Nintendo has a very unique grasp on the gaming market. They are kind of in a world of their own because there are some people that ONLY play Nintendo and don't even contemplate getting anything else because of, I dunno, just because that is what they have always done.
$20 would be a good price point for this game but Nintendo knows that Zelda is one of the most revered franchises of all time and they can get away with selling 1 million of them at $60 instead of 3 million at $20 and still make the same profits.
$60 is too much for me for any game. I am only playing the games that my frivolously-spending friend purchased physical copies of.
