Bacon Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Or $60 for both. Like, come on man. Even used shit is going for $40+ reaching 50 which is the price I can get them for new. Just drop the price plz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crispy4000 Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 I don’t think we’ll see major price drops on Nintendo’s games until other AAA publishers sell more competitively on Nintendo’s turf. Could it happen? Maybe, but not with the Switch. You might see a few more Nintendo games officially drop to $20-30 by the time it’s dead. But not many. Buy Mario & Rabbids on sale if you want to send a message, I guess. I’ve already resigned to the fact that I’ll be buying most retail Switch games I want used, once the platform is on the outs.

Bacon Posted March 28, 2021 Author Share Posted March 28, 2021 I just feel like at this point I should be able to get those at 30 each used at the very least. I don't even care about the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bacon Posted March 29, 2021 Author Share Posted March 29, 2021 Yeah. Probably won't see anything until The Blackest of Fridays or Monday the most Cyber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggie Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 I know you don’t wanna pay $60 but honestly those both are great games and will provide you lots of gameplay hours. So they are worth it. It’s not like you are going to buy it and regret your purchase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even want to pay 30 for it. And I would regret buying FE at 60, since I already waited this long. That is defeat and it won't happen. Plus, I am not a actually a big fan of FE. I like it, but I only like it at 30-40 bucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser_Soze Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Early last year I think Amazon had BOTW and Fire Emblem for $30. You missed out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjomesphat Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Two months ago, Amazon had a bundle deal for NSMBU and MK8 for $60. I was in the same boat as you. Owned both games on the Wii U and refused to pay full price, so $30 each isn't too bad. And I never got to play Luigi U so I'm excited for that.

EternallDarkness Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 I understand Nintendo first party games not dropping. I mean it sucks, but it's not like this isn't something we've seen before. They almost never drop, but what is irritating is some of the other games that haven't dropped. I really want Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3. I enjoyed the heck out of those games last gen or before/whever they were released, lol, just simple mindless fun. But MU3 is still full price as well? What the heck?

Amazatron Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 With Nintendo, you have to track the rare sales that come up. I suggest using DekuDeals. Fire Emblem was $30 a couple times.

vaxick Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Always a point of frustration with Nintendo. I hate the tight control they have with retailers and their refusal to allow their games to drop in price as is the norm with their competition. It limits my purchases of quite a new Nintendo developed games as I'm not always willing or wanting to pay full price for one of their titles.

HardAct Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 I know what you mean! I have wanted Mario Kart so bad but refuse to pay full retail again for it. I know it's great but I bought it and lost in the fire and it's really hard to double dip like that with so much to play as it is. I just want it like 39.99 or lower. Only game I have on cartridge is BoTW. I 'look every once in awhile but to nothing ever seems to get cheaper! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLeon Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 I kinda want to double dip on BotW so I can put away my Wii U for good, but a 30% discount on a 4 year old game just feels terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BloodyHell Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Dude, the damn Switch is still $299. Over-priced and nder-engineered, still full price 4 years later. Thats what Nintendo does. Mk8 should be 20$, max. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crispy4000 Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Switch wasn’t under-engineered. First time Nintendo launched a handheld since the GBA where it felt it up to snuff spec-wise for the price. By now it’s certainly outdated, but at the time? It handedly bested the Vita. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BloodyHell Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 Don't get me wrong, im admittedly a bit sour on Nintendo, thats obvious. All I want is a Nintendo console with decent power and no stupid gimmicks like joycons. Or for them to get out of the console business and just make games. (Yes, I realize it isn't happening). 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at Playstation by comparison. Still expensive, and your only other choice is an even MORE expensive version (PS4 Pro or PS5). That’s what Sony does. At this point, PS4 should be $149.99, max.

I actually agree with this. Vita was amazing when it launched (2012, actually, if memory serves). It would actually be pretty embarrassing if Switch wasn’t even as powerful as Vita, lol.
