| TomaTito said: What double standards. All these complaints about Mario Kart World, and now here with Madden I see none. It can be two things, these video game prices are normalized or no one cares about this case because it is EA. |
These prices have been normal since years. PS5 games commonly cost €80 at launch. Sports games have commonly multiple SKUs at launch and €110 isn't even that obscene when the NBA 2k series had already €140 editions. Donkey Kong Bananza costing €80 for the physical version merely means that it costs as much as a PS5 game.
The point that people miss about Mario Kart World is a deliberate FOMO effect on Nintendo's part. A hardware bundle with MKW that isn't only labeled as being in production for only a limited time, but also provides the game for only $50/€40 as opposed to $80/€80; that's without a doubt a great deal for Switch 2's first must-have title.
Legend11 correctly predicted that GTA IV will outsell Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I was wrong.
