I think the prices should be $70 for both digital and physical. I think that price point being the standard was already expected after Tears of the Kingdom and PS5 games. Instead of $80 for Mario Kart World they should just charge an extra $10 for the inevitable DLC. Still wild to me how cheap the Booster Course Pass was, maybe that's why they're charging an extra $10 upfront.
Switch 2 itself does not really impress me at all. Nintendo Discord is not interesting, 120fps games are likely only going to show up in the first year, 4K does not seem like it will be widely adopted. Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza greatly impress me though. Glad the Treehouse streams are back to see some extended gameplay.
Also, $399 would have looked way better and easier to justify. $450 makes it look expensive. Not that they'll have a hard time selling them though.
