      If a price is seen to be unreasonable, it is the duty of the consumer to not bend over and take whatever is charged without complaint, whether it’s for necessities or on luxury good like video games. It is not necessary to use anti-consumer practices to make money, despite what capitalism has trained you to think.

          If that were the only issue with capitalism, that would be great! But it’s just one small symptom out of many. There’s no denying Nintendo is being very aggressive here with pricing, and at a particularly uncertain time for the world’s economies, to boot. I’m curious to see just how much BS their market will take from them. I’m sure the first year or so, they’ll sell out easily as they struggle to meet demand; it’s after that I’m interested to see.
