    Do you think parents or casuals know that, or do you think that they only know of the TV news reports of the console and game price increases? The biggest story revolving around the Switch 2 before launch was the price increases.

    I imagine the people who purchased the console are aware of the game prices, yes.

        Is there any third party game on switch 2 that wasn't on the first switch? Looking at the Nintendo store I can't even tell.

            They made a filter for that specifically on eShop 😛 Cyberpunk 2077, Street Fighter 6, Yakuza 0, Bravely Default Remaster. All rereleases. Only Fast Fusion and Split Fiction are new but both are a bit of a niche thing.

              „Same game released on 7 different platforms across at least 2 generations of hardware not selling as well as expected, analysts baffled.”

                I've gone through all tabs of the eShop and don't see any filter like that anywhere.

                    In that case, I'm even more confused. Who do you think is going around just rebuying games they already own?

                        I'm saying that the pricing scheme Nintendo has for the S2 ecosystem is not conducive to pushing volume. This is evident to my other comment from talking to my local game store. Console demand is high, while games, accesories and controllers are not. If the average consumer's S2 library goes over 10 games average for the lifetime of the console, I'll be surprised unless pricing changes. The people who have purchased a S2 are holding back on other purchases that usually accompany that purchase. The people who haven't yet purchased and who will not purchase are likely aware of the prices as well. My rural local TV station ran 2 stories on price increases. Even if not all games are $80 each, the preconception is there for quite a few people that all S2 games are $80 each no matter if you've purchased a console or not.
