Nintendo fans keep proving over and over that Nintendo can charge whatever they want for anything they make, and they will want to buy it regardless. It's nauseating to see people defending it, but it is what it is, not surprised at all.

And certain gamers proving over and over again they don't understand inflation as a concept nor do they understand why retail games can't be priced the same as digital forever unless Nintendo is supposed to subsidize $10 cut for the retailer + packaging/shipping costs + the cost of the new cartridge which has to be faster than the old carts, so that's probably another $10 cost right there too (discs is a no go for a portable, even Sony ditched them for Vita). 

Nintendo honestly should have just gone digital only, it's obvious that's where everything is going, but they wanted to be nice and leave carts around, but if that's something you have to have you can't expect Nintendo to eat the cost of the retail margin + the new cartridges as well forever. 

Switch 3 and PS6 are likely going to be digital only period.
