THE FUSE

Game prices have been a hot topic of conversation surrounding the Nintendo Switch 2. Mario Kart World, the first launch title for the console, comes with an outlandish $80 price tag. Nintendo’s favorite ape has taken centerstage once more in Donkey Kong: Bananza, priced at $70. Third party titles seem to be sticking with the standard $60 for the time being. Those also tend to actually go on sale unlike first party Nintendo titles (which do, but far less frequently and with far less substantial discounts). So right now during Black Friday weekend, it’s pretty expected to find these Nintendo games are still full price while an awesome title like Star Wars Outlaws has come down by 50%.
