Europoors are getting 90€ per physical game? Have mercy Big N.

Walmart prices for physical games

Mario Kart, Mario Party, ToTK, Kirby = $80

DK, BoTW = $70

SFVI = $60

Bravely Default = $40

I know it's an HD remaster of a 3DS game, but that $40 for Bravely Default is very reasonable compared to the rest. Still don't know why it's not a cross-gen game. 

Hold up

Bravely Default is $40!?

Might get that this year - probably wait for the holidays since Square Enix discounts their games so quick (unless this is published by Nintendo).

Considering these are re-release it is definitely not the most enviable products for newcomers into the ecosystem. They're trying to set a base of expectations for consumers where physical games will be at 70 min. - 80 max.

Though like on PS5 most of the money will be made through the upgrade pack from people who already bought the games.

For all intent and purpose. The Kirby and The Forgotten Land is the base game price + DLC add on. 

But it's a 20$ DLC for an already existing buyer. This is decent imo. 

Same for Jamboree. 

Though BOTW and TOTK are just straight up hardware upgrade without the added content ....

Before saying anything about the prices, I prefer to wait for the first sales numbers.

They'll probably tell us how people will actually react to the price tags.

Nintendo fans keep proving over and over that Nintendo can charge whatever they want for anything they make, and they will want to buy it regardless. It's nauseating to see people defending it, but it is what it is, not surprised at all.

And certain gamers proving over and over again they don't understand inflation as a concept nor do they understand why retail games can't be priced the same as digital forever unless Nintendo is supposed to subsidize $10 cut for the retailer + packaging/shipping costs + the cost of the new cartridge which has to be faster than the old carts, so that's probably another $10 cost right there too (discs is a no go for a portable, even Sony ditched them for Vita). 

Nintendo honestly should have just gone digital only, it's obvious that's where everything is going, but they wanted to be nice and leave carts around, but if that's something you have to have you can't expect Nintendo to eat the cost of the retail margin + the new cartridges as well forever. 

Switch 3 and PS6 are likely going to be digital only period.
