*Prices in Canadian Dollars bofore taxes.
**The discounted price of both Oblivion and Expedition 33 come from OFFICIAL PC key shops, so I thought it was a valid comparison.
This puts in perspective how out of touch Nintendo is when it comes to pricing their games.

Damn I forgot Expedition 33 was coming out. So many games to play but not enough time.
What’s Expedition 33 lol
$110 for a *Mario Cart* game!?
only 105?
pretty good deal imo
imma get all 3
And both are on Game Pass if you’re into that. I haven’t tried Game Pass yet, but two hits on the same day make it very tempting to subscribe for a few months.
What is expedition 33?
And both are in gamepass, so you could technically play and beat both in one month for $20. Realistically most people would have the time to do, tho(or maybe I’m just old).
I didn’t realize Canadian dollars made that much of a difference. 80 USD vs 110 CAD
Mario kart will prolly sell more copies than both combined still
And i can buy two or three VW Golf for the price of a Porsche. What is your point?
What site is this even?
Looks like CDKeys?
Oh boy, can’t wait to see this exact post reworded tomorrow.
These two games only cost that much because they’re *discounted*.
The price before tax in actuality is $131.98
Yeah but neither of those have a cow on a bike. Think about it.
It’s hard to take it seriously when you aren’t comparing RRP on both sides.
Why can’t I hold all deez games
I didn’t know the official Canadian pricing for Switch 2 games had come out (it wasn’t available in the immediate aftermath of the announcement)
$110 makes me sad
And people will still buy it so nothing is going to happen
Mario Kart sells significantly below MSRP at various retailers. This is not an apples to apples comparison.
This is super disingenuous lmao the discounts are not permanent. I’m as mad at Nintendo as everyone but let’s not make it seem worse than it is
Remember when games cost $100 in the ’90s? That’s like $200 now. This is a deal.
1. dont buy mario kart. Buy the other games and dont complain
2. not a valid comparison, take them at full price. While it is a small difference it would make this post seem far less biased
3. what is expedition 33?
4. Mario kart will sell more than those two games combined, for better or for worse
5. lets not forget Bethesta started all this microtransaction bullshit. On top of this they are known for releasing unfinished, buggy messes. But yea brush all that under the rug
Well I dont have any friends, so the games on the left it is.
Also I cant use nudemods on Mario Kart.
You can also get both on gamepass for only $15
And MK will outsell both of them combined. People need to understand Nintendo fanboys will literally buy whatever the company shits out, it doesn’t matter how much it costs or what the quality is.
“Hey, it’s worth the price. Don’t like it? Stay on the original Switch with the rest of the Poors.”

*followed by the deafening sounds of the Nintendo Defense Force slow clapping*
Mario Kart is 74.99
It’s a kind of tough comparison. One is a remake of an old game, one is the first game from a new studio, and one is the 10th(?) game in a franchise that has sold nearly 200 million units.
I’m not saying any one thing is right. But it’s a lot easier for publishers to approach with caution or approach with value in regards to the two RPG’s.
I’m currently playing around with Oblivion (on Game Pass), will check out COE33 (on Game Pass), and will play Mario Kart World when it releases.
the sad thing is nintendo will always get away with it because their rabid fans will keep bend over and buying their stuff
And believe me, you’re getting WAYYY more game out of Oblivion
$110?! What the fuck
“You don’t understand, Mario Kart World will CLEARLY have more content than Oblivion!” he shrieked as he slinked back into the shadows clutching his Switch between his rotting fingers.
But but Mario open world 120 fps!!
Yes, but if you wait a year the two on the left will get a price break. Mario Kart won’t. So best to get that one now!
One is just a retread of the same game you’ve been playing for 20 years with better graphics. And the other is Oblivion.
(I kid, I’m looking forward to MKW too.)
Yup and I bet Mario Kart will be making record sales basically confirming to Nintendo that habing that price was the right decision
Fuck Nintendo
Why is Nintendo charging so much for things?
I got both and getting Mario kart world. I dont have to choose
WRONG! Depending on regional pricing, mario kart can cost up to **twice as much** of both games combined, and a little more.
In my country due to nintendo lack of regional pricing and extra taxes for a similar reason, its the equivalent of 78.65 USD vs 166.09 USD for example.
Just searched it up and the other game looks INSANE, probably thinking I’m gonna play it first before finishing Oblivion
lol. Pitiful console “gamers”
And?
Even less if you subscribe to Game Pass for the month to play them!
Where is Dinkum
The value of something is determined by what the market will pay for it. Majority of Switch 2 owners are going to buy Mario Kart, Nintendo knows this.
Counterpoint: These games are coming out on everything. Where else are you gonna play Mario Kart?
Nintendo has us by the balls and they know it.
