Anyone else just feel like the e-shop is too damn expensive?

(1/9) > >>

Miyamoto:
In this day and age, considering what you can get for the same price on iOS, PSN or Steam, the e-shop is just too damn much. There's a few games I'd like to try and a few old classics I'd like to replay, but out of sheer principal I can't bring myself to part with £20+ for a handful of games when I compare it to what the money would buy elsewhere. Goddamn Nintendo, I want to give you my money and support your on-line store but you make it difficult when you insist on being so greedy!


Thoughts?

TJ Spyke:
eShop is about the same as PSN and Steam and good games on iOS.

Dude c'mon. Are you crazy? For the price of 4 NES games I can buy 3 PSP games. And don't even get me started on Steam.

TJ Spyke:
Steam does have sales, but that is different. And most PSN games are overpriced. The majority of eShop games are reasonably priced.

Racht:
Agreed, TJ. I feel that the price structure for eShop games is quite good. I paid, what?... $11 for Shantae: Risky's Revenge. It's worth every last penny. Honestly, I would have paid more, too.
