as a Canadian I'm used to everything being expensive as fuck, but I have to draw the line somewhere. this is why piracy exists. I'll probably break down and buy one at the next major Zelda title launch, because I don't get a choice in that. my heart wants what it wants, and I'm getting too old to say no at this point.
If you just want Zelda, a singleplayer game with no expiry / pressure to play while others are playing, you could consider waiting for emulation to catch up. I’m currently enjoying a bunch of singleplayer Switch games on my PC.
Not sure of the official CAD prices, but the $80 USD digital / $90 USD physical game price is $113 / $127 CAD. Absolutely bonkers when compared to Steam, especially with sales.
