You don't just release what might be your company's most significant game in its history and say "oh yeah, *now* we're planning on a price drop."

Bingo they like their evergreen games you can't get a Nintendo game cheap unless it's devils third or a generation old

£60 Switch games = more people buy used.

lol have you seen the nintendo resale market? nothing ever goes down in price.

They're going to get the Switch off shelves once the new one arrives. Nintendo rarely keeps older consoles around.
