Costco is having to heavily discount them as they are not selling and they still have inventory from months ago.Why aren't Switch 2 fans buying their exclusives?
That's still twice as much as you should pay for one video game.
>>736688887Air Riders did way better than Air RIde, and Prime 4 is one it's way to becoming the best selling in the Prime series. Cope.
>>736689049>Prime 4 is one it's way to becoming the best selling in the Prime series.Holy copium, neither version even sold over 1m
Vinny streamed MK8 on and off for years. He dropped Air Riders after a week.
>>736689117Vinny's a fucking faggot. Harman Smith plays way more games than he does.
>>736688887HAHAHAH TENDIES DON'T BUY GAMES
>>736688887Switch 2 games seem to usually not have legs if they're not stapled to systems.
>>736688887>why is nobody buying a lazy port of a Gamecube game that sold like ass and a sequel in a series that has historically underperformed and was rebooted at least twice?It's a mystery.
Hey you shut the fuck up about Air Riders right now you little bitch. That game is the one and only reason to own a Switch 2.
>this twitter screenshot means its flopping!Aren't you tired of posting this shit every month since the Switch 2 came out?
>>736689882If this was Playstation or Xbox you'd be doing the same exact thing you hypocritical drone.
>>736689049>Air Riders did way better than Air RIdeWOW epic accomplishment there, tendie!How many units did the GC sell again?20M?
>>736688887Costco is a big box store that often sells things cheaper because you have to pay a subscription fee to enter. Hope that clears it up OP
>>736690317If this was Playstation or Xbox there wouldn't be any threads about it you Nintendo-deranged faggot.
>>736690720>amerimutts have to tip to enter a grocery storelollmao even
>>736689064anon, combined that means they outsold every prime game besides 1.
>>736689117Wow and mario kart is a mind numbing slog.
>>736688990https://fineleatherjackets.net/monkeyinflationIt's almost where it should be
>>736688887Sweet, I was looking to pick up Air Riders soon.
>>736688887Kirby is exclusively a Japan-oriented franchise (hence why it's good)who cares if west*ids don't care, that only makes it better
>>736692167seething turd worlder
>>736688887>nintendo is evil, they never drop prices>nintendo is doomed, prices droppedwhich one is it?
>>736689117>>736689374>>736689651>>736690413>>736694107Post your 3x3.
>>736688887Not a single Kirby game is worth more than 15 bucks
>>736688887more like the switch 2 flopped, havent heard or seen anyone talk about it or play it. lately its been people going back to retro stuff
>>736688887It's never like that at my local Costco
>>736688887Fuck why isnt there a cosco here?
>>736693398Prime 4's budget is more than 1, 2, and 3 combined and doubledIt was in dev hell for like 8 years
>$50>heavily discounted
>>736688887fifty fucking us dollars? should be like 5.99
>>736694107>Reddit frogopinion ignored
I still support my costco because they kept their DEI policies and still have the $1.50 hotdog meal.
>>736695898>because they kept their DEI policiesHow the fuck is that a good thing you moron?
>>736695982Because it makes you seethe.
>>736695515and? that has no effect on consumers. money spent in dev hell is just a lost cause, you can't expect the game to magically sell better just because it had a troubled development.
>>736688887>air riders on sale>not in canadai sleep
>>736696098The point is it's a flop moron (and the game also just sucks regardless of sales). 1m is a massive success for a solo dev but colossal failure for CoD.
>>736689695i own a switch 2 but i'm not paying $70 for it. ludicrous price when i paid $50 for mkw.
>>736696194sure, but metroid prime isn't "call of duty". it's a niche series where 1m sales is roughly the expected amount.
>>736688887>black starthey're dumping their inventory.
>>736696414>roughly the expected amount>didn't even recoup a quarter its budgetLol sure bud
>>736694507Dreamland 3 and Super Metroid happen to be two of my favorite games but I'm not fucking delusional so I can admit that Air Riders did not do well and Prime 4 is shitty.
>snoys crying about nintendo>again
>>736695516>30% off>not a heavy discountRight...
>>736696695Prime 4 went through dev hell, but there's no way it had a 240m budget. this is nintendo, it probably had a 30m budget even after all the dev hell. oh and don't forget Prime remastered was made as part of that development hell, so all the profits from that game are part of the "was it worth it" calculation for Prime 4 too.
>>736688887Air Riders easily made it's money back. MP4 with it's 10 years dev time and restarts never stood a chance.
>>736697410>it probably had a 30m budget even after all the dev hellHoly fucking delusion. Retro has a lot of employees
>>736697639they didn't when they started making prime 4. right after the studio transfer got announced retro went on a hiring spree.
>>736688887>50$so the price of a normal game? Shits still not worth it for those titles lmao
>>736688887We're Costco Guys, of course we're Cubesnoys who hate modern NIntendo
>>736688887That's still too much. Air riders is a $30 game at most.
>>736697734They started around 150 at beginning of development, and have 200 now.Even salaries alone (no marketing or anything else), that's over 200m
>>736688887>Game is now 50 fucking buckaroos>This is considered a heavy discountAm I in hell or something?
>>736698139>200 employees over 6 years is 200myou really think the average retro studios employee makes ~$170k a year? the average salary is probably less than a quarter of that.
>>736698224kike one yea
>>736698139>>736698321Also, when you look at Retro's output for the decade before Prime 4 development, they were bleeding even more money and made... no games at all. So once again nintendo probably sees prime 4 as an improvement over Retro's previous output of nothing.
>>736698321>vidya devs in USAAverage salary is about 120k, might be lower as it's Texas as opposed to Cali
>>736699420Texas is the third world so of course income would be lower there.
