No other prices are currently listed that I can see. Upgrade Pack cost is also not listed. Looks like Switch 2 first party games will be $79.99 USD going forward.

    Been a Nintendo fan since the NES, bordering on obsession when I was a teenager and young adult. They’ve always made my favorite games. Looks like their new leadership has really shown its colors today though. The fucking hubris. I will not be paying these prices. $90 physical games? Iwata made sure games were $10 cheaper than the more powerful competitors, not $20 more expensive.

    Burn in hell, Nintendo. I hope hackers work really hard to crack this system so I can steal your games. Otherwise I’ll emulate them sometime down the line.

        That is true. Regardless, I’m not paying $90 for video games when we’re in such hard times in my country. Steam sales and fit-girl is how I’m rolling into the foreseeable future.

        I’m a patient person who doesn’t need a game at launch and will wait a year to get it at a good price. What stings with Nintendo is that they don’t lower game prices even years later though. Looks like I’ll be waiting quite some time before I play the next Mario and Zelda adventures. Unfortunate but I’ll live.
