Blindly hating every company is just as bad as blindly liking them. How about you look and understand the economy at even a middle school level?

I don't blindly hate anything. I hate nintendo's aggressive pricing. 

It'a a good thing we don't stop learning in middle school.

Apparently you did, do you think the massive inflation and supply chain disruptions would never impact the video game market?

Don't use words you don't understand

Just because you don't understand the word doesn't mean other people don't. Just let me get this straight, you don't think we've had massive inflation since 2020 from things like COVID? The prices of average stuff hasn't increased?

No, I just understand the word inflation isn't a magic spell you can cast to charge whatever you like.

Nintendo will never even see this. The only thing you're doing is embarassing nintendo fans and yourself.

The cost of everything increased, do you think the costs of video game development are magically immune to inflation?

Hmm they sure seemed to be until literally two days ago. Anyway games used to be 20 bucks.

Games were $60 back in the early-mid 2000s and even more expensive in the cartridge era. We are long overdue for video games to increase in price. Even with this increase, video games are the cheapest they've ever been relative to inflation.

"Long overdue"

If you keep using these phrases people will know you're getting paid for this

It's factually the cheapest video games have ever been, and people are whining that they're now slightly less cheap. I hate price increases too but blindly hating on any company that ever increased their price is just moronic. Do you get paid to shill for your "all companies are evil" club? I'm not even saying Nintendo is some great company, just that it's moronic to act like current economic change in the past decade isn't enough to warrant a price increase, let alone with things like tariffs about the massively hurt the global economy

Gcn games were 50 dollars and minimum wage was only like a 2 dollara lower.

So GameCube games were more expensive relative to inflation than $80 games today? Thanks for proving my point
