Nintendo forklarer hvorfor The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom koster $70

Nintendo holder endnu stædigt fast i, at de ikke fremadrettet vil prissætte alle deres store eksklusiver på $70 i stedet for de traditionelle $60, som så mange ellers har gjort i løbet af de seneste par år.

Så hvorfor koster The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom mere end andre store Switch-titler? I et interview med AP News fortæller Nintendo of America CEO Doug Bowser, at det er fodi at spillet leverer mere end Nintendo normalt kan.

"We look at what the game has to offer. I think fans will find this is an incredibly full, deeply immersive experience. The price point reflects the type of experience that fans can expect when it comes to playing this particular game. This isn't a price point that we'll necessarily have on all our titles. It's actually a fairly common pricing model either here or in Europe or other parts of the world, where the pricing may vary depending on the game itself."

Det virker heller ikke som om at Bowser er afvisende overfor at bruge en prissætning på $70 igen.
