Why does Nintendo have to match the budget of Sony and Microsoft when their games (and the Switch) already sell so well?

Well they should match budget if they are charging more of a premium on their games that also never go on sale

That's not a reason to match the budget of Sony and Microsoft lmao. Nintendo games do go on sale (just shows how much you don't know about them), but they don't drop in price simply because they still sell well even as years go by e.g. Mario Kart 8 sold 6.3 million copies from April 2022 to December 2022, despite being a game from 2014.

Well it doesn’t change the fact they are dead last 😂 in the sales department and networth, sure they sell a lot of switches but outta the big three companies they are worth the lowest amount

LMAO why are you comparing the net worth of Nintendo to companies that do stuff beyond gaming? Obviously, Microsoft and Sony are worth more because they're not just gaming companies.

Like toys and merch? Riiiight, because they hold the same value as Microsoft's several software and Sony's tech products lol

Thank you for showing us why Nintendo doesn't have to match the budget of Sony and Microsoft. Because customers (you) still buy them regardless.

So, again, why would they match the budget of the others if their products keep selling?

I guess they aren’t trying to be competitive but still they can innovate
