Update: Since this article’s posting, multiple retailers have decided to halt preorders of the physical version of the game. It adds a little more credibility to the possibility that the $70 price may be real, but revealed by Nintendo by accident.
One game that is more than likely going to be appearing in the upcoming Nintendo Direct, if not guaranteed, is the sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. In fact, a strange development that occurred tonight may have all but confirmed that The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom will be there.
You see, it was discovered that the game’s listing on the eShop was updated to have a price of $69.99. About an hour later, the price mysteriously vanished. It’s likely that, because the physical version was still $59.99 at retailers, it was merely an error of some kind on Nintendo’s part.
Whatever the reason was, there is less than a day to go before the Nintendo Direct is slated to premiere. So, things will more than likely be sorted out soon enough. You can see a couple of tweets from Wario64 about the matter down below.
