We went hands-on with Switch 2 Mario Kart World gameplay, the first new home console Mario Kart game in a decade, and a Nintendo Switch 2 launch game. In our...
Well, with the system bundle it was only going to be $50 more. No way I was gonna pay $80 for it. With the stupid tariffs, who knows what’s gonna happen?
Can’t believe someone actually downvoted you for being excited; I swear, heaven forbid you like something that others don’t.
I’m skeptical as to whether the open world aspect will add to (or detract from) the experience, but I’ll probably end up grabbing it few years down the line once my kid is old enough to appreciate it.
I think it’s for being excited about the Switch 2 and MKW despite it being sOoOOoo expensive. People are butthurt games are more money. Like, yeah it sucks that game prices are increasing but that’s what entertainment does, it increases in price. Movie tickets have gone up. Concerts. Dining. I regularly have dates with my partner that cost what buying me and her MKW would cost and those last a few hours at best.
If you can’t afford it then you can’t. That sucks. Learn to save your money over time and buy it once you have it. If you can’t then that means you probably shouldn’t be spending the little you have on video games anyways.

It looks fun, but that price is going to be something to make me pause

Pause right until the russians figure out how to data dump it onto my pc.
I can’t wait for this game. It’s gonna be so much fun. Switch 2 getting me excited about games again.

I can’t wait for it to be perfectly emulated so that it can be preserved for eternity. Personally, I’m not interested in playing it.
