All my physical Switch games (which is most of them) I got used at GameStop because they were all about 50-70% cheaper than buying new or through Nintendo's store. Even TOTK which I got maybe 3 months or so after release was only $35 used. Games that were even older were mostly $10-20.
And gamestop paid the original buyer of that something like 5 dollars so they could sell it back to you at 7x the price.
Utilizing stores like gamestop can be beneficial to a consumer but the entire business model is built on exploiting children and idiots.
Funny fact: the game stores here are so greedy you can find used game for more than the online shop price 🤷
Where is here for you? I wanna make sure to avoid it.
France.. It's great besides that haha
It won't be so fun when Nintendo shuts down the online shop in 2 years after they drop the Switch 2. Because fuck you that's why.
