  • These complaints are FUCKING INSANE. When the Wii Dropped in 2007, adjust for inflation, that baby comes out to $400 today. Mario Galaxy, Wii’s launch title, was $50. Adjust for inflation, that comes to $77 today.

    Also, the Switch 2 is basically the 2007 version of a Wii PLUS a Nintendo SP. The Switch 2, on the numbers, is perfectly in-line with Nintendo’s prices for the past TWO DECADES.

    These prices are fucking consistent. Inflation has skyrocketed, and on the whole, wages have kept pace with inflation. So, these prices make sense.

    And like, I hate capitalism. I hate enshitification. I hate corporate greed. But why tf are people acting like Nintendo isn’t a corporation whose fundamental purpose is to create profit for shareholders? People are literally blaming Capitalism on Nintendo, and it’s fucking annoying. I just want to play Kirby in PEACE.
