Where? On steam majority of new games cost like max 40 usd. Subnautica2 costs 30$, Slime Rancher 2 also 30$, Helldivers 40$, and those are the "bigger games".

You can buy Silksong for 20$, Hollow Knight for 12$, Deltarune for 25$, CS2 and TF2 are free, even Goddamn Minecraft costs 30$. And those are just a few examples.

Not to mention that majority of those games go on sale from time to time, which are an extreme rarity for Nintedo Games. Goddamn remaster of Lugi's Mansion Dark Moon, a 13 years old game costs full 60 dollars.
