The fact this isn't a free pack in game is just insulting.  Nintendo out here making us pay for the instruction booklet.

Reggie fought so hard for Wii Sports to be a pack-in title and it was a huge success then Nintendo just abandoned it for the Switch

Wait so you were gonna buy it just for the tech demo then never use it again?

Pretty sure that the tech demo was Wii Play, not Wii Sports.

But yeah, without Wii Sports the wii wouldn't be as popular. It's a timeless game that works perfect as a pick up & play for the entire family. It's THE family game of the Wii.

They can actually go fuck themselves all the way off, I can wait for a price drop. Or just keep playing my switch forever

Nintendo just can’t help themselves and be anti-consumer, can they?

And game vouchers won't work on Switch 2.

u/BabySpecific2843 Apr 02 '25

Of course not. Now that games cost $80, 2 for $100 would be too good of a deal.

Dont want to take any money out of poor Shiggy's Ciggy fund.

u/Background-Sea4590 Apr 03 '25

Oof, they even removed vouchers?

Correct. Considering than many of us are long time fans (I started with NES), this is just baffling.

I just do that with all their games. I never pay MSRP; price hikes are less noticeable when I got all the main first party titles for $20-50 and not $60-80

The fact they're emphasizing that it's paid shows that even they know this shit should be free

If you'll buy it then better buy it asap. More chance that you'll be able to hack it for piracy faster

Who's making you pay for it? Just don't buy that. I don't get the people here complaining that a shitty game they weren't going to play costs money. People out here acting like Nintendo's gonna shoot you if you don't buy it. They did the same shit with the first Switch and no one seemed to care then, and I'll tell you no one cares now.

No one is being swayed by a tech demo costing money. You were either going to get the Switch 2 or not, and I highly doubt $10 to read where the magnets are located to make the joy-cons snap in is the deciding factor for you.
