I wanna guess that first game is Mario Kart World since it's a download code pack-in game, but I dunno if it actually counts those as digital sales.

But I guess people see the initial price and go "Oh, it's only $10? Might as well."

I mean Wii Play got a lot of mileage. I know that was a free game, but when you compare $10 to the $50, $60, $70 games there? people are a lot more likely to buy the $10 one.

Why is it surprising that more people are buying the $10 exclusive over the $70 inferior version of a game you can buy for cheaper on other consoles

my issue with welcome tour is how bland and corporate and decidedly non-nintendo it is. they could have made it mario themed, or a mix of IPs for the minigames and stuff, but nope for reasons

Gamers reward bad developer behavior at every turn, lootboxes should never have been a success but Gamers can't control themselves, and I'm tired of treating them like poow poow victims.

Nintendo and all other devs are learning their lesson with the boycotts. That they could make wifi itself a subscribable feature, make controller charging a paid feature, and make any other bad decisions and people will still buy their products. Good job gamers, lmao.

Cyberpunk has been outselling it the entire time I've had mine. This is from when I just checked.https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/d/d3f71875.jpg

But besides that, being a tech demo aside, are you really surprised a $10 Nintendo game is selling well regardless?

I've heard it's a good and well-developed interactive museum and demonstration of how the console operates. But you don't have to pay to get into a museum.

Its $10 for a new system. Not really shocking that people might buy it on a whim. I dont have any interest in it, but if others wanna try it, its no big deal.

In the US I would argue you have to pay for a higher proportion of museums than not.

Off the top of my head, the only 100% free museums are the Smithsonians in DC, and sometimes small museums that let you in free only if you're a local resident.

It's probably worth noting that Cyberpunk is one of the few (I think 2) third party games to ship with an actual game card instead of a keycard, which has driven interest in getting it physical. The only advantage a game key card has over a digital purchase is the ability to sell it, and I don't sell my games. Any game that is a key card release, if I get it at all, it's going to be digitally. And I know I'm not the only one who feels that way.

First off its not a game. Its a welcome tour showing off the features of the system. If you dont have a 4k tv you have no need of the part of the tour that showcases it.
