Gaming News: Nintendo Switch 2’s Mario Kart World Price Shocks Gamers
When Nintendo unveiled that Mario Kart World would carry a price tag usually reserved for special edition releases, there was a collective intake of breath. “It’s one thing when other publishers do it,” one commenter sighed, “but with Nintendo, you can bet your last dollar that it won’t go on sale until the Switch 3 is nearly here.” This announcement seems to mark a significant change in power dynamics within the gaming industry, where prices have traditionally been influenced by trends established by larger corporations. Many players believed that $70 was the standard for new games, but it appears Nintendo aims to redefine the market, whether positively or negatively.
