Eh, I can only speak for myself, but when looking to buy a console the first thing I look is the number of exclusive games it has that I really want to play, with the next thing beign the appeal (in the Switch case, it sucks) and price of the console itself, never do I pay attention to the price of the games.

I also believe that the price of Nintendo games is fair for the most part and I don't mind them not beign discounted as time passes, if I really want a game I'm willing to pay full price for it no matter if it's day one or two years after release. They do have some greedy decisions like charging $ 60 instead of the original $ 50 for a barely improved port, like DKTC, but those are rare cases and not the norm, Bayonetta 1 + 2 for example had the same price the Wii U version had at launch.

That said, with the laughable concept of the Switch I do worry that them and other companies will try to pass games that were developed with a handheld budget as home console games and charging $ 60 for them 'cause the tablet you're using to play them now is also a "home console" (hello, Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate)
