Nintendo says $70 price tags for their games is not the trend going forward

One unfortunate downside to today’s Nintendo Direct news is that, sadly, it has been officially confirmed that The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom will be $70. Game Informer wanted to get more information on the reasoning for this, so they reached out to Nintendo.

Nintendo has responded to GameStop, saying that the new Zelda game is $70 because “we determine the suggested retail price for any Nintendo product on a case-by-case basis”. As for whether this will be the trend for their games going forward, they confirmed that it won’t be, and repeated that “we determine the suggested retail price for any Nintendo product on a case-by-case basis.
