I have been seeing people complain online about Nintendo setting their first party games for the Wii U at $59.99 as too expensive.

With comments such as:

"I think all, if not most Wii U games, should be priced at $50. It's kind of old technology now."

"Nintendo is going the wrong way. 60$ for a game is too much when all the other consoles are using alleged unique hardware for their game software which will decrease their price."

These people obviously haven't been gaming that long. In the N64 days MSRP was $80 - $90 for many Nintendo games in the US. Square also charged $70 - $80 for their games in the SNES era. $60 is still very cheap for a game, I don't understand what the commotion is about. If $60 is too much, wait for it to go on sale or preorder the game from a store that gives you credit.
