Yea thats true and your way is quite a nice way of looking at things. But I guess we do evaluate our purchases differently like I look at stuff like the modes and the length of the single player and etc while you look at how many hours can u get from the game overall regardless of them. Like while I can excuse a lack of modes and stuff, there is a cutting off point for me for the price that I am paying. If Splatoon was $40/$50 cad, it would have been an instant buy but since it isn't and it had quite amount of urks for me, it wasn't a very good deal and I wasn't really all that confident in the length of the single player either.
And while I do understand the whole "online = tons of hours of play," that can be said for all games with online and its not like I dont have fun with cod or anything cause I do. But excusing splatoon while other shooters such as cod (as an example) offers me so much more (before this) just urks me cause of how I buy stuff if that makes any sense. I might have more fun with splatoon, sure but is that "bit more fun" worth the $70 price tag with my prior knowledge about the game with less of virtually everything in all fronts compared to say cod at launch other than the game being very unique? Not really for me (until this news). Which is why I cancelled my pre-order which now I shall uncancel because my confidence in the game has been restored.

So basically it's all about the number of modes to ya then, yet I know you bought MK8 since I've seen you playing it.  |
Neh, MK8 doesn't really have competition since there are hardly any kart racers like it and there hasn't been since forever. You can say that for splatoon too but splatoon so far has been an unproven concept (since it hasn't even launched yet) while MK franchise has been proven to deliver for many years and has been the leader in kart racing for many years hence why I am a bit more skeptical with new IPs in general like splatoon. Specially at that price with all the news/urks around it loll
Edit: Oh and MK also has a lot of maps and etc while splatoon is also missing those at launch :/
