In the UK the Switch version is £5 cheaper using prices on eShop, PSN and Xbox Live so there is definitely a lower RRP for the Switch version.

Unless it's 70€ on Playstation and Xbox instead of 60€ like on the Switch I think this might be only in the UK.

In Australia the Game is AUD99 on the PS store and AUD79 on the eshop. 



Around the Network

On Amazon Germany, Switch version is €70 while X1/PS4 are €60.
As for digital I only checked the Xbox store and it's €60 as well.

It was just a matter of they thinking if they would make return on the investment and cutting down to run on the machine as with every other 3rd party. I guess the thinking of 3rd parties hating Nintendo can die.

Mainly because Nintendo did their homework. About time.

How so? As in made a system with standard hardware, easy to develop for?

Well, what I thought was more in the lines of them (Nintendo) creating an environment that is attractive for third parties and building a closer relationship with said parties, but what you said makes sense too and can be included in my reasoning, as it also plays a major part in the success of the Switch.

That's true; right now Nintendo is probably the most third party friendly they have been since at least the Gamecube, if not the SNES.

I assume you're talking about the quality of their hardware.  In terms of their actual relationship with third parties and how they treated them Nintendo was very unfriendly during the SNES years.  It took the failure of the N64 for them to realize they needed third party games.  Nintendo during the Wii and Wii U years was night and day more friendly towards third parties than during the SNES years.

I was talking about the hardware, yeah. Switch uses more standardized hardware with better engine support than Wii/Wii U.



Well hardly a surprise and as I predicted and feared more so.
