Nintendo to start charging different prices for first-party digital and physical games
Nintendo will soon implement different pricing for its first-party Nintendo Switch games, with digital versions receiving a discount compared to physical retail copies. This new strategy begins with "Yoshi and the Mysterious Book" on May 21, which will cost $60 digitally and $70 physically. This change impacts consumers who prefer physical media, as they will no longer receive the same pricing benefits.
