And there it is folks, the last bastion of the $60 stronghold has fallen.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - Nintendo's First $70 Game

Wish they had new hardware to go with it but, not a big deal I suppose. Games cost money to make, I am more than happy to pay to support the creators.
I remember paying 80 dollars plus tax for Chrono Trigger back in the 90s. Had to save a whole bunch of birthday + allowance money for that. Today's prices are still a bargain for what you're getting IMO.

Nintendo fanboys in shambles. I already see some coping and saying its a placeholder
Doesn't even have the facial and motion capture tech and more modern techniques along with voice acting in other modern games and they want to charge the same as a TLOU or R* game etc...
Guess there's no going back now.

this is the kind of game you don't hesitate to plunk down $300 on a collector's edition.
I fully expect a huge anti-consumer outrage all day on twitter tomorrow if this isn’t reversed /s
No, they'll be cooming over whatever new game is announced and, probably, a new TotK trailer.

Selling old-gen games at new-gen prices. Nice.
At least, Sony offers some unique features for $70 PS5 versions: haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, etc. and even Game Hints and contextual Activity Cards.
These other publishers are just charging $70 without offering anything extra.

I'm sure this is going to be a hot take, but based on most of the stuff Nintendo craps out these days, their games aren't even worth $60. I guess they're worth $60 if you like paying for a half-baked game that gets a meager amount of post launch content drip fed to you over the span of a year or two, but ultimately doesn't end up having as much content as its predecessors.
I had a similar experience for Kingdom Hearts back in the day, $80 plus tax. I'm of the same mind about current day prices. If I really want the game and can afford it, I'll pay full price. For what we're getting, it's a pretty good deal in most cases. If not, waiting for a sale is also an option.
In a market where a PS5 port of a PS4 port of a PS3 game can be $70, I don’t see why a Zelda game that will most likely be GOTY can’t be.
cant wait to pay 7 bucks for games with mobile phone production values like animal crossing
because you are a rabid xbox fanboy who want to trhow shit at the last of us next gen remake,lik or not that remake have a excellent production values,its not using the wiiu game and stuck on a switch cartridge
I wouldn't even pay $50 for most Swich games, shit I have rarely played my Switch. Nintendo tech wise doesn't evolve and their games definitely shouldn't be $70. It's like how they sell their underpowered hardware for a premium to make like 1000% profit foh.
Bastion of $60? Nintendo games have always been the most expensive, even after years on the shelves. If you compare N64 games to PS1 games back then, Nintendo games always cost more, you could get PS games for $40 and even even cheaper brand new....
Good luck, we only Witch Hunt Sony.........
