Wow, DK is $70 not $80 like MK. PHEW. Oh wait they had $20 DLC waiting for less than 2 months after launch.

I can't comment in the quality of the content included with the DLC as I've yet to play it but it's the timing that's objectionable. Your $70 wasn't good enough for Nintendo. This should have been a free update regardless of it's quality.

Glad I didn't buy DK yet as maybe they'll have a bundle with dlc later... Though probably not. BOTW doesn't. Greed.

Maybe I’m misunderstanding, but what you’re saying is that had Nintendo released the DLC a little bit later, all the sudden it’s less or no longer objectionable?

Pretty much yes. While it may be the same product and same price the timing matters greatly. You just paid them $70 for a game and then immediately they're banging on your door asking for another $20. The close proximity to release also gives the impression it's something that they could have finished earlier and included with the game for added value, or it could have just been a free update to the people who had just bought an expensive $70 game less than 2 months ago.

If this came out in 2026 no one bats an eye.
