@Fred13 You don't have to bark at me in caps. We can have a civil discussion without resorting to that.

I will reiterate: they have a right to charge whatever they want for their products, and I have a right to purchase them or not. That much we can agree on. I think the reason why you are seeing people up in arms about this is because it is not typical for Nintendo to ever do something like this. They have never in their 30+ years of selling video games sold a bundle for the exact sum if its individual parts. They have always created a monetary incentive to buy something like this (i.e. a marginally smaller price point). This is a symptom of a much larger trend among Nintendo that I don't particularly care for. The Wii sold better than the Switch is selling but Nintendo never made artificially padded Wii bundles and sold them for more than the collective MSRP of their items.

I, like you, I am entitled to my opinion and as long as I can deliver it in a civil, logical way, I should be able to post it in the comments section of an article on the topic without someone snapping at me in all caps. I hate to say it, but you are likely in the minority of people that think this is completely par for the course for Nintendo. This is not something they have ever done, and it represents a shift in the company that many people are disappointed in and I think they are completely valid in expressing that disappointment.
