Beginning in May 2026, and starting with preorders for Yoshi and the Mysterious Book, new Nintendo published digital titles exclusive to Nintendo Switch 2 will have an MSRP that is different from physical versions.

Nintendo games offer the same experiences whether in packaged or digital format, and this change simply reflects the different costs associated with producing and distributing each format and offers players more choice in how they can buy and play Nintendo games.

As always, retail partners set their own prices for physical and digital games, and pricing for each title may vary.

i'm all digital so i have no objections

Same

But the real question is it digital $10 less or physical $10 more

so the games are $80 now ?

So yoshi was advertised as a $60 game… now digital is $60 while physical increases to $70

Checked again

So they announced pricing today

My belief is this is an increase

Physicals now $10 more. Yoshi seems like a $60 game they are now charging $70 for physicals

this is the way things should be but they’re gonna start charging extra for physicals and you’re still getting nothing lol, no cool instruction manual or designs and most cases still not getting the full game

F*** Nintendo

Never paid for a nintendo game

If I want sum I get that shi for free

yall don't know the method!

games are already 100 CDN plus tax over here mario kart was 110 plus tax

Got an unopened day 1 switch 2 just waiting to be jailbroken

Nintendo don't f*** around f***ing over niggas

god damn here in cali digital isn’t taxed either so this makes the gap huge

$60 vs $77

that’s a whole extra game every 3 games

Wtf I never realized we didn't get taxed for digital I just assumed it was like that everywhere

Lucky ass mfs

so dumb

why do i have to be punished for wanting the cooler option

gib me monie

I don’t know why I didn’t notice this but game dev budgets are high because developers are getting paid a lot of money. I don’t know why I thought it went to like an electrical bill or a machine where you exchange cash for graphics

Raise the price as high as you need to Nintendo. These gamers have been taking sub 100$ games for granted

good thing they increased prices after being old enough to have a job and earn money. I would have been screwed if they did this back when I was a kid with no money

all this and he's still evading taxes

nintendo r brokies

They should sue the trump administration for using their precious IP in their ice brutality highlight reels before doing this s***
