@Ultimapunch I love that game so much too. It's funny that people didn't get this upset about that game being $50 on Switch as well. It's still $50 with discounts down to $25, which Red Dead Redemption will do too, because Rockstar discounts their games by a maximum of 50% when there is sales.
@Kang81 value is not a legitimate topic for decisions of a review of media content. Just like most people, it has no relevance over if I will play a game or not. 🌿
Why does the reviewer mention the price of the game in the "CON" category? That is completely irrelevant to gameplay and content. Oooofff yikes
And how is this a bare bones release? It comes with a separate stand alone game "Undead Nightmare". If they sold it separately as DLC then that wouldn't be that great. Too many outside forces are pushing on this review.
@SegaTetris it does line up with the market. Skyward sword (no extra content), Mario Bros. U, Pikmin 3 and Metroid Prime ($40 but no extra) are great examples of what I mean. And Red Dead Redemption and Undead Nightmare is better than all of those. I value money more than most I would think since I'm someone who is homeless, disabled, unemployed and can't afford things. I just understand how gaming pricing works in the industry. It's selling very well.
If you mention the price tag in the review of a video game or movie as a reason why the game isn't good, then you aren't a legitimate reviewer in my opinion. It's strange that someone would mention that.
Haven't heard of it. Looks boring to me, like Diablo.
And the review rating will fall. This is a "at this moment..." news story that will change later. These first reviews are from Fanboys that are predisposed to liking this game.
@Megame Switch versions of Wii U games don't come with extras. I don't think the age of the game has any bearing on how much it should cost. Just completely disagree with your arguments. But it's ok.
@Casco So you didn't read my message where I said I own it on Xbox and PlayStation and Steam Deck already and will be waiting for it to go cheaper. Oops you weren't listening
Red Dead Redemption is worth $50 alone for 100 hours and more of gameplay, with the expansion it's worth more. People who complain about this are very strange to me. I haven't heard any good argument about why this isn't a good price point.
That being said, personally I'll be waiting for a sale to pick this up since I have it for PS3, Xbox Series and Steam Deck already.
Nintendo charges $60 for Wii conversion on Switch, this is One of the Best Games Of All Time on PS3 and they are charging less and it includes the expansion.
@PinderSchloss I disagree with all of your assessments of this game. Everything you said that you don't like, I actually do like. One of the best games I've ever played.
@YoshiF2 no, it doesn't. It just means that you have a lot of time on your hands to spends hundreds of hours on a game you don't like and then list things about it.
@PinderSchloss they don't ask for much money to play the game, $70 is nothing to play this game. And I'm homeless and don't have a job and disabled and I consider that to be a bargain to play for hundreds of hours. Nintendo was charging $80 in the '90s for games, so this is quite the bargain for much more game.

Re: Talking Point: Will You Pay $50 For Red Dead Redemption On Switch?
@Astral-Grain @Wexter emulation and Xbox Streaming.
I have Metroid Prime and Zelda on Deck too.... Because of emulation.
Re: Talking Point: Will You Pay $50 For Red Dead Redemption On Switch?
This should've been $30-35 at most. Won't get this until it's deeply discounted as I have it for PS3, XBOX Series and Steam Deck.
