Would You Pay $80 for Mario Kart World After That Nintendo Direct?


Listen Later

Nintendo just held a full Nintendo Direct-style presentation for Mario Kart World, and while the game looks fun, there's one thing everyone keeps talking about: that $80 price tag. In this video, I break down everything Nintendo revealed in the latest Mario Kart World overview, including new gameplay features, characters, courses, and power-ups—but was it enough to justify the price?

We’re talking free roam exploration, multiplayer battle modes, and even a rewind mechanic. But with no mention of story mode, included DLC, or any truly unexpected surprises, I question if this showcase actually changed anyone’s mind who was on the fence.

Is Mario Kart World worth $80? Was this Direct-style reveal truly necessary? Are Nintendo fans getting enough value, or is this just a sign of Nintendo games becoming more expensive in the Switch 2 era?

Let’s talk about it.
