Hype Around Upcoming Nintendo Game Apparently Fails to Faze Walmart’s Pricing Strategy

Kirby and The Forgotten Lands is out all over globally and is causing the critics to give some major acclaiming reviews to the game. The game is what Nintendo does at its best – creating a masterpiece. Fans are absolutely loving this title and have posted very positive remarks about the same.

Those fans who haven’t had the chance to grab the game yet must have been trying their best to get hold of their copies. However, Walmart has come up with disappointing news for the fans. Here is how it spans out, as you can read in this tweet below.

Walmart disappoint Nintendo fans with no apparent discount on Kirby and the Forgotten Lands

Walmart had usually maintained a tradition to give a discount of $10 to new releases of games in their stores. This means that most games are available at a highly cheaper price at the stores and was an attractive way for the players to grab games at cheaper rates.

However, it seems like this is not being followed in the case of Kirby and the Forgotten Lands. The game, which is ideally available at $58.88 is being sold at the same price instead of being applied a discount which fans were eagerly looking forward to.

While the release of this game coincides with the same period as Elden Ring being released, with both the games being released at the same time. Both the games have garnered heavily positive remarks from the gaming community and have become a delight for the gamers to play. Fans have started raising questions on the fact that Elden Ring is almost $8 cheaper than the new Kirby game. Here are some of the reactions.

However, Wario later proved this price difference by stating that Elden Ring is an ‘unproven franchise’ while Kirby is an ‘established proven franchise’.

Here is a funny name that a fan has come up with for the game and Walmart’s adamant pricing.
