Nintendo explains the $80 price for Mario Kart World: more content means higher price

Nintendo justifies the set price of $80 for Mario Kart World for Switch 2 by referring to the amount of content and value of the game. Bill Trinen, a representative of the company, noted that pricing is based on an individual assessment of each game and its content.

Here's What We Know

Trinen emphasised that the upcoming Mario Kart World presentation, scheduled for 17 April, will provide more details about the game, which he said will help players evaluate its content and justify the price.

The announcement of the $80 price has sparked debate among gamers. Some have expressed concern about the rising cost of games, especially given the already increased standard price for new releases to $70.

It is hoped that the additional content and improvements in Mario Kart World will really meet the expectations of players and the price.
