You think they would announce a new Smash or at least a reboot with more characters.

It was always stupid they decided to stop producing new champions in the game

It was telling that Nintendo didn't cite the price points during the direct. Apparently $450 for the system. Games $70 or $80 for digital/physical. Which is kind of bananas.

Maybe they just wanted to avoid a XBox One / PS5 Pro price reveal moment. Maybe it changes. But those prices are...yeesh.

I apologize for being “that guy”….

I bought Bases Loaded 2 on the NES for 39.99 back in 1992. The price stuck with me cause I charged 1 dollar a lawn on base and when I cut 40 lawns and went to the store my dad (drill sergeant at the time) gave me a hard time for not factoring in tax.

Anyways, according to chatgpt, that game would be 79.58 today, so it seems relatively fair I think.
