EXACTLY! I thought it'd be free, but god damnit, they slapped a paywall on a bloody tech demo.

The way I’m just gonna watch someone “play” it

At Nintendo you must pay for your propaganda

sadcrowcaws.bsky.social•12 days ago

yeah that should 100% be a pack in, like a 'waiting for other games to install on launch day' game

Reminds me of 1-2-Switch costing the same as BotW 🙄

Yeah that should have 100% been a free pack in game. I don't know what they are thinking on that one (outside of we want money of course)

It is absolutely so ridiculous it's laughable. I cannot think of a single person who will willingly buy it.

1 2 switch was paid and it was a glorified tech demo

Not new for nintendo these days

Like who's going to buy that 😅

i literally thought it’s gonna be nintendos response to astro bot but not only it being lame but also paid made me laugh

Omfg I thought it'd be included LMAO that's wild

what you don't want to fork over money for an interactive system manual?

geneticjen.com•12 days ago

Me too. I'm guessing they would have made it free if it was only informational but feel a bunch of mini games justified it

When they did the same thing with 1-2-Switch it was because they realised it was so bad it would make the console less attractive

thedimpsler.bsky.social•12 days ago

I’m still mad tentpole releases are $80 on the console targeted toward children and families.

This feels like something that should be included for free with the console like Wii Sports was, instead they're charging money for a glorified instruction manual for a console everyone figured out years ago.

Heck even if I got it for free I'd jump straight to Mario Kart.
