Releasing a remaster is never a problem for me. Not everyone had a PS3, I myself never had one, if there wasn't a remaster I couldn't play it on PS4. The price by the time it was released was fair, and the price decreased over time, as it should

Whether or not SS is worth 60 USD is NOT the point I'm trying to make, for me it's not worth it, and I don't like the game, that's all

The point I'm trying to make is SS situation on Switch is not the same as TLOU on PS4, they are far different.

TLOU on PS4 is like Mario Kart 8 on Switch, nobody is complaining about MK8 Deluxe price regardless if you bought it on Wii U or not, because the price is fair. It comes with some improvements and all DLCs, and is a game that by the time was only 3 years old

Different between MK8 and TLOU is the plaform popularity, with the WiiU being so unpopular that majority never owned or played it outside the small install base the WiiU had. TLOU was on a very popular platform in comparison and the game sold extremely well. Its like them releasing a game from the Virtual Boy, its a rare platform that people would jump on the titles due to the lack of popularity of the platform. 

I was one of the Switch owners of MK8 because i never owned a WiiU so it was my chance on jumping on it. Same for Skyward Swords, the game is that old that many can now play it if they missed out. TLOU is not one of those games that people couldn't play it or have missed their chance in playing it as its original form is still available, tho diminishing rapidly today but not a year after launch. I also think MK8 is overpriced and should have been sold for less regardless of the extra content etc.

Ok but I never had a PS3. Was I supposed to buy a PS3 only to play TLOU ? There are at least 30 million people who like me don't have a PS3, but have a PS4 (and the numbers are probably bigger, as some people went from PS3 to PC skipping PS4)

I don't get that reasoning. It's not like Sony was obligation anybody to buy TLOU again, if you have the PS3 version is sad you couldn't play it on PS4 but releasing remaster is not the issue here
