You do know that this is a business right? You can't quantify the similarities between apples and oranges because they're simply not the same. Nintendo likes to put emphasis on their product, that's the reason why you have to wait years before they come out with discount prices for their games. For Nintendo to act as if SMM is a lesser game and slap a fee that's not according to their normal charge rate, that would lessen the value they put for their IPs.

And really, why isn't this game worth $60 dollars? It's a 2D mario game that spans 4 different incarnations of Mario platforming. To me that sounds like there's never going to be a need for a solo mario 2D platformer again. Because honestly, there is no need for another Mario 2d platformer after this game.
