80 dollars? Fuck outta here.
Tariffs home boy. Digital games will be cheaper
Yeah, that's the same bs line the gaming industry used when digital was being released. Digital games cost just as much as physical, champ.
Yeah so you can actually the price differences on Nintendo website dude. Digital is about $10 cheaper.
Yeah, it's not any better. It's still expensive.
$70 has been the price for almost 10 years now. I'd say it's pretty normal at this point lol. I've been buying games on sale though unless I really want to play it first day
I don't buy games at 70 champ. Again, too expensive.
It’s Nintendo; I wouldn’t count on this being a foregone conclusion.
100% I would expect Sony and Microsoft to follow as well.
