1- Nice Backtracking there

you kept comparing an Entire company to a Subsidiary on an assumption that Sony's Gaming Sector is one of the few money makers for Sony, while its certainly the biggest, its overshadowed by Sony's other Sectors in profits when combined.

2- if you meant a sealed physical copy then no (its mostly around 48$), the game has been out of production and considering its a 500K hard to find game for a system that doesnt have an Eshop where you download it (unlike Wii U) its no different from PS2 situation like 2007 GOW 2 (which sold 4.5M), you can no longer find it officially on amazon and the only way you can get it sealed is through Ebay for over 80$.

as for actual Value of the Game (Digital wise), you can get it in Wii U Eshop for 20$ !

the only reason Nintendo would Rerelease its Games for full Price on the Switch is due to the Switch Cartridge manufacturing cost (Always With New Content to justify its pricing) , i wont be Surprised if Switch 2 Games (or even Newer current Switch Games) went for the 70$ Pricing on its Games Similar to PS5, assuming future switch/switch 2 will require more storage

1.Nice logic except it is irrelevant to gaming side, we are comparing the crurrent profit from the gaming side, Playstation vs  Nintendo :))

2.I asked you about "If Xenoblade got price cut during Wii era or Xenoblade X got price cut during Wii U era, not about the release of a previous gen game on Wii U eshop". If Wii 1st party game didn't get price cut during Wii time or Wii U 1st party game didn't get price cut during Wii U time then no wonder that Switch 1st party game didn't get price cut during Switch time.



1- then compare the gaming side (PS4-Switch) to both companies instead of bragging about whole company vs a Subsidiary, as Hiku said nobody wants this Conversation to be devolved till we brag about market cap/cash in hands (my dads bigger than your dad etc).

2- i bought mine in black friday 2013, was 40$ At gamestop

And no, Nintendo had many Price-cuts during Wii-Wii U era, even pricing some retail games to 20$

And just to prove that 60$ was mostly for Manufacturing Costs, look at the Nintendo Cyber deals (Digital Games only) including 40$ on Xenoblade 2 !
