Nintendo Switch 2 Games Will Cost Up To $80 For Digital, $90 For Physical
Nintendo has fucking balls charging above current premium with graphics 15 years out of date and games that are mostly asset flips. Easiest skip of my life but it will still probably sell gangbusters.

Enshittification I think

so many gamers are ultracucked this is so sad

hell yes i cant wait for donkey kong 504 and mario 978

>>41039
its called having money

>>41037
Announcement was filled with re-releases. Pretty sad state of renterism.

the new Donkey Kong and the new open world mario kart are looking 🔥, though.

They made Donkey Kong into DEI Kong

>>41047
That slop will be $90 plus tip, sir.

>>41049
Apparently miyamoto hated the Rare version of donkey kong

>>41049 i don't get the joke

TRVTH NVKE WARNING:
80 bucks is a reasonable price for physical high budget games, if you take inflation into consideration. 90 is indenfensible though

>>41063
okay rockstar

>>41066
And? The trend says they should be like $30 now because consumer electronics get cheaper.

>$10 more for """"""""""physical"""""""""" games

>>41066
ok now do it adjusted for average income and purchasing power

>>41067
but unlike electronics, games are more expensive to make now, not cheaper

if you are a zoomer and you don't know what torrenting is or how to do it, learn NOW

I'm glad I dont feel the urge to buy nu products anymore. If I'm ever able to emulate Switch 2 I'll try some games, sure.

>>41037
You're going to Brazil.
>games that are mostly asset flips
But Metroid Prime 4.
>>41054
Every non-Westaboo Jap seems to hate American games. Kojima should make Nintendo games instead.

>>41072
there's no good switch emulators tho

lets be honest here, all these prices will usher in a new era of piracy. GTA 6 will cost up to 120$ and soon the industry will follow. games are luxury now, and hope more people study cracking denuvo shit

>>41078
lolllllllll ok nintendo, switch has been emulated for years now

Haven't purchased a full price game since the dreamcast. At this point you have no excuse to get at least a shitty pc for steam sales and piracy. There are so many good games that don't even need a dedicated GPU.

>>41088
I could see r* making gta6 subscription only

>>41078
Ahah wrong
>>41071
Whose fault is that?

>>41104
publishers wanting to stand out with crazy grayphx, and consumers demanding crazy grayphx and obama

>>41107
Correct, though I wonder if consumers even "demand" crazy graphics these days. Thats a whole discussion in itself but I think the peak of video game graphics is behind us


I propably do the same i did with my current switch
>Get v1 version
>Install hekate
>Download everything on nsw2u
The switch is so easy to jailbreak, just cant make it up. It only really matters how long it takes for the switch 2 to get hacked

>>41411
Avast me matey.
Download ze bloody qbittorrent.
It be a torrenting device and connect ye with ze pirates of this land.

Aftar downloadin the torrent, install arrr python search engine, it be a bit wonky mate but me ship thefilestealer she's rite.

Download a ryujinx emulator, the pirate's nintendo switch mate. She exists in the depths of davy jones' storage device.

jack's black pearl is nothing like thefilestealer mate, finally you must make your first plunder yourself, scour the seas of the torrent mate and plunder yeself a rom of your choosing.

it doesnt even go on the fucking card lmao what an absolute scam. you have to insert the key to play after downloading the game, the worst of both worlds.

Nintendo emulator devs are so autistic that I wouldn't be surprised if there's a Switch 2 emulator pre-launch.

nintendo should raise the prices

>>41065
>>41068
the duality of Guybrush

If game devs are going to have a decent and dignified work environment and pay, while also maintaining the level of complexity modern AAA games have, then the games must cost more than $60.

Now, will studio execs start treating their staff right after raising prices? Probably not. But in a just world, AAA games would cost more than $60.

jailbreaking the switch is a pain in the ass

This is NOT how this is supposed to go!

The standarization of the "Indie" model has been a mistake for gaming in general and for small devs trying to survive in a saturated market

millions of Indie games yet "TikTok" and "streamer" games dominate the market, it's the ecquivalent of the "american dream" for game devs, it keeps them from organizing with other devs and promotes a hyper individualistic mentality that you can make a game that will "make it" in a sea of indieslop on itch.io while the 3th job simulator game about picking up trash gets a sequel that streamers get millions of people to buy:

I want competitive games, With decent graphics, Made by people who organize to share the earnings, Paid to take their work seriously, with proper monetization to avoid staleness, And i'm not kidding.

people act like "expansion packs" weren't a thing before

>>42071
Also AAA games should be abolished.

Damn leftypol fell for the $90 meme?

>>43033

*indie

>mostly asset flips.
lmao they are charging premium prices for remasters, not even asset flips

who the fuck has the money for this

>>43039
TotK was an asset flip sold for $70 USD and they are already selling a remaster of the asset flip for $80 USD. Nintendo has always been bad about this shit but this is a whole new level lmao.

>>41069

This honestly the part that upsets me the most.

>>41069
ngl i dont give a shit. like collectors will still proudly litter their shelves with games they are NOT gonna play either way

>>43051
You should cause Nintendo, Sony or Microsoft can even up in the grave yard like Atari, Commodore, Sega and Coleco. Then you have old store fronts being abandoned even by companies that are still in the video game market. Physical media has the advantage that the manufacture doesn't have to exist for the platform to read the data. Even when looking at jailbreaking, dumping physical copies is done first as getting a PS5 to just read the optical drive and push it out the ethernet port is easier then unecypting the HD.
