It is greedy to price a 10 y/old game for 60$. But tbh I'd much rather have a quality and unique game over a game filled with microtransactions and cancerous pay to win systems, or a game that isn't very unique or creative. People calling Nintendo just like Activision, EA, Ubisoft, or Bethesda is a complete exaggeration. While I don't necessarily condone the 60$ price tag for ports, you have to realize that Nintendo games are one of a kind in quality and very unique compared to anything else in the market so people would be willing to spend that much. It is easy to find a quality shooter these days or a story based western RPG, but to find a game similar to Zelda or Mario at the same quality is very difficult to find. Nintendo offers their games at a premium price since they're considered a premium and unique experience you can't find anything else, if you don't think its worth it, don't buy it.

However, this isn't likely ever going to change until people lose interest in Nintendo games. When a bare bones and controversial game like Super Mario Party is able to sell 14M at 60$, that shows the power of Nintendo games.
