Can't believe the switch is becoming a port console. SR3 is an excellent game tho but it's a bit of a let down that such an old title is being ported.

You are aware you're suggesting that a game from the X360/PS3 would be impossible to port to the Switch yeah? Just putting that out there.

Seems a bit random, but a good game nontheless

I may just pick this up. I've never played these games, and i'll never play the 1st 2. I hate grand theft auto, but i do really like open world games.

I can.  Ports take little time and effort.  Original games take much more time.  Right now Switch is getting ports, because a lot of companies are just trying to put whatever games they can on the platform.  So the first wave of games are mostly ports. 

I don't think Switch will be just a port console in a couple of years.  Give it time.  Original games are going to be flooding in in a year or two.  Give it time.
