I'm curious about how much the switch 2 "upgrades" are going to cost, don't see them being less than $20.
P.S: Fuck this pricing.

Some Nintendo Switch 2 Physical and Digital Games Will be Priced at $80, what's your opinion?

I'm guessing USD paying $79 while CAD we paying $89.

Didn't think Nintendo would be the first to jump another $10 for games, and $90 for physical is nuts.
They'll only be able to get away with it for their absolute biggest games, the rest will have to be lower if they're going to expect high sales.
Not to mention the console is $450, and $500 if you get the bundle with Mario Kart World.

Listen...this means I'll be buying way, waaaaay less games from Nintendo during Switch 2's generation.
I'll likely buy used for a lot of them, but I'll be more selective on what I buy an Switch 2 will just be for those main exclusives from IP I like from them like Animal Crossing, Xenoblade and Luigi's Mansion (if we even get a 4th)
True, maybe it will be that way, but that is still a lot for what I see here. I have nothing against their games, but a lot of what was shown simply doesn't look like its really worth that price.

The hilarious part is that the physical does not even have the full game

I will not buy these $90 games or any console that releases $90 games that look like they were made for the wii u.
They do not cost as much as AAA games do. They should not cost $70. Let alone $90.
I dont let my kids play F2P scam games like Fortnite. It's a matter of principle now. I will not teach them that its ok to buy $90 games. Time to move on.

especially since they're giving at least some of them free to Expansion Pass subs
which does that mean you lose access to the upgrade if you let your sub lapse?

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
My dude, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe was released in 2017, and I think the cheapest I've ever seen it was $49.99 ($20 off MSRP). No way this is getting "heavily discounted" by Black Friday or even by Black Friday 2030.

Wasn't Nintendo Pass that could be redeemed for 2 games, no matter which ones, $50?

The Switch 2 has PS4-level hardware.

Games aren't even $80 on PS5 or XSX (unless deluxe versions)

I definitely won't be buying a Switch 2. It's not about the price because I can easily afford it, it's about principle. Nintendo thinks they can charge $90-80 for last gen looking games, they can GTFO.

Arrogant Nintendo is back. Their games have very low production values. It's a travesty to charge that much.

Rotten greedy shit. Charging $80 for that, plus online, is a real piss take. No doubt it will sadly still sell at that price, and they'll feel vindicated about it.
A while ago too, in a lot of countries, they stopped letting third parties sell game codes and even top-up cards, so you are locked to their store for digital purchases.

But PS5 and XSX games in the US are $69 not $80 and Nintendo wants to go to $80

Also, PS5 and XSX games go on sale pretty fast, Nintendo rarely does sales on their games.

Those are canadian doll hairs. The same game for PS5 here in Europe (Portugal) is 69€ (Nice), and games here are usually 10 more compared to the US doll hairs. So im wondering if Swich 2 games here will be 80€ or 90€. Either of these prices is crazy for a switch game.

Yeah, it sucks that they will be so expensive. But we are all just going to piss and moan and still buy the games. I think we all have to get used to the fact that everything is going to be outrageously pricey in the future.

This could be a one off thing, though, as Donkey Kong is being sold at regular game prices. Kinda like the Zelda games on Switch are 10 bucks more expensive than any other Nintendo game.
This price could also be designed to push people towards the Switch 2 MK World Bundle... where the game is then only 50 bucks (or just 40€).

I never said it would, That's why I said maybe. $50 is my price point for Mario Kart. If it doesn't get there, then I simply won't buy it.

Regardless. Besides, since people always say Nintendo has high quality games, imo, they deserve to have that reflected in the prices of their games.
It's business, not charity.
I'm not familiar with US prices. In EU, PS5 games pricing is €79.99, afaik.

A lot of people will not be able to buy a S2 and it's games with these prices. I'm not sure this is a smart move.
Diehards will cave in obviously, but the rest?

Maybe it just me but I don't judge game's price worth based on graphics I judge the games worth based on actual game itself.
Game can have the most expensive graphics but if I'm not enjoying the game itself then it's not worth price regardless of how high tech the graphics are.

I will pay any price for their games….they deserve it.
