Who is the most money grubbing console maker in the industry?

Yup. Its why I always tell people who are collectors that are interested in Nintendo that they always got to buy those games. Even if you gotta pay full retail. Because waiting for a price drop never works and those games will just one day poof and you're stuck paying $90 or more. Its part of the Nintendo money grubbing that no one wants to talk about. Yet everyone always talks about demanding physical games.

*edit

Same thing will happen with Switch. If you're interested in a Switch collection you're going to have to go through the wringer.

Must be a regional thing. Here in Europe almost every WiiU game is still available for a lower price than at release, both new and used versions.

So it is a good thing when Switch gets region free, you can import the games which aren't available any more in your country.

as long as it is still cheaper with import costs. I wouldn't be shocked if they actually raise prices in EU to discourage people importing from EU. Nintendo might have made it region free, but they won't stand idly by and let people get a deal without Nintendo getting their cut.
