Given people just talked about the high resell value of those games on the second hand market, this actually become a good incentive for the consummer, since they can just trade it for a high price to fetch more games which mean they don't have to pay that much to begin with."Unless you want to argue that BOTW is number one in sales right now, I don't see why it holds in value."No, it is not, yet it still charts high in most retailers list or even the eshop and just like GTAV, sells better than some new games coming out during the year. Note that BOTW 2 announcement also pushed renewed interest in the title, interest which doesn't falter in any way by the asking price.It seems that the conflict in this situation comes from the fact that you just can't understand or are willing to understand the perspective of those who don't share your perspective.

A good incentive for the consumer (high prices) Not really. You seem to forget that if you pay a low price and re-sell it at a low price you ALSO end up not paying much, therefore rendering your argument for a high price moot. This not mentioning people who buy those Nintendo games as digital downloads which pay the high price and have no re-selling options at all. At least when I buy a Sony game at a low price as a download, I don't re-sell it but it's ok cause I paid almost nothing for it to begin with.

Also it's funny that you accuse me of not understanding others' perspective when in fact it's actually the other way around. Others' perspective seem to be the main perspective thus making MY perspective the one that guys like you don't seem to understand...

And all that without even adding the fact that MY perspective is pro-consumer which you seem to be viewing as a heresy. How dare I not want to throw my cash at Nintendo, no questions asked, no limits in quantity asked, what's wrong with me, right?
