Summary

Ninja Gaiden 4 pre-orders are live, and they were briefly pretty pricey at Walmart.
The retailer accidentally listed the upcoming game for $999.99.
The price has since been reduced to $79 which is oddly still more than it's supposed to be.

168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Ninja Gaiden 4 now has a release date, which means pre-orders for the next numbered game in the series are starting to go live. The game will be $70, so not one of the Xbox titles 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:making the jump to $80 like The Outer Worldsꦯ 2, although 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Ninja Gaiden fans who raced to Walmart to place their pre-orders might have been met with a very unwelcome sur𒀰prise.

Walmart didn't have 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Ninja Gaiden 4 listed for $70. It didn't even have it listed for $80. No, as pointed out by , the new Ninja Gaiden's pre-order was listed for an eye-watering $999.99. It wasn't some wildly-priced collector's edition, just the standard edition. A mistake on Walmart's end, and the price has now been dropped, although interesti𝕴ngly not to where it's suppoꦗsed to be.

If Team Ninja had thrown a bike in with the game 1ꦅ68澳洲幸运5开奖网:like Capcom did for Monster Hunter Wilds, then it might have been able to get away with asking for 🌊$1,000.

$1,000 For Ninja Gaiden 4, In This Economy?

You Know Someone Would Probably Be Willing To Pay It

Ninja Gaiden 4's standard edition , and . That's despite the sequel being a $70 game with the deluxe edition priced at $90 everywhere else you can currently place a pre-order. My guess is someone listed the game for $999.99 somehow - I'm still unclear on how this kind of thing happens, and it happens more often than you might think - and in their panic to make things right, they've assumed it's going to be 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:one of Xbox's promised $80 games.

Ninja Gaiden fans have joked in the replies that they quickly snapped up multiple copies, with one even going as far as to show off two of them in their cart. An amusing bit, but one I'd be too scared to do myself through fear of accidentally checking out. I'd love to know if Walmart would issue a refund if anyone bought the game at its hugely inflated price point. Whenever a retailer does the opposite and lists something for less than it should be, retailers trip over themselves to get the mo♛ney back and make things right.

One reply says real Ninja Gaiden fans will make it happen, a shot at the comওment Randy Pitchfor🐻d made about Borderlands 4 potentially being an $80 game.

When pricing mistakes like these happen, it tends to be the other way around, and people jump on it quickly in the hope that the retailer will let them stand and not reverse all of the sales. Amazon once sold Nintendo Mario🅰 Red Switch OLED consoles for a p🐬enny each, and last October, Nintendo accidentally listed⛄ its new Joy-Con stand for free, which resulted in i💙t selling out almost instantly.
