Agreed. It's weird for us that someone would pay $50 for BotW 7 years after release, but apparently the copies are not just sitting there collecting dust. But, it's new for them if they just now buying a Switch . If Nintendo wanted to move the inventory at a lower margin, they always have that option. But in this particular generation, including the hardware itself, the business has been so strong there just has been no need to cut price on anything. Quite an enviable position to be in, and it will not last forever. And they know that better than any of us. So, yeah they are absolutely making their $500 millionth gross margin dollar on Mario Kart 8 Deluxe minus cost of sales, and laughing all the way to the bank. For sure.I'm always baffled by obsession with Nintendo's prices. Nintendo doesn't discount games because games continue to sell at full price. Charging less than the market is paying is stupid.
