I mean, game pricing isn't solely a Switch 2 problem. They cost the same as any new game on any other platform, beside for Mario Kart, which I agree is a mistake and not a good look.
I enjoyed Bananza and Pokopia. Bananza had me wanting to keep playing the entire time and Pokopia held me for 100 hours. Depends what kind of games you like. I also enjoyed Mario Kart, but you'd probably want that and something else, like DK to split your time.
The price is a switch 2 problem because they rarely discount their games and in the event they do, they never go for under 20% off.
It seems Nintendo is getting better about this though. During the later half of the switch 1s life their first party games have gone on sale for 33% off multiple times (botw, donkey Kong Country games, Mario Kart, xenoblade and more from what I have seen). It's just that this is only the digital versions. Physical copies? Yeah, you're right there.
Games are still too expensive at full price though and even with 33% off it is still usually too much for me if I'm not already familiar with the franchise and know I will enjoy the game.
