932 - 04/13/25 Bobby Blackwolf Show - What Nintendo Could Have Done To Make Mario Kart World Cheaper
Update: 2025-04-20
Description
Nintendo is assessing the tariff situation, and made a statement that the Switch 2 price was not made with the tariffs in mind. The 46% tariffs on Vietnam were paused for 90 days, but the 10% tariff went into effect.
If you ask Google and Reddit, the physical version of Mario Kart World is $90 in the US - however, if you ask Nintendo, it is only $80. The confusion is because the internet is broken.
Then we ask the multi-million dollar question - how could Mario Kart World's price have been lowered? You probably wouldn't like the answer as a consumer - but it's a reckoning a lot of AAA titles that are feature-filled or take innovation and risks will have to come to grips with.
Then we talk to Rob about the price of everything gaming related, even though our wages haven't gone up to pay for it.
