Forget it. on a meal sure, but on a sandwich? its two pieces of bread with stuff inside, if it costs more than £5 i'll just make one myself. also wouldnt personally go on a date to a sandwich shop but you do you i guess.

Sandwiches are good. Sandwiches made my other people are better. Sandwiches made by other people out of ingredients I tend not to have in stock at home are the best. Pretty much all of that necessitates spending more than the sticker price of a mobile game.

Stux posted:ok but for a point of comparison £6.99 puts in it the same price range as a final fantasy game, or a phoenix wright title. hell for £2 more you can get 3 full GTA titles. and thats only looking at other major game companies and ignoring tons of 79p - £2 titles which offer similar levels of content. it just feels very expensive for what is on offer given the market and i dont really see the justification for it. I'm not sure why you'd compare it to games that were previously a lot more when brand new (GTA series was full price on consoles and better suited there) or games that are completely different (RPGS already, also, released before for more). Pricing on games isn't a universal thing.

They're not Mario, though. The polish, presentation and implementation of their first mobile game is excellent. As someone who loves Apple, surely you can understand why a Mario game might be more expensive (to you) than a lesser known entity without the backing of a major studio.

If you measure the value of a game solely by the number of hours it keeps existential dread at bay with no regard for any other factors then congratulations, you're as dumb as stux.

As someone who loves Apple, surely you can understand why a Mario game might be more expensive (to you) than a lesser known entity without the backing of a major studio. this doesnt make sense either though. sonic games dont command such a price premium. neither do star wars games. nor do angry bird games. sure, sonic might not be mario big, but i think you would agree that star wars and angry birds are certainly up there, if not a bigger draw, yet there isnt the premium that there is for this game. also, having just played the demo, i dont feel there is polish or presentation above or beyond the better mobile titles out there. it feels roughly the same, which is great because it means nintendo are well placed in mobile gaming already, but it still doesnt explain the price unless its literally a price gouge on nintendo fans, which is what it sounds like you are saying it is.

Kawabata posted:but it's not the same content at all gameplay wise i think this is a bit of a dismissive comment rather than an actual engagement. even if you dont personally like gta i think its pretty ridiculous to dismiss the comparison out of hand because you think theyre not up to snuff quality or content wise. these are big games, considered classics, that you happen to personally not enjoy. that doesnt erase the point.

If you find single digit price differences between video games to be significant you should probably focus a little more on your career.
