have your softcore porn and the children can be "protected" or whatever Nintendo hopes this accomplishes.
>>1580 Nintendo's president already said back in 2019 that parental controls and rating boards were sufficient. Sure, someone putting in enough effort can bypass them, but at that point it's on the parents for letting that happen. The whole point of the ESRB and parental controls was to take responsibility for shit like this out of Nintendo's hands precisely so they DIDN'T have to resort to censorship like this. And yet here they are, and here are all these developers getting screwed over out of nowhere (again), after literally being reassured that they wouldn't be subjected to this bullshit on Nintendo consoles.
I kekked so loud when they tried to justify why they dont lower the proces of old games. >oh our games have value Come the fuck on who do they think they are? Even the most iconic games get every now and then on sale for several reasons, but Nintendo rejects this idea because they think of themselves as some fucking sort of Shakespeare or Michel Angelo. Thats the most fucking hubris ridden declaration I had ever heard, this are head on ass levels that would make Mattrik or Kotik Blush
