Super Mario Boards

it was not just 'oh it's expensive' it was 'it's expensive and there was nothing that would get people to want to buy it'

like you can say what you want about $80 mario kart (if you ignore the existence of the bundle version that is cheaper) but like you gotta admit that that is a fuckin stronger launch title than friggin steel diver, nintendogs + cats, and pilotwings resort, y'know?

We'll just see who's willing to drop 600+ minimum for a kids' kart racer (and maybe an extra 70 for a platformer) and GameCube games, because backward compatibility, which the 3DS had, didn't carry it, in the countries still recovering from inflation and tariffs.

I know it's a stronger lineup but I'm morbidly interested.
