Gotta love that $60 price tag for a game that will be over 80 f***ing months old when it launches. Ludicrous....It's a good addition to the Switch's library and all, but Jesus tapdancing Christ. Nice price.

I agree. And, really, I think the ridiculous pricing of many Switch games is my biggest complaint about the system. As an owner of multiple systems, it is very hard for me to pick up a multiplat on Switch when it is either more expensive, has dialed back performance, or both, compared to other systems.

Yeah, and those are things a multi console may want to weigh when choosing what system to buy their multiplats on. This though, is a particularly egregious example of price gouging. The market bears prices like this with Nintendo software from the Wii-U. Will the same be true for a third party title that's much older? I had a similar, but less strong opinion with DCKTF several months ago, thinking it maybe should cost less. I think I even compared it to the same Sega games. Ha. This isn't a Nintendo game though, and it's positively ancient. Off the top of my head, the only other example I can think of that's as bad as this is the BulletStorm: Full Clip Edition. It also launched at full price, and was just slightly shorter ( 73 months ) in the duration of time between its initial release and the launch of its remaster.
