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.  

Like people stated, this game is $60 even on PS4/XB1, at least digital. Talking about multplats games on Switch, there are two main reasons why people would buy multiplat games on Switch, first is beacause full handheld mode, second is if they dont own other platform.

The price is a bit too steep, I agree. That being said, it's actually $60 on PS and Xbox too: ttps://store.playstation.com/en-us/product/UP0002-CUSA00242_00-D3ETERNALCOLL000

Guess it's like a GTA V/Skyrim/Nintendo game where the can charge full price and it will sell anyways. Again, I'm not defending the price, just saying that they do it cause it still sells.

Oh snap. I had absolutely no idea that this was out on the other systems too and thought this was a Switch exclusive package. So this is, what, the THIRD edition available for the PS4/XBO? I have the Ultimate Evil Edition, but paid $40 for it in Canada, which is equivalent to $30 US. Still too expensive.

Well later you will probably be able to find phisical copy for lower price point for Switch also, but on eShop will remain $60 same like it is on PS4/XB1.

Even if I got it already on PC, I will get the Switch version. Hopefully I can transfer my characters to the Switch.

Anybody else feel like this announcement should have been a part of a Direct?
I was thinking about why Nintendo didnt held Diablo 3 announcement for next Direct that will most likely be in next month,
maybe because they have bigger 3rd party announcement that would overshadow Diablo 3 announcement!?

I hope this game isn't story-heavy. Just let me get to the ass-kicking.

Exactly this. Sometimes I like story-heavy games, but sometimes in the mood for some ass-kicking. And Diablo 1 did deliver very well, and 2 held up OK. I never played 3 though.

I don't mind story. I love great characters but if cutscenes drag, I get annoyed. Looking forward to this game, hopefully it's good!
