Well, the solution is very simple. Just don't buy it. The more people buy games like this at such high prices the more publishers are going to put those prices on their games. If people just refuse to pay these ridiculous price then they won't happen as much anymore.

Catch-22.  Because then they won't port the games over at all.

That's very unlikely at this point. The Switch is the hottest platform around at the moment, and it's going to be around for many more years to come. Ignoring a console base of over 50 million sold units is just bad business at that point. Publishers pricing games like that is just them testing the waters on what they can actually get away with, and if they see that people will just pay whatever price they set for even older games like stranger's Wrath, then of course they are going to price them accordingly. If, however, the sales aren't there they will have to either drop the prices, or leave a massive potential customer base completely untapped, which is something that goes against everything game publishers believe in.
