Nintendo forsøger nu at retfærdiggøre de høje priser associeret med Switch 2

Selvom mange var ret imponerede over Switch 2 hardwaren, så blev stort set alt overskygget af det faktum at Nintendo har hævet priserne over hele linjen, og i særdeleshed har der været fokus på at Mario Kart World bliver det første spil nogensinde der har en MSRP (markedspris) på €90 i fysisk format.

Så hvordan kan det her være? Det har Nintendo of Americas VP of Product and Player Experience, Bill Trinen, forsøgt at svare på i et interview med IGN:

"This is a game that is so big and so vast and you will find so many little things in it to discover. And there's still some other secrets remaining that I think as people end up buying and playing the game, they're going to find this to be probably the richest Mario Kart experience they've ever had".

Og så er der den her åbenlyse tech-demo, Nintendo Switch 2: Welcome Tour. Hvorfor koster det "spil" penge overhovedet?

"It's a pretty robust piece of software with a lot of great detail in there, and for that reason and just the amount of care and work that the team put into it, I think it was decided that, 'Yeah, this feels like $9.99 is not an exorbitant price. It feels like a good value for what you're getting out of the product.'"
