Yes. They need to AND want to. Because they’re a business. Their entire existence is to make money, not give cheap toys to people whining on the internet.
They have an obligation to their business and to grow their market and brand, lest they stagnate and decline. That’s what businesses HAVE to do to survive. They aren’t worried about NEETs and their inability to not spend $20 extra on games they can’t stop themselves from buying.
its both. they're a business so they want more revenue. Countless luxury products have massive profit margins.
Being rich doesn't obligate them to give you cheap products. Lamborghini's net worth is in the billions, that doesn't mean they own you cheap luxury vehicles. Sony is worth 150 billion. They aren't obligated to sell you cheaper anything.
Do you want to have a conversation or are you just here to troll and ignore the point?
Asking this makes you more of a troll than me. You pretending to not get the most simple and basic concepts of business and finance makes you a troll. The fact that you're getting smug that you have to pay $20 extra for a toy makes you a troll.
And your explanation is faulty. Does Nintendo need to raise its prices? Did the staff suddenly stop getting paid?
Is this you? lmao. You're delusional and don't understand global economics. It's hypocritical for gamers to get so upset about nintedo when EVERY other company is screwing you over 100x worse, but suddenly Nintendo is the evil company.
Look, you can be pissed about nintendos prices increasing, but you all need to put that much energy is complaining about other things. And no don't tell me you do, because the entirety of reddit is complaining about this issue. Go complain about your costs of eggs instead please.

No. I explained why the industry is shifting its prices. Just reread my post if you need the information again.
