I would say the opposite. they'll pack it in if it doesnt take off

It was probably always destined to be the pack-in game its probably just for early adopters it's separate. Seems absolutely ideal to be installed on the 32GB storage because it's probably like 5 megabytes or something. Come September Switch is $249.99 with this free $49.99 game. Even if the Switch itself succeeds I can see this game doing tiny numbers at retail.

I have no interest in it so price does not matter.

Now, the question of price and how the market reacts is very different. I'm just surprised they didn't pack it in to show off all what the Switch can do.

Meh. Those are all excuses so you'd feel good. In reality you should get paid €50 to play that game.

Meanwhile, some angry forum posters here and elsewhere will buy $50-$60 games with DLC they'll never even touch.

With GC unlocked, I'm getting it for $40.

I think of it less of a video game, and more of a board/party game that I just happen to play on video game console. It'll be good for some laughs with friends and family - like most other board games I happen to pay $30-$40 for.

Don't know 'till i play it.

I should be paid to correct people that make grammatical mistakes and have the audacity to highlight them.

I would say the gif potential of 1,2 Switch is over 50$ .
