I would say 200K is still good considering the 3DS is fading out. In my opinion, I wouldn't say that this system is dead just yet, but it is most certainly on the way out. Nintendo even said they are still supporting the system. The releases are now further apart, but games are still being released, aren't they? I would still give it at least until next year before we can really say it's dead..
Fairly harsh review and not completely accurate. The first three sequences of the game can be completed within 1-2 hours, not "roughly eight". I have played the original version on PS3 and I also recently got this for the Switch again because I missed out on the dlc and Liberation. Here's what I will agree with: this isn't necessarily a remaster as much as it is a near straight port of the original and the frame rate is not perfect in comparison to a PC. This is going to be obvious however, given the nature of the Switch's power. From what I have played so far, I have noticed the sound crackling that you mentioned and the frame rate dips, but it's not game breaking by any means, at least in my opinion ( and I'll also agree that a patch would be nice to address these issues) .
However, this game is a lot of fun and I never understood really why people were turned off by it because it has a great variety of game play to explore, from hunting, to the homestead missions, to sea faring battles, and of course some traditional Assassins Creed game play. There is lot about this game that is overlooked by the status quo and I believe that is why Ubisoft wanted to re release this game over something like Black Flag, lets say (Black Flag was cross generational which, while was never ported to the Switch, had an audience already on 360, PS3, Xbox one and ps4. I would like to see a Switch port though .
I think Haytham Kenway, Connor, and much of the story is interesting and a lot of thought and depth went into this game. The developers did the research to make use of the Mohawk language to depict historical accuracy in a historically fictional narrative. The game is vast and there is a lot of frontier to explore. There are a variety of missions to keep the game engaging.
One thing I do think that Ubisoft should have done differently is drop the word "remastered" from the title of this game, and maybe gone with something like "Assassin's Creed 3 Collection" or "Anthology" or something to that effect. I don't know, this is just my thought on the subject.
