Definitely a <$10 game!
It's never been that cheap on any platform - how do you figure it's a <$10 game 2 months after launch on Switch? Especially for a game that's been very well-reviewed by users and critics, won awards, etc..

Well, the person he replied to said maybe wait for a lower price. He replied that <$10 seemed a good range to wait for... I'm not sure what you are reading into this, but that's it. Nobody is suggesting that it's dropping to $10 now, but maybe in a year or so.

Great game. More companies need to focus on quality games that doesn't just drain you of time and energy. More gamers need to get out of the boomer mindset of games MUST have 100000000 hours of boring content and chores to be worth it.
$25 is over priced on NS. It was sold less than $15 on other platform, including physical copy deals.
Good old Nintendo tax. Everything is more expensive on their consoles whilte running the absolute worst of any platform. And they happily annihalate your digital library of all those overpriced purchases whenever they feel like it, as they did with the Wii, Wii u, and 3ds.
Really people need to go PC, and they need to make backups of everything.

Seriously people game on what works for them. Some people pay the Nintendo tax because the ease and accessibility of their ecosystem.
Nintendo rugpulls those who bought into the previous generation (or two) whenever they move on to a new generation. It's a fact. Those who made digital purchases on those Wii, wii U, DS and 3ds cannot access their games. They cannot play online, even though all the infrastructure was there already and it's inexpensive to just keep some obscure server humming somewhere.
Why support a company like that? Just get a PC based solution like a Steamdeck or the HP Victus $400 gaming laptop on sale right now. Consoles box you in, charge your more, offer you less, and it is in everyone's interest to abandon them.
For god's sake, PC allows you to change graphical settings and turn off horrible crap like bloom and motion blur, while applying desirable things like extensive antialiasing. That single QOL improvement is absolutely priceless.
I think the only really valid reason is "my friends play on X console, so I play on X console."

I'm probably going to regret this, because you seem anti-nintendo and no matter what I say you are going to argue, but I will try.
It's possible it may have changed, but I believe you are incorrect. You cannot make new purchases, but you can still download all of your past purchases for those systems. But even if that is not the case, why are you under the belief that a company should keep the digital portal open indefinitely? Until you can give me actual numbers, I don't believe the whole "it's not expensive." All servers require power, cooling, upkeep/maintenance, plus the infrastructure for it. It's not cheap. Plus, unless one is really naive, they had to know that digital storefronts, especially for a console, are dated and will eventually shutter.

However...
It's been available at local libraries for free to rent. Can easily beat in a week or two
I rented on PS5 in the Philadelphia area at my local library
