Same boat but it's Nintendo so at most it'll drop to £40 and stay there forever.
I think I was actually wrong about the price when I typed that anyway, I've seen it for £45 or so online (at Argos if you're interested), but I still can't justify paying the same again for the same product. It doesn't make sense.
Other publishers are releasing their remastered 'next gen' versions of their titles prices reflecting the fact that these are old products, Skyrim remastered was $40, The Last of Us was $50, Dishonoured was $40, God of War was $40, Ultra Street Fighter IV was $40. These titles also included all previous DLC.
Who knows though, maybe someone at home will split the cost with me. Perhaps selling my old copy of MK8 Wii U will help justify the additional cost, nevertheless it doesn't seem very well priced relative to the rest of the market. On the other hand, it's the only good kart racing game on the market, so from that perspective Nintendo can sell it for whatever they like, and they know that.
