i genuinely hope scalpers and collectors die painful deaths

You understand that there will be thousand million copies floating around? It's not limited quantity

You're a god damn retard if you think people are gonna give you triple the cost of something just a few days after they go away. Hell its probably gonna still have extra stock in stors after march becuase it aint like the secret nintendo police gonna come in and take em back,

As long as there are no reprints and they dont sell like 10 million copies they could be worth something say 20 years

Limited time, not limited quantity

>if you think people are gonna give you triple the cost of something just a few days after they go away

have you ever been around consumers, ever?

Cleary you haven't otherwise you know that limited time =/= limited quantity

I would but they don't even sell them here in europe, only UK.

Is this even how it will work though?
I imagine the easiest money will be in selling Switch modding services and/or pre-modded Switch consoles, with the pirated bundle and other free copy-able shit included.

blame nintendo for their retarded strategies not the scalpers

Yeah just start a service and be like those others getting ass raped in prison

This will (allegedly) stop being produced in a few months rather than throughout the lifespan of the console. The price will absolutely increase after it is no longer produced, but who knows by how much. I don't see how this is arguable.

One of the first rules of collectibles is if it's advertised as being collectible and/or limited edition, it's probably not very collectible.

You literally are proving point

i always buy every game twice.

The biggest problem is that after the 2001-2003 era of "ZOMG I found the Mona Lisa in my basement alongside this prototype game only given to the CEO of Nintendo" everybody started hoarding their 'collectibles' and keeping multiple copies of games sealed for resale in the future.

What? I bought like 5 copies from the local store.

You are dreaming if you think these games are the second coming of Jesus. They were good back then now I don't think so.

It's going to be on sale for only six months. That's a significantly shorter time than your typical game, which is sold for years. For example, you can buy New Super Mario Bros. 2 for 3DS (2011) from Target or Best Buy right now. Moreover, most of the copies purchased will be opened. New copies will be sold by a minority who bought the game with the intention to gouge the buyer. This game will be expensive quickly.

Wii games aren't being produced anymore but their prices haven't gone up. The only games that have gone up are the ones that didn't sell much to begin with. A game like mario all stars will sell a ton of copies, and there will be a significant amount in circulation. I really don't expect the game to be worth more than $60 even after it's done being produced simply because there will be so many copies. Consider all the scalpers and then consider normal people who sell their games after they play them. Scalpers can price shit as high as they want but it doesn't mean anyone will buy it when normies are willing to sell their copies for a reasonable price

You backed the wrong horse.

Physical copies are still on sale. So there must be millions of them.

Pic-related sold out in minutes though. I got mine.

>implying Nintendo isn't the scalpers.

this hasn't gone on sale in the usa yet

You'll end up spending more on those games than you'll actually get for them. Retard.

I doubt you'll be able to resell for much of a profit, considering the initial price is already rather exorbitant ($50 to play games that you almost certainly own already but on a cooler format)

What country?

not him. checked one random electronic store in sweden and it says there's 100+ copies available to order.
so might be hundreds in one store alone.

The toilet paper and hand sanitizer scalpers got fucked with the no return policy and people realizing this isn't disrupting a supply chain so there's no reason to think toilet paper would have a shortage. Scalpers are scum but Nintendo should just produce more of their product so there's no scarcity. No idea if this is artificial scarcity or not, but I remember that's what everyone was saying during the Wii craze. This is honestly anti-consumer as hell, there's no reason to stop selling this game digitally except to make people feel like they HAVE to get it before they can't. I ended up emulating it because I have the means to emulate it with HD textures at 60fps and 1080, but the normalfags are honestly better off buying this collection

Norway. Pretty much every electronic store got 100+ in storage

You underestimate consoooomers

I'ts also a clock
