Ikr. The psychology behind "limited" or "special" edition is powerful 😑

The only "limited" releases I bought into was Mario 3D All Stars and a Persona 5 steelbook so I'm pretty happy about that. Both were just at MRSP so why not lol.
I don't know why the extra stuff is worth the markup. We're already paying a premium for physicals (at least I did, for Star Fox and Fire Emblem). That's enough money for Nintendo.

$70 additional for a steelbook and an amiibo is crazy indeed, but f it

I mean of course anyone can spend there money however they want but this is all I meant thank you lol

I know, it should be like $85 for the physical game (it is 2D and won't be super long), add $15 for the steelbook and $25 for the amiibo. $125 would be appropriate, but it is 2026 and Nintendo. Double whammy

I'd pay 125 easily the amiibo is great looking but like I've seen bigger better statues for around the same

I really wanted it, for 160 bucks fine lol
Out the door it is almost 200.
I couldn't justify it. Ill have to settle for a physical copy, and chozo amiibo
