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!

Well. That's what I'm willing to pay.


But why even say it? It doesn't add anything to the thread/conversation. It's literally a worthless statement. Anyone could say something like that about any product in the entire world, but what's the point? "Yeah, I'd buy it for like maybe 5,000 bucks. No way does 4 wheels and some metal justify a $20,000 price tag". Tada! At least try and be reasonable.



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

The thread is asking people if they're getting Splatoon and why. It's in the very title. I explained why I don't want it at full price. You disagree? Fine. But don't get upset because I have a different opinion than you. There was nothing unreasonable about my post. 

Though I find it very funny that you're complaining about me making "worthless" posts when you're writing things like this.

I would only get it if it cost about $5. No way is this kiddy ass game worth more than the Happy Meal my mom buys me for dinner every night.

 



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

Absolutely. So pumped.

The game just looks so smooth and beautiful. And I'm sure Nintendo will continue to support it with DLC.

It was a post mocking posts like yours. Which is funny, because you posted your thoughts right after my "Happy Meal" post. Like you said, you can have a different opinion, but that also means I'm allowed to disagree with it. I'm just really sick of seeing this price argument from everyone.

I never said you can't disagree with my post. In fact, I said:

"You disagree? Fine."

So I'm not really sure what you're arguing with me about.

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.


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 mistake, I thought only Europe (including UK) got cheaper price.

 

So what, US always get cheaper prices till now. :)

US standard price of game $60 = €55/£39 , EU price of game = €60, UK price of game = £50
