Some people here still fail to understand that it doesn't matter how much a game costs to be made, Nintendo applies the price to their games according to how much value the company sees on it. And how much value the company wants consumers to see on the games. Even though GTA VI costs a lot more, for Nintendo, Mario Kart should be seen as much valuable as a GTA game.

Yeah I don't see the same logic applied when it comes to things like movie theater ticket prices.

This movie had a budget of $350 million so tickets are $25 while this movie had a budget of $50 million so tickets are only $8

Yup. Budgets are decided based on how big of an audience they're targeting. The ticket for any movie costs the same, a studio making a big budget movie is throwing a big budget at it because they believe there'll be a big enough audience to turn that into a profit. It makes no sense to argue that GTA and Mario Kart, two extremely popular IPs, have to be more expensive.
