"Should Link's Awakening on Switch cost less than Breath of the Wild?"



Well... ...I personally don't think any video game these days is worth $60+ and I make (or don't make) any purchases with that mindset. So in that sense, no, I don't agree with Ian and Pat that the new Link's Awakening (or Breath of the Wild or any other game) is worth $60 of my money.

However, with that said, if there was any one game for which I might vaguely consider paying full $60 price, maybe, possibly, it may be the new Link's Awakening. Of course, on a practical level, I would most likely wait until a sale before getting it (same as with Breath of the Wild or whatever, "AAA" or not). In any case, I don't have a Switch at the moment, nor do I have any plans to get a Switch any time soon, so, for me, it's all a moot point, regardless.

Also, I will never not hate the bullshit "Oooooh you gotta account for inflation with these prices inflation is totally why it's okay for them to charge so much for games now" argument.

(EDIT) Besides, at $60, Link's Awakening already costs less than Breath of the Wild, given that the actual full cost of Breath of the Wild is $60 plus whatever is the price for the DLC. E.g. the "Expansion Pass" is $20, which means that Breath of the Wild costs at least $80 total for the full game. Fortunately, the DLC for Breath of the Wild looks like pointless shit to me and easily ignorable. (/EDIT)
