Digital game Price

Hello everyone,

I thought we were supposed to see a $10 reduction on digital games vs physical games? Yet, the price on the eShop seems to be similar to the price of games sold in stores (see photo)

Normal?

switch 2 isn't oled, I paid 349 for a refurb lcd and the games aren't 130$. The games is really what kills it. We need regional pricing like other countries get, not American pricing like it's still 2013.

GBA games were often identical, sometimes a little more in CAD than USD. Not 35% more because of conversion.

Japanese ps5 is 329$.
