If you don’t need the latest and greatest games and can wait a bit, you get a shit-ton of games on PC (including AAA Games) for la few bucks. Have a look at Humble Choice for example, Steam Sales, Bundles, other legit/official key retailers etc. I mean, fuck Epic but one could solely feed his gaming needs with all the free games they give away constantly.
Nintendo on the other hand: I remember that I bought a switch with Zelda BotK … sold it later on … years later I bought a second hand switch … a lot of time has passed … I wanted to play Zelda again … Zelda BotK did cost the same everywhere as on launch day … only good thing is the cartridge resale value was also always good for first-party Nintendo games.
Yeah, if you're the sort of gamer who sells their games when they're done with them, you can basically rent Nintendo games for the cost of postage and eBay fees... Second hand they're only a few quid less than in the shops.
