Nintendo leading the way is a bit far fetched. Besides the 80 dollar price tag you only existing on a handful of games, it’s not a new setpoint.
Companies have been “hiding” that price point for years by stripping games of features and including them in the “deluxe” or “ultimate” version.
It was fully expected that one of the big three would finally cement it, at least they’re saying “here’s the full package and this is what you pay for it”.
Wow, you really think that these companies are going to not continue to have deluxe and ultimate editions because of the 80 dollar price point and just include that all in?
Tell you what, I’ll bet a hundred USD that with this 80 dollar increase, you’ll definitely be seeing 100+ dollars deluxe and ultimate editions.
