      Breath of the wild and super Mario Odyssey is worth 60…. Other than that though yeah. Most third party switch games are just downgrades and should be cheaper. Most of the first party games are good, but not worth 60 (or I’m my case after tax games are $90 CND) but that doesn’t matter to Nintendo because people will buy not matter the price. Personally I usually wait for used copies on my local listings so I can save 20-30 bucks

    It's been 4999 at my Walmart since the release they had at least eight games there and no one picked them up even on Black Friday a month later.. Me even 49.99 is to much on this one ,, maybe 29.99.. on release date they had 8 games in the case,,I go to Walmart every other day they still have 8 in the case even after Black Friday.. I actually asked the guy at the counter he says they never sold one..And this is a fairly busy Walmart haven't looked at the other Walmart to see if they're the same price but I would think they are in my area in Phoenix metro area Arizona

    If EA can pump out multiple sports games that are just copy paste little effort put into them and sell them for $60 (sometimes even $70), why can't Metroid Dread be $60? I bought the game for $90 (because Canadian prices are higher) (standard edition, no amiibos), and it was worth every penny

    I agree with what you are saying but the quality of the game being independent of the price of the game. I play Tetris and Sudoku all the time, they are very good games but they not $60 games. Pricing on games should be reasonable, MD is simply not worth $60.

    This game is not like it was created with Mario maker. It has very detailed and interestung backgrounds. Sometimes in the background they will even put hints that a certain boss is coming. They even went as far as making a completely unique language for the chozos. And the fact that it took so long to come out to begin with proves that there was a lot of effort put into this, which is probably why it is 60 dollars. Other than that though, I think you made some very good points, it should be a little less, like maybe 50 dollars

    I was impressed because nintendo allowed you to try it on demo first. Awesome. More games should do that.
    But tuen 60 bucks and i already completed 1/4 of the game in demo? That was disappointing.
    Hollow Knight is 15 bucks and i feel offers more than this 60 dollar game. Thats really sad. That and i hate seeing metroid turn into a unskippable cutscene marathon. I feel like im just running from cut scene to cutscene. Everytime the cutscene happens i feel as if im taken out of the game and immersion is lost.
    Its nice you can skip the scenes after youve seen them already, but damn it just feels unnecessary.

    I've been playing Metroid Dread and without a doubt its definitely worth every penny of 60 dollars. Gotta ask yourself what constitutes a game to be worth 60 dollars, for me its the gameplay and replay value and engagement three things that guy you're talking about didn't mention. Plus Metroid is an IP that's been around since the 80s. 60 dollars. Also a game is worth what consumers are willing to pay for it.

      It's 10 hours for the first playthrough, meaning you aren't including replay value. If I were to add up the time it took me on my first playthrough + 100% runs and speedruns, I would have spent 23 hours on the game in the first 2 weeks (And I'm planning on playing much more)

    • @rezarfar
      @rezarfar 2 года назад

      @@musictorin okay... you know what... I'll humour you for a second, read the below and you can judge yourself...
      you might play it one more time, but unless you're really bad at these types of games, your second playthrough will be a lot quicker than your first.
      Assuming you are on the lower end of the time scale and it takes you 11 hours to beat the first time, i would imagine your second will be 8 hours, 9 tops.
      Now lets be realistic, unless you're a speed runner, in which case those times would make you the worst speed runner in the world, you'll be looking at a max of 2 playthrough.
      Thats IF you even want to pointlessly play the game with no reason at all to do so, a second time, but you'll definitely not want to play it a 3rd time.
      Either case lets just say you are autistic and you want to play it a 3rd time... unless you are literally disabled, your 3rd playthrough will take no more than 5 hours MAX...
      So to summarise all this, to do 3 playthrough on Dread should take no more than 25 hours, 2 of those playthroughs are absolutely pointless, in fact the 3rd is autism territory, unless you're a speed runner, which i doubt.
      Still 25 hours for $60 is a stretch... and even getting to the 25 hours to begin with is questionable anyway...
