  • _gatodefranja Tuna / Basil 🍃 (@_gatodefranja) reported

    @ohmiyoni NINTENDO PLEASEEEE but fr i've had my first ds for like 15 years now and the only issue i had was having to change the battery once bc it got swollen the charger is still alive and functioning perfectly the true console for giving your chaotic children lmao

  • Krissy_Blues gamer knuckle🐇🌈 (@Krissy_Blues) reported

    if Tears of the Kingdom actually costs as much as a PS5 game and this isn't an error that is absurdly embarrassing of Nintendo lmfao You ain't making PS5 game quality dudes you can't get away with that

  • thalassashells rach ▴ (@thalassashells) reported

    @Axolatol It was removed so I hope it's an error but who knows with nintendo 😭 we will find out tomorrow

  • Isaiah4554_ Isaiah4554 (@Isaiah4554_) reported

    @HMKilla "It could've been a error" If there's one thing we know for a fact, is Nintendo don't play games with their money.$70 is def coming cause they know they can get away with it. Especially considering retailers now are delisting the $60 asking price lol

  • Rockfang27 Rocky Faang 🦡🐀🍈🏳️‍🌈 (@Rockfang27) reported

    @Orcanist Ooooh. Nintendo announces GBA games on their online service as part of the direct tomorrow.

  • Monadospower14 Ya Boi Shulk (@Monadospower14) reported

    @CentroLeaks Er, you know there's things called errors, right? Making errors is something that regularly happens, even more so with Nintendo. There's no way they charge 70 us dollars for a game

  • bipolarbear777 D3gener8e (@bipolarbear777) reported

    @ConsoomerLs Lost? Isn't on a memory card/screen thing, you can insert into another Nintendo switch? All I see is the connection between a controller and screen broken

  • Kevin4TheWin Kevin4TheWin (@Kevin4TheWin) reported

    I will not pay $70 for a #NintendoSwitch game even if it is Zelda that is just ridiculous, just paid $59 for a broken #PokemonScarletViolet game three months back. #Nintendo must be smoking some good stuff if they think people going to drop $70 on a last gen game.

  • TommoTheCabbit The Year of the Cabbit 🐈🐇 (@TommoTheCabbit) reported

    Who knows if Tears of the Kingdom will actually be $70 because this is concerning Hopefully, this game has so much to offer and will surpass Breath of the Wild in terms of content and quality I really think that $70 on Nintendo's site is probably an error, but we'll find out

  • DittoSprigatito Mangli(Pokémon 🟪)💙🟥🟨 (@DittoSprigatito) reported

    @SYACVG i hope it it human error or nintendo learned that it wont be well recieved

  • _gatodefranja Tuna / Basil 🍃 (@_gatodefranja) reported

    @ohmiyoni i'm specifically a nintendo ds stan bc my switch had drifting problems with months of using and its battery will last like two days with no use BUT MY TWO DSs ARE LITERALLY INDESTRUCTIBLE

  • Miimaster64 Robert Shaw (@Miimaster64) reported

    You know it sucks but I *personally* actually have little issue buying Tears of the Kingdom at a higher price if it comes to that. Like Nintendo ALWAYS delivers with Zelda (except with Triforce Heroes but that was one time). I understand not everyone can justify that price though

  • wiz_hat_ Wizhat (@wiz_hat_) reported

    @leo_unlimited "Nintendo Music Service." If only that were true.

  • GGlop95 GlingGlop95 (@GGlop95) reported

    @Randy_2899 @Gilbertbelieve2 @Wario64 To be fair the recent Nintendo games that have technical issues weren’t made in house

  • Bioalpha Bryan "BioAlpha" Blain (@Bioalpha) reported

    @Wario64 @NintendoAmerica This is a glitch right. or the deluxe edition or steel book edition? $70 for a switch game? Switch successor was what i was expecting to see the increase at (still dumb but itd make sense)

  • JJInferno96 Jeff (@JJInferno96) reported

    @ActualAero With it being from the Official Nintendo Eshop itself, I don't think the pricing is an error, unfortunately. It was an error for it to be revealed though. It's more likely that the other retailers listed the wrong price before Nintendo's official site does.

  • itsgapped Gapped (@itsgapped) reported

    @itsayemanda @NintendoAmerica I heard they were discontinuing service for the game to release Animal Don’t Cross Me, their new FPS game

  • NyxRetr0 Mario (@NyxRetr0) reported

    @SlolfyJosy Apparently it was an error, but I wouldn’t trust Nintendo to not make a decision that will make absolutely everyone upset online

  • GunSlinger1110 Adam (GunSlinger) (@GunSlinger1110) reported

    Most likely, that was a listing error on Nintendo's part but, whether Tears of the Kingdom is $60 or $70, it could be $90 and I'd still cop. What I'm sayin is: It's the damn sequel to Breath of the Wild bruh. Ain't nothin stoppin ya boy

  • ZetaPlusCG Christian (@ZetaPlusCG) reported

    All we can hope for is either this is a error or Nintendo is testing the waters with next gen prices with zelda because they have new hardware coming and are idiots or they're treating zelda like this because it's there big game of the year and are stupid We'll know tomorrow if

  • HeyMario256 ActLikeThat (@HeyMario256) reported

    I'm surprised people really think nintendo is gonna charge $70 for Tears of the Kingdom. Feels more like an error to me. Could be wrong though. We'll see.

  • Thew1ndow ⭐️Nimby❄️ (@Thew1ndow) reported

    Like legit, it would fix everything and makes sense, also Nintendo please let Dixie do more fr

  • superdajoka Dajoka (HYPED FOR PIKMIN 4) (@superdajoka) reported

    I really hope tears of the kingdom isn't 70 bucks, especially for an asset reusing sequel. Hopefully the price on the eshop was an error, but knowing Nintendo, they would probably do something like this.

  • KenKrumbach Mekuto (@KenKrumbach) reported

    @NinEverything Gonna give it the benefit of the doubt and say its an error. Nintendo probably won't jump on the 70 dollar train til their next consol. Unless the switch 2 or whatever is announced tomorrow and TOTK is on both and that was the new consol's price. Unlikely though.

  • Jimboh11 Jimboh11 (@Jimboh11) reported

    @Wildfyaa @YungBlackSaiyan @Wario64 What justification do they have though , Microsoft and Sony could justify putting it up because the new consoles take more resources to develop for . If nintendo are just putting them up for the funny that's a big issue .

  • Nexo365 Nexo (@Nexo365) reported

    @ActualAero Maybe it's to do with a next gen Nintendo console or it's an error

  • Tuggernut4 Tuggernut (@Tuggernut4) reported

    @itsunforgiven @Ericutz4thewin Look I've had no problem buying $70 games but for the switch? An outdated console?? The outrage is warranted. But it's Nintendo so this price doesn't surprise me at all.

  • Woomyzilla EmblemDust༝ (@Woomyzilla) reported

    @SammyCoroika Nintendo has long since proven themselves useless. They are not the same company they once were. And even then, they had their problems.
