Is it just me $60 for a Wii U game is not too expensive.

Given that Nintnendo has kept their price tags under 60$ for decades (except for the N64) It's only fair that they raise it to 60. I mean look at the Wii; if they made it the same way as the other consoles, then they' would've antied up the price too because of the more expensive hardware.

Now that they made the Wii U's with graphics and hardware (currently) on par with what we already seen on the other two consoles, the price is gonna take some time to get used to.

Look on the bright side. For us Club Nintendo members; if this price point is confirmed, they're probably going to increase the value of the game's reward points. Thus more points for us to get free stuff.

It was very common to find SNES games costing $70-80+.

True they were common but thats becuase most of thoes games utilized acutal pieces of hardware within the cartridge due the game and console needing them. StarFox was pricier than most because games like thoes used (at the time) state of the art co processors and other components to give the SNES a boost. That was the beauty behind cartrigdes and that justitfied the price of thoes games.  I remember reading about Street Figher Alpha 2 needing a special chip for some kind decompression on the SNES.

I understand why they cost as much as they did.

 

I just wanted to correct you.
