Nintendo somehow keeps finding a way to make this worse

The more Nintendo talks, the worst it gets.
We’re only paying a measly $70 for the Switch 2 version. Just get a third job and be grateful for the opportunity to purchase the DLC at $20. Then you can use the last of your hundred dollar bill for that one tech demo game!
Ya not sure if I’ll ever get a switch 2. I played the living shit out of my switch 1. Easily was my favourite console… Until I got a steam deck. Instantly I have over 1,000 games purchased already and a hefty percentage of them playable.
…not to mention the switch games that are still sitting on my shelf that I just play on here instead.
Morons will still throw cash at them.
I got a hunch that the team behind prepping the game for new hardware just didn’t have enough time to polish the port for DLC as well.
The outrageous prices are provably set by sales and/ or upper management anyway.
I kind of don’t get the urge for buying BotW on switch 2 if you alredy have it on original. Why not save your money on new games to play that are coming for thw system?
lol the Nintendo hate is so odd, 99% of games do. It come with the dlc. Unless you buy a season pass additionally. Why only call out Zelda for something that is normal and has been for a long time?
This sub has Nintendo derangement syndrome
I mean generally if a company releases their game on a new console years after the original game came out it does include the DLC and is like a definitive edition. At least that’s how I remember it used to be when I actually bought console games.
I get the feeling the Switch 2 is gonna be the Wii U with stories like this.
At this point I’m actively hoping for it
Edit: Typo
Switch 1 was too successful, they’ve gotten omega cocky lmao
Average Nintendo moment.
This isn’t even industry standard - charging $10 to “upgrade” a game, yes, but as far as I can remember the DLC is always included with the game at the base game price when it’s been out for a while.
I hope Nintendo’s extreme arrogance and greed bites them in the ass. Will probably have to wait a year or so after launch to know since I’m sure it will take that long to get Switch 2s to all the diehards with money to burn. I’ll be interested to see how it sells to everyone else.
Every single game dev out there charges for season pass and dlc? Every single one
Bad timing on this comment, with Larian releasing 8 new subclasses for Baldurs Gate 3 for free in a few days.
Yes, they charged for it years ago on the last gen system. This type of rerelease usually includes the DLC in the package so that they can go back to charging full price for a game that’s no longer in the zeitgeist and not worth as much as a brand new game.
Yes, when the game is new. Then, when it’s been out a while, the standard practice is to bundle the DLC together with the base game at a lower price.
I’ve never rapidly lost so much interest in an electronic as fast as the switch 2 reveal to seeing the game prices a few hours later
If they released it about the same price, backwards compatible, maybe small fee to “upgrade” a switch game to the newer version, I might have been tempted. But seriously meh. I’m playing my physical copy backlog on my steam deck now lol
I knew it was over as soon as they said the tech demo is a paid title
“Outrageous! They want, what, $5 for a tutorial?”
“$10.”
ಠ_ಠ
100% this was the moment for me. By no means should they be charging any amount for an FAQ on how to use the product.
“Pay $60 to learn that the Joycon uses magnets”
Bravo Nintenbros
Bravo to the one pal who’s gonna buy it and post a gameplay on YouTube
LOL that’s actually despicable
I think Nintendo thinks they have so much nostalgia, and loyal customers, that this generation they really said “fuck it” and are twisting the knife to see how much the consumer will tolerate. I’m not going to be surprised if we see price drops and actual sales (not 10 bucks off a 5 year old game like they usually do) by the time holidays role around. I don’t think they are anticipating the pushback that is happening.
Remember the 3DS Ambassador program?
So the 3ds system then.
Wonder what they’ll offer to ambassadors only. Twilight princess gamecube?
Windwaker HD Switch version finally …
Nintendo’s really making it easier and easier to not buy the $500 Metroid Prime mouse control box.
cant think of another high profile old game re-releasing on new system that would sell the games dlcs seperately lol
