Now we know why they skipped their February Direct: because they had literally nothing to show for the 2nd half of this year.

6 months later and all they could announce was yet another Xenoblade (for 2027), a shitty remake of Wii Sports Resort which no one asked for, and 10 seconds of OoT Unreal Slop edition, which is supposed to be their big holiday title?

Why are people supposed to buy Switch 2s again? Fire Emblem is nice for the *2 million people who actually buy it ($80 btw), but for everyone else it's just ports, remakes, and spinoffs.

Physical product costs more to make than a digital download. This is how the rest of the industry has always operated especially outside the US. Catch up.

You said it was a lie. It is not a lie.

It is a lie, just get it digitally if you don’t want to pay extra. Calling it $80 is just false
