The price of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has been confirmed by Nintendo as being $70; however, this does not necessarily indicate that this is a trend that will continue in the future. Game Informer was successful in obtaining a few of remarks from the firm about the issue, which may provide some clarity regarding the matter.
Case-by-case pricing
Regarding the question of why the newest Zelda game is priced the way that it is, Nintendo provided a straightforward response by saying, “We establish the recommended retail price for every Nintendo product on a case-by-case basis.” The Big N responded with a resounding “No” when Game Informer inquired as to whether or not this would become the standard for video games published by Nintendo in the years to come. Case-by-case basis is how we calculate the manufacturer’s recommended retail price for each and every Nintendo product.
Many people were taken aback when they heard the news since Nintendo has never previously released a game with a price tag of seventy dollars. On the other hand, as was said before, there is no predetermined pricing point.
The unexpected announcement and sale of Metroid Prime Remastered took place today, and the game can be purchased for just $40. Pikmin 4, another major impending release from Nintendo, will have a price tag of $60 when it is finally made available.
Although Nintendo does not currently offer any other games priced at $70, it is reasonable to assume that the company will do so in the near future.
