Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision has been followed by significant price hikes and layoffs, harming both gamers and developers.
︀︀
︀︀As we’ve seen across sectors, increasing market consolidation and increasing prices often go hand-in-hand.
︀︀
︀︀As dominant firms become too-big-to-care, they can make things worse for their customers without having to worry about the consequences.

Quoting Lee Hepner (@LeeHepner)

In March 2023, Microsoft told a court, "Game Pass prices will not increase as a result of the [Microsoft-Activision] Merger."
︀︀
︀︀On July 10, 2023, a federal judge (whose son works at Microsoft!) rejected the FTC's challenge to the merger.

The gaming industry has long been damaged by price increases

#

As is the case in the real world, buying food or perhaps ingredients like butter or milk has become expensive.

#

I mean, a lot of people always say they are willing to pay more for milk and other animal products if it means farmers make more at the end of it, like paying a cent or two more, but for some reason the stores don't want to increase the price for those products.

the nature of having an apartment not a house

Some people struggle with buying games because you earn more at work, but the bills will still increase, which you gain nothing from. So some people have to limit their game purchases to save money for real-life needs, and the worst is when you have a loan that you still have to pay off.

#

Its hard to articulate this to other countries because they normally pay far more.

#

Back in the day gba games had the yen equivalent of 60 dollars per cart.

That's why region locking existed

#

People would import from the US because it was way cheaper, lol.

Where would I go to ask dev’s permission to 3d print some of there art work?

Part of the high price was because the emerald cart had a CMOS battery which was nonstandard.

To follow up on the commuting ststement, Nintendo adding more 3rd party titles is because its fighting against steamdeck

You can play those elsewhere better and cheaper

Thing is, most Japanese have enough for one console.

That's why the PSP did so well.

Monster hunter was more popular than pokemon

The thing is the switch 2 isn't overpriced in japan

There might be free models you can download online that are already configured for 3d printing, you'll find the extracted game files are very...not ideal

PAL usually pays around 10-20% more

Nintendo has offices in Mexico, the thing still costs $700 in Mexico

PAL doesn't exist anymore. That whole thing was dropped around 2010s.

So I actually just recently checked my physical copy of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate that I have now thanks to my sweet and kind stepsister, and I don’t have to download it from the Nintendo eShop or whatever it’s called, but if I were to want to play Legend Of Zelda Wind Waker for the Nintendo GameCube I would either get really lucky to find a physical copy of it somewhere or get a Nintendo Switch 2 just to play what the Nintendo GameCube application comes with.

# rare coral Actually to add to the GBA stuff. Pokemon Emerald was 80 USD.

I mean, as someone who looked up at how prices actually changed when one currency was adopted to another, when germany changed from their currency to the euro, none of the entertainment products changed in price, only the currency tag got changed.
You got like more or less half in terms of exchange rate 10 Mark would give you round about 5 Euro, but a video game would only change from 50 Mark to 50 Euro, basically doubling in cost. if not quadrupling in price.

But nobody seemed to talk about that at all.

#

Electronics are disproportionately affected because they are tarrifed not just on manufacturing but materials. So they are double/triple tarrifed. Making other things expensive. PC is hurting right now here.

#

Everything has been.

humble parrot
#

Maybe in the US, I haven't really seen much changes

rare coral
#

What hasn't raised in price was what was already here.

#

Combine that with how asinine it's applied and you get a bizzare case of Schrödinger's tarrif. Nobody knows till the lootbox cargo container is opened.

#

Was it sent before or after? What hemisphere was it on?

humble parrot
#

I bought a new phone this year, it was $150

#

Cheaper than buying it on Amazon, for example.

#

So I think the discrepancy here is that you see everything overpriced, while I only see US stuff overpriced

#

And since a lot of eletronics are not even made in the US nowadays

rare coral
#

If Nintendo prices arnt moving it's either A, they were high to absorb the tarrif cost, or b, the batch with the price hike hasn't come yet. But it's still a first world problem compared to the bullshit other countries dealt with.

humble parrot
#

Before things get political. I'd stop there.

#

I'm just agreeing with you that prices are unfairly high outside the US

#

700 is absurd.

It gets worse

#

$700 is an outrageous price, I wouldn’t dream or dare to spend $700 for a video game or video game console.

humble parrot
#

It's $800 in Brazil, which includes all that area down there.

#

Also, games are more expensive too

#

Physical and digital

#

MKW is $102

rare coral
#

As for switch prices in the US, I was trying to say that the 450 price tag is either bullshit it's self or we got so many warehoused on us shores that they evaded the tarrif. Which then means we got artificial shortages during holidays. Then again according to everyone the console is failing outside of Japan.

#

But Nintendo at it's core has always been a toy company. They play pricing/availability games like one too.

# teal iron You poor deprived soul

At the time I didn’t really see a reason to get a Nintendo WiiU since in a way those things are like the PlayStation Portable so in a way the Nintendo WiiU is similar like that of a PlayStation Portable and should’ve been called the NWUP initially like how the PlayStation Portable is initialized as PSP or Nintendo WiiU Portable.

#

Meant to put Nintendo WiiU, not Nintendo Switch 2.

rare coral
#

The Wii-U was very much not portable.

#

It was an experiment to apply the successful featureset of the DS to a home console.

Somewhere Nintendo missed the part where it was awkward to have to look away from the TV screen to use the controller screen.

-# Translated by Grok
In my post from the previous day, there was a section mentioning lobbying by private companies regarding IP protection, and afterward, accurate information was provided by the relevant company. In conclusion, there was no fact of lobbying, and it was found that my post contained misinformation, so I would like to correct it. In particular, I apologize to those involved.

If I correct the relevant part of my post from the previous day and rephrase it accurately based on the facts, it becomes: "Nintendo is cautious about the use of generative AI in game development from the perspective of intellectual property protection. It does not engage in lobbying activities toward the government. Regarding IP infringement, it takes appropriate measures regardless of the presence or absence of AI." Thank you for your understanding.

Not some big conspiracy or coverup

But just cause Nintendo allegedly isn’t doing it right now, they’ve made no commitment to keep from doing so in the future.

I think they meant more so like OG Fable 1. While the game fell short, its original goal was to "give you the freedom of any choices you want to make". Can "do anything".

Fast forward two decades, and I feel like BG3 accomplished the vision that 2004 Fable 1 had, in a sense.

For example, Marvel Rivals was called a Marvel Overwatch clone but they're unique enough to stand on it's own.

Marvel Rivals has a great wealth of IP to lean on. Decades and decades of comics. You got 60 yos that have known the characters for 50+ years.

When Overwatch came out, sure, the gameplay was great and unique, but obviously all of the characters were brand new and unknown to people. So, they had to lean on the designs that they went with.

will pocketpair ever make a real pokemon game?

im not trying to cause a ruckus, im just so tired of playing yet another pokemon game and all its horrible and greediness. and there doesn't seems like a game to replace it.

like, i don't mind of playing a pokemon game with all its content and mechanics copied down to the core yet again

in fact, i love the mechanics and the contents that a pokemon game has to offer (e.g. battling system, exploring, evolutions, the npcs, just basically everything.)

but expecting me to buy both the game and the console to play it, is like charging you a full price of a car for just the steering wheel.

and its not necessarily in a good quality too. these days, all i heard from the pokemon games reviews are just yet another bugs, money grabber/squeezer/milker, and pile tons of hot garbage that is the broken contents

like, i just want to live my childhood games at its prime and glory..

ugghhh, man.. i guess i'll have to just stick with pokemon™ instead of playing pokemon for now.. this sucks.

teal iron
#

You aren't gonna get a pokemon game that's up to whatever lofty standard you have, probably ever

#

It's just a very dated design and what makes it special is the IP, more specifically the characters, and the people who hold that IP aren't interested in making the game you want

#

Nothing compels them to make black 2 and white 2 or whatever everyone insists was the last good Pokemon game again

rare coral
teal iron
#

Which I think they should really decide whether they're the same game that released in 1998 or if they're a modern IP like Mario is rather than making these weird in between games but I think ultimately when they do make that choice it's gonna be not the old way

fluid raven
#

wdym, i already love it as it is. i dont need for anything necessarily changes. i love all the gens and all each one has to offer.. its just that many things are just locked behind a pay-mountain (no longer a wall) and they don't seems to justify their actions via quality

I'm not sure if anyone heard of this game but since it's been compared to Terraria and plenty of people in this Discord love Terraria - There is a game on Steam called Planet Centauri. It just released into 1.0 and from what I heard, had over 100,000 wishlists but only sold about 500 copies because Steam failed to notify all of the users who wishlisted it that the game was out of EA.

humble parrot
#

And It's not recently that they released, 1.0 update was done in December 2024

#

And well, the 1.0 patchnotes are this:


Adds:
Guidance system: uses the completion tree to display objectives and help the player to progress.
The guidance system can be disabled in Game options.
Option to change the direction only when moving with the keyboard (player is not facing automatically the mouse)

Changes:
Quests and dialogs with the crystal have been removed and replaced by the guidance system
Worm transformation is always visible

Fix:
Several dozen bugs fixed```
There hasn't been a single update since.

Yasuke backlash?

Like yeah I see why if they made a game that was blatantly anti-white supremacy there’d be more assassination attempts on Ubisoft employees than politicians

#

That game was never gonna survive today

crazy really.
personally (pretty sure im white) i dont see a problem with a game based around a former slave fighting the KKK

#

and even if i did. at the end of the day, its a game, about history.
If i had a problem i just wouldnt play it

There are plenty of historical examples of whites who fought alongside people of color in the civil war and after

I bought Slime Rancher 2, since it released into 1.0, but I can't recommend it. 50 hours in now and it's not really as fun and as 'wow-factor' as the first game, the environments are less exciting and they put in a ton of insanely long grind to actually get every item in the final zone, because you're literally rate limited in several ways to obtain the currency to buy the stuff, it's "just" decoration but a game that wants you to decorate with things, locking the items behind an insane grind is just not something I can recommend, and the gameplay prior to that part is also not something I can really say was a step-up from the first game, personally it was in all aspects not as satisfying as the first game was, go buy that instead, also the first game is required to be played in order to even understand what's going on in the 2nd game in terms of story.

anyone know why my legendary passive teaphant is not enough for the legend loving researchers quest? (it is summoned and the passive is vampiric)

People prefer playing a local Japanese assassin. Yasuke as a side ally would be far better.

#

In fact, an AC game set in post-Civil War era is basically Django Unchained.

#2 is OOT, obviously

#

And I'm only saying that because I hated the pressure of the time limit

#

Regarding the setting, it's almost as good as TP

Sadly I don't think Ubi could make a game as cool as Gramp's story.

If only.

That pitch is so good, though.

うーん……ファミマにもうクリスマスの飾り付けが出てるんだけど、まだハロウィンすら来てないのに……

でもまあ、日本でイベントがどれだけ商業化されてるかを考えると、これはこれでけっこう怖いから……ある意味ハロウィンっぽくて合ってるかも。
