Went to Target in my area because they allegedly had a physical copy for $49.99 and they didn't have any. Went to the Wal-Mart nearby and they had a few copies with no price showing on the case. Rang up for $44.88 which is the lowest price I have seen this game on the switch. Brickseek link below. It has been 20+ years since I worked at Wal-Mart, but I believe that anything ending in 0.88 is a clearance item.

Came up to 48.58 with tax.

this will be like the ni no kuni releases on ps4 and switch. the switch copy will stay expensive while the ps4 version will be $15 within a year.
for dragon quest 11s, the ps4 version will obviously be able to render at 1080p 100% of the time. i'm pretty sure the switch one has dynamic resolution that maxes out at 720p.
get the switch one if you absolutely need handheld play. otherwise, just wait for the ps4 copy to go on sale for $15 and save $30 to buy 2 more ps4 games that go on sale lol

Along with portability, the Switch version offers other features such as the ability to change between HD or 16-bit visuals, symphonic or synth music, and English or Japanese audio.
$40 full msrp right now. it'll go down to $15 within a year for sure

I love people posting about the cheaper PS4 or XB1 version when the post clearly states Nintendo Switch Version. Yeah, I have the PS4 version, but I got to have my portable DQXI fix!

Apart from Spyro (which that has been the regular price for the longest time) the others are recent releases, and all are still actively stocked. Maybe the aforementioned price suffix had the significance you suggest back in the day but it does not in this day & age. Unlike GameStop's .97 suffix for designating a clearance item, offhand I can't think of an analogous convention that Walmart uses.
edit: possibly double zero's judging from my clearance purchases there over the past year, but not entirely certain as to how universal this is
Additionally, it's on Xbox Game Pass and has xbox/pc cross buy with Xbox Play Anywhere.
