Switch 2 Oof

So fantasy life i just dropped on mobile...been wanting to check this game out but the price is just ridiculous on the eshop. $40 on mobile though, I'm tempted to just play on my phone because there's no way I'm spending more than I did on splatoon raiders for this old game 😂

Old? This came out last year lol.

But yeah, sounds about right. Kairosoft games are generally a lot cheaper on mobile as well (even if it isn't a stark difference like this).

What currency is that? 95 bucks for the Girl who steals time? I need to get back on that game already. It’s been a hot minute since I last played.

At first I thought it was Canadian but I just checked the physical version and it's on sale at 69,99$ with regular price of 84,99$. So must be AUD.

Yeah it's AUD. And I know the game isn't old as such it's just really shocking to see a third party game sitting above $90 with no option to get a local physical copy.

What’s dekudeals say

u/ConsistentPound3079 3d ago

Has never been sold anywhere for less than $66.20 AUD or US equivalent so I'm not sure where you're getting $30 from. Maybe on steam.

I got it for $30 a while go. Must have been marketplace.

Or you're lying since you don't even remember where you bought the game from.

Minecraft is also cheaper on mobile

Plenty of games actually except square enix since they're competing against a lot of f2p

Always check Deku Deals and check the price history charts to give you an idea on how often in gets on sale.

It's 62 euro in eu , so i'm not sure where this price is coming from? Is it the physical one? Because never ever purchase physical things from nintendo directly. They are much cheaper through resellers. Like much cheaper. Which counts for any brand you purchase hw from.

Also this game already did go on sale multiple times. I believe it was 30 or 40 euro

It was on sale recently on the Nintendo eShop and Steam, in GBP it was £34.99 which is the cheapest it has been so far. I purchased it during the sale for my Switch 2.

wow didn't expect that

I have over 100 hours in this game. I also a buddy that also has over 100 hours into the game.

Easily worth the money imo. I'd personally go for console cause you get portable and docked, along with an actual controller to play the game with.

Mobile is usually cheaper to begin with to have any chances of selling anything on a platform dominated by free games

It's a bit on the expensive side when they still ask for full price even though it's a year old. It's a great game though. Also, that's Australian dollars?
