The Big N operates on a different wavelength than Microsoft, or Sony, or anyone, really. That one was especially galling to me because Fates has two additional routes available to users to buy digitally once they’ve finished the one available on the cartridge - and the price for those routes hadn’t changed either. Sure enough, the game I bought for $40 in February 2016 is still $40. The nearest one I had to hand was Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright, which I bought when it launched in the US over two years ago. Most of the examples used in Ashley’s video were from the Switch, so when I decided to check one of my Nintendo games for myself, I looked up a 3DS game. But a big portion of it comes down to the fact that Nintendo knows we’ll buy its stuff because it’s the only company delivering it, so why should it bother giving us a break? And chances are good, if you’re in the above scenario, even the most righteous consternation isn’t going to keep you from buying the game, because it’s not available for other consoles.

While it’s a bit more complicated than it seems at first - Ashley incorporates data about Switch sales, the price of the cartridges and Nintendo‘s quality standards.
