With the switch 2 coverage, this is something that bugs me quite a bit.... Not the meme, Nintendo games, by comparison, are worth more than the slop that Ubisoft craps out. No matter how good a Ubisoft game could be, Nintendo has them beat in terms of quality.
Back to my point. The cost of games is insane. The price point for most video game systems is around $500 USD. Whether PS5, Xbox, switch, whatever, they're all either at or near, $500.
You buy 6 games, and you've spent more in games than you did on your console. The fuck is this? We might as well go back to the days when you would buy a whole ass console that could only play a single (or small selection) of games like the Coleco Telstar.
I think they figured out that you make money from selling the add-ons, so they dipped the price of the console and jacked up the cost of all of the games so they could increase profits and shareholder value.
Oh wait.
Agree, I grew up with Playstation up until the ps3. I have never owned a Nintendo console my whole life and the only Mario games I've tried is the O.G back then, but it's clear to me that Nintendo put better effort into every bit of design of their IP release.
I know the Jazz scene would go nuts over a "Mario Kart Lick", and I never played Mario Kart even once.
The only thing stopping me from owning their console is the lack of regional pricing.
