At Launch, hell no. it costs WAY too much. it is cheaper in every part of the world except for North America. For some reason the game is a full price game in North America while it is not in Europe, Japan, Australia, etc. Splatoon costs €39.99 in Europe, 5700yen in Japan. It is so much cheaper over there and yet, full $59.99 (or $69.99 in Canada)

€39.99 is $43.73USD and $54.07CAD
5,700yen which is $47 USD or $57CAD.
$58 AUD is $44.92USD $55.78CAD
Keep in mind that priced above this statement include taxes in their prices while the one below doesn't/
$59.99USD and $69.99 CAD is $59.99USD and $69.99 CAD

 

If I do get it, it will be when it goes in the discount bin or used.

All prices are standard except Europe.

Yeah maybe for like, 20 bucks. No way does it justify a $60 price tag with so little content and features. I mean, no voicechat? Come on now, I could use voice chat on the Dreamcast.


You guys crack me up. 1/3 of the asking price. This shit is priceless!

Edit: by this shit, I mean the lot of you wishing for a lower price, not the game itself.



I bet the Wii U would sell more than 15M LTD by the end of 2015. He bet it would sell less. I lost.

I think the funny thing here is that you think Splatoon is worth less then a happy meal toy.

Have you even seriously played Splatoon? Even if you haven't, the amount of polish and fresh ideas are undeniable anyways.

nintendo learned from Segas mistakes. Voicechat isnt something good, stupid people scream bad words at you. thats not good when you wanna sell to adults or children.  its just good if you wanna sell to people who like to scream bad words at random persons.

No they are not. Standard price for a Wii U game in Japan is 7,700 yen, Australia is around $80 or so dollars. Europe it is €59.99 and UK £49.99 (only £34.99 for splatoon though). Please, do some research before spreading false information.

My post was a joke, evident by the bit where I said the game wasn't worth 5 dollars and that my mom buys me a Happy Meal every day. I have the game preordered and will be picking it up tomorrow. I am sick of people telling others what this game is worth and what it isn't.
