These prices are a complete joke. Games like these really aren't worth $50-60 even at launch, they all should be $20 bargain bin titles by now.

The only reason the prices stay high, is because Nintendo simply refuses to lower prices due to their extreme greed, and the tiny core of diehard loyal fans will pay anything just to get another Mario game. No wonder the Wii U has failed, games for it are a complete ripoff, and Nintendo never gives deals on anything at all.

Even the Wii U itself should be $200 max by now, if not less, considering what meager components go into making it. But Nintendo's own greed prevents them from lowering the price, so the sales continue to dwindle to tiny levels.

Really did you read that back to your self when you typed it? What games to you are worth $50-60?

marloc_x3307d ago

Schiller,

I am completely empathetic to your expectation of Playstation titles hitting the bargain bin VERY quickly..

pivotplease3307d ago (Edited 3307d ago )

I agree the sales are horrible especially for old games, but you are definitely wrong to say these games aren't worth full price at launch. Bayonetta and super Mario 3d world are two of the most critically acclaimed games to come out for this generation of consoles. Both are excellent games. I do wish that Nintendo didn't practice artificial scarcity and monopolize their library though. Pikmin 3 came out years ago. It's simply not worth 60 dollars anymore. Go to eBay and it is even higher than the retail price because of Nintendo's purposefully low production counts. That's how you combat used game sales right there.

What this guy said. Bubble up!

superchiller is like the reverse Nintendrone. One can say no wrong about Nintendo and he cannot say anything right about Nintendo. Neither is good if one wants to have a discussion about Nintendo.

Personally, Target's Buy 2 get 1 free and Best Buy's Gamerclub unlocked are how I get discounted Wii U exclusives. These discounts on Amazon are not as good as either in my opinion.

Superchil = Did you just say Super Mario 3D World and Wind Waker HD are only worth $20 ?

I'd rather play those than 90% of other games.

And I own a Wii U,XB1,vita,3DS,PC....

A Good game is a good game.

XXXL3307d ago

Completely agree chiller. The nintendo fanboy mentality is hilarious. They'll gladly pay full price for games years old. I do think the games at launch are worth $50-$60, but those titles mentioned should be in the $20 range by now.

Metallox3307d ago

"I do think the games at launch are worth $50-$60," Then you don't "completely agree" with chiller.

XXXL3307d ago

99% agree how's that smartass

jonivtec3307d ago

You are probably the kind of guy who buy call of duty every year at full price even if they are pale copy of each other with 5 hours long campaing and the same multiplayer map exept 3 building at different place and one new gun.Come one save us your stupid comment and go play call of stupidity.

If you haven't played Bayonetta 2 yet, this sale is a great chance. ^_^

Metallox3307d ago

Ignore "this sale is a great chance" thing and stick with Bayonetta 2, it's an excellent game and it workths those 60 bucks all the way.

TheFirstClassic3307d ago

Yeah I plan on buying it but this sale isn't anything special at all.

General Shrooms3307d ago

Pikmin 3 was released 2 years ago, it's still $60 digital.

TheFirstClassic3307d ago

Pretty absurd, it's the main thing I hate about nintendo. While other great games drop in price quickly, ninty games stay the same. Some of their exclusives are so great that you just have to buy them, but many I ignore because I will always have to pay a high price.

LAWSON723307d ago

Meanwhile Sunset Overdrive a game that sold just as well if not better already has dropped to $40. Nintendo makes great stuff but they are terrible at doing price drops

lemoncake3307d ago

The wii u is cheap but Nintendo games never drop in price much if at all and with these being the majority of the games on this system it makes it very expensive to play on.

Finderskeepers3307d ago

u have to admit tho, nintendo trolls are committed. They keep up with all nintendo related news and bash with passion. Like stalkers that hate their ex gf but can't stop invading their privacy.

ZeekQuattro3307d ago

This. I wish I could find a good alternative to N4G sometimes but I know its just as bad on other sites to if not worse. Stick with the devil you know. lol

Gemmol3307d ago

people forget Nintendo games always hold higher value, its ubisoft games that drop to 40 dollars after 2 weeks

bunt-custardly464d ago

Nioh games definitely up there at the top alongside Ninja Gaiden BLK.

LoveSpuds464d ago

There is a decent fan base for the Nioh games, but still think they are criminally overlooked and under appreciated.

I just bought the PS5 collection to replay them again with all their DLC, a sweet collection for my games shelf for sure.

deleted464d ago

Yea, those gardens haven't been plowed in over 10 years now though. Imagine if they cultivated it, let it grow again.

Starman69464d ago

Amazing what ya can do with a samurai sword lol 🤣

tehpees3464d ago

The honourable mention though.

TheSenorCheese464d ago

originally it wasn't going to be included because of their take on Samus' character. But the gameplay's actually not bad.

Vits463d ago

Honestly, I don't know if we can even blame them for that take. Nintendo's Sakamoto was credited as the writer and from what we learned later with the Retro Studios interviews for the Prime series, Nintendo apparently never saw Samus as this stoic badass that most of the west imagined her as. Going as far as describing her as "motherly".

shinoff2183464d ago

Ninja Gaiden was dope but I don't really care for alot of their games.

Agreed. Great for multiplayer.

meganick581d ago

If they do make a sequel, they should incorporate Bowser’s Fury’s game design into the mix. Think Bowser’s Fury’s overworld where you can find warp points to linear levels like Mario 3D World.
