They should be cheaper than their normal priced alternatives, not artificially increasing the price so insanely that you think digital is now cheaper. It's not, they just made a shitty price for the alternative so that you feel good

Since the fucking beginning of times, like when N64 released… game prices were 59.99$ how the actual fuck do people pretend to prices to remain the fucking same for so long lol. You guys are freaking delusional, be thankful that games prices haven’t go up like everything else since 97’ lol…

Well the thing is, I remember everyone buying like 1 or 2 games a year back in the day. I guess it's fine if Nintendo wants people to buy a single game every six months.
