So unless I’m missing something… the Switch 1 version is the better deal, right?

And wrt to labor: do we think the sales they’ll do on this at $10 will actually recoup costs? It would probably be a better use of the team’s effort, and more inline with the spirit of the title, to eat the cost and have more people experience it (rather than have it compete in its price tier). 2/2

Echoing what others have said, it’s free as in subsidized, but adding that there’s definitely a UX argument to be made that making it free and included by default is arguably a better first-time user and unboxing experience that would improve the experience the console as a whole. 1/2

It feels like the sequence of events is out of order. Is this a precedent Nintendo actually set? IIRC PS5 games have been regularly hittin $70 and we’ve been hearing about “$100 GTA 6” plans for like a year plus.

Yeah, it’s weird! For me it’s mostly been the paid upgrades, game key cards, and weird anti-arbitration EULA/TOS stuff. And basically every big company/console has some version of the latter 2 now.
Figure the best I can do is not pay for upgrades, but game key games, and mail the opt outs.
