Had a whole conversation with my Nintendo fan roommate and it came down to consumers really emphasizing the content value before they buy. An example is that last Mario kart game came out nigh on like ten years ago and honestly for how popular the game series is it sounds like it’s worth $80 of content if you’re a fan or just a family. He’s not a total die hard fan but nintendo has some of his fave series. I’m trying to make the jump to pc or at least a steam deck so I’m not completely sold either way.
My metric is that its worth it if I get an hour for each dollar spent, and at $500 for the bundle, and my time spent in MK8D, I fully anticipate getting my money's worth.
For me, pc games are better because there is sale for older games regularly(50~80% sale usually). Plus you can get regular free games on epic. And in my country I only need 3$ for prime gaming which gives me tons of games as well.
Nintendo has exclusive first party games. Good if you have the budget for it. I'd prefer waiting for a really cheap 2nd hand device though.
Or Get both pc/SD and switch 2. If you have lots of time and money I guess.
