Yeah $80 from Nintendo, FIRST?! Hoo boy, suddenly we all don't feel so good...
That's opened the floodgates so now others are looking at that price tag, and perhaps they'll wait and see how well MKW does (which likely will be a no-brainer), they'll get their forks and knives ready as they slap on those equalling prices. Mainly the franchises that are big enough to do this really, unless they fumble hard like Assassin's Creed has, because if that didn't happen/didn't release before MKW that might've been a name to do it. After Shadows though unless they return to their roots, AC won't see the light of day again. Moving on, er...no FIFA couldn't do it could they? Hope not, those games shouldn't cost that much. A mainline Pokémon game after Z-A could, but that's Nintendo again. As big as From Software has become, I doubt Duskbloods will be, probably $70 for that but the game after which'll be on PC/PS5/Xbox Series X could be.
Just throwing out guesses really, some more for sure but hopefully it'll be closer to $70 for now instead of lots gunning for the $80, not sure which'll go higher. GTA 6 but that might not be just standard alone for going over.

Oh, it gets worse. That 80 dollar price tag is for digital releases only. Physical copies carry a price tag of $90!
Yeah, I'm gonna be looking pretty deeper into the second hand market, now. Fuck paying 90 bucks for a game.

When you're buying a game on the website, you're buying the digital version. You can't buy games from the manufacturer in physical form anymore. By simple process of elimination, it has to be the digital version.
