I mean...I get it from a business point of view.


I don't. It seems like they're leaving money on the table. Or more accurately burning it, when they could make some money by selling the older I bought items at a discount.


once you sell at a discount, people expect the discounted prices.

Just look at people here going "I'll wait fo the steam sale

and the arguments that PC gaming is much cheaper cause "steam sales" its the same reason Nintendo does shit discounts and sells years old stuff at full price, they want none of that shit.


Some people. But a lot of people still pay full price for games. Just look at the recent Octopath Traveller. So many bought it at full price that SE had to issue an apology for not being able to keep it in stock.

I'm not saying they should discount it from, hypothetically, $1000 to $100, but it seems more sensible to discount it to, say, $800 before they trash it.
