Mario Kart World will be $80

What the ****????
Screw the United States economy right now.

I guess $50 if you buy it with switch 2 is a lot more reasonable.

 

[Noipoi]

Mario Kart World will be $80

I don’t believe you

That can’t be true

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Yep, 449 solo, 499 for the bundle

 

[Will]

Mario Kart World will be $80

I hate being an adult

 

[Noipoi]

Guys is Nintendo getting a little goofy again?

They had a successful console generation and now their pricing is all over the place. Could we have another 3DS launch on our hands?

 

[TheMightyP]

Man we just got $70 games now we're getting $80 games?

Hell no man. This ****'s gotta end

 

[TheCJBrine]

Mario Kart World will be $80

oof.

gonna try and save for the bundle but geez Switch 2 games are all gonna be pricey huh…

 

[Noipoi]

Pokemon Fire and Ice, the new 10th generation games that run at 35fps, launch at $90 each! ($300 for the double pack)

I think the G-word you’re looking for is greedy.

 

[Pink Yoshi]

I haven't seen this much inflation since I tried looking up Zeena fanart on DeviantART

 

[Hex D. Jess]

SILKSONG REAL???????

 

[SneakyLink]

SILKSONG REAL???????

Yes. Silksong is real.

 

[Knight Dude]

Mario Kart being 80 is insane, is that actually real?

 

[ZephyrZ]

Mario Kart World will be $80

Ewwwwwwwwwwwww

Yeah the majority of copies moved will definitely be from the bundle.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Losing my goddamn mind bruh some of these games look great but gold coins died for this and Nintendo are thieving ********, you need to get the ****in digital MK bundle to save so much cash what the **** man

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Live how ithe enegry went from "HELL.YEAH NINTEND" to "maybe I'll wait...."
Im in the "Maybe aill wait" line now

 

[cashregister9]

Man we just got $70 games now we're getting $80 games?

Hell no man. This ****'s gotta end

And the Rumor is currently that GTA6 will be 100$

and knowing how much the industry likes to copy GTA, I am expecting the worst.

 

[Hex D. Jess]

Mario Kart World will be $80

wtf ew

Beyond the fact that I'm pretty broke and have a lot of things I wanna buy this year, I'm not supporting this. That's just straight up gross.

I'll stick with the poor performance version of Legends Z-A thank you very much

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Yeah, im like that right now too. The new Mario kart and switch 2 can wait for a while. Ill.stick with the switch 1 version of Z-A

 

[Z25]

We all know exactly whose responsible for the increase in price and it’s not Nintendo.

The sooner this country can get back on track the better. Unfortunately we might have to be waiting longer for that.

 

[Will]

Nintendo when their genius scheme to sell loads of Mario Kart bundles fails because scalpers slurped up all the stock and resold them for double the price (and nobody in their right mind would have paid $80 for that base game)

 

[HyperSomari64]

can't wait for crying about there's not any sight of Project X Zone 3 during the whole Switch 2 lifespan

out of jokes, it was okay. Also, did no one mentioned the games announced in the Japanese direct.

 

[Hydreigonfan01]

Panty & Stocking S2, Hollow Knight: Silksong, GTA 6 and Metroid Prime 4 all releasing in the same year.
2025 is the year for extremely anticipated sequels that took forever to release I see.

It's just as expensive in the EU as well, you know. So yeah, it's Nintendo's fault.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

The US is gonna get ****ed by Trump's tarrifs the ecenomy has been getting really unstable man, what the ****

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

I was lit and then the price dropped and now Im deflating with the sound of a reverbed slowed down fart..

How much is the bundle in the EU?

 

[KillerCage]

Nintendeal (@nintendeal.com)

Nintendo Switch 2 is $449.99

bsky.app

Price is $449.99

Not my preferred price, but it's the highest I'm willing to pay for the Switch 2. $500 would have been too much.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

How much is the bundle in the EU?

510 euros which is actually cheaper than the 470 euro console and NINETY EURO VIDEO GAME I HATE NINTENDO

 

[TheMightyP]

Can't wait for the price cut announcement

 

[Will]

“Fo-fo-fo-fo-f-f-fff-fo—four fiddy?”

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Mario Kart World will be $80

Are you serious!?!

 

[PLATINUM7]

Doing the conversions, Mario Kart would be about the price of a new PS5 game in Aus. But what helps is that a $AU120 new title digitally tends to only get charged around $AU90 by retailers. Hopefully the same happens with Switch 2 games.

Hang on

Well **** me.

Layton looking at me from the switch 2 on the shelf behind his ****ing 80 buck game

True but there’s a global economy crisis, and the US is a big part of why it’s so ****ty. So yeah i think that is why, when not that long ago they didn’t even enjoy putting games out at $70.

If there wasn’t a tariff war we would probably be on better tracks:

Seeing the reactions though i hope people spam the **** out of the treehouse stream and all Nintendo socials saying how ****ty pricing is. Maybe then they will take the feedback and fix it.

It just keeps getting worse man wtf

 

[Knight Dude]

Yeah, for 80 bucks Daisy better pop out the screen throw it back in a circle every boot up.

Like the 450 price tag for the console doesn't bother me, but ****, first party games being 80? In this economy? *****.

 

[Rie Sonomura]

F-Zero GX alone WOULD have made this direct a 10/10... if stinky Wizard Game wasn't also in it, had to subtract a point

H..huh

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Whats the source on the $80 price tag?

 

[SneakyLink]

H..huhView attachment 400893

It’s basically how physical on other platforms works now.

 

[KillerCage]

Mario Kart World will be $80

I spoke too soon.
$70 would have been pricey but doable, but $80? Yeah, no game should be that expensive without good reason.
