Just remember these companies made BILLIONS of dollars selling games at 60$, this isnt about keeping the lights on or having enough money to make the next game. This is about siphoning as much money from the consumer as possible

The please enlighten me on why the multi billion dollar company that has seen record growth over the last 5 years needs to raise their prices

Cause that’s the point of being a business. You do not exist to be entertained. You exist as a vessel to give them money.

Right so greed is the driving force. All these boot lickers act like Nintendo is going to go bankrupt if they dont raise their prices

If your boss was willing to give a raise, would you decline it just because you manage to tuck a little away in savings every month?

The costumer is willing to pay 80, so they charge 80.

The new stuff costs more to make than the old stuff.

It’s sad people believe this. They truly think that Nintendo is charging more to offset their expenses and not to appeal to their shareholders. You cannot have a flat earning , let alone a down one.

They are upping pricing purely to make more money. If you think otherwise you’re simply just wrong. Period.

Now, this isn’t a Nintendo issue. All the players do this. But to think Nintendo isn’t a greedy ass corporation is hilarious.

I don't think anyone is arguing that Nintendo isn't a greedy corporation, they exist to make money for their owners, but rising production costs necessitate raising prices to consumers so their owners still make "enough" money.

Are you serious?

u/stprnn 1d ago

Yes. Give me a source that says Nintendo has to increase the cost of games because of these "increasing costs".

You need a source for "The new stuff costs more to make than the old stuff."

 

I guess I can tell you to find and enroll in the nearest university in your area.

Or ask an adult, they'll be able to explain to you. Tell them to use easy words.

I mean, there's almost 1k comments on here talking about inflation, rising costs of living, rising costs of manufacturing, disruptions of supply, higher costs on energy, rising costs of payroll, reduction of margins, tariffs...

 

If you don't want to understand, that's on you, but don't think for a second that you're in the right. Keep being wrong alone (or with other few redditors that don't understand how the world works, I guess).

 

edit: hooooly shit my dude, you need to touch grass. How many comments on reddit are you making a day ? That's too much. Try to find a hobby or something my god.

 

why you block me dude ? Are you ashamed to be wrong or something ?

Go find the nearest adult and ask them to explain inflation to you.

Haven't the increased costs of both games and hardware been a big thing online for the past couple of years? I could have sworn I read something about this "inflation" thing that was driving up costs in everything.
