Many are complaining about the price of Skyward Sword HD, but the game is priced fairly.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "The Nintendo Switch has been one Nintendo’s most successful systems ever, both measured by the number of units sold and the quality of its titles, but if there’s one thing this generation has been missing it would have to be the Nintendo Selects line, bringing existing titles that had paid their dues back at bargain prices. With the Switch now entering its twilight years, and there being few new titles in store for the foreseeable future, what better time could there be to bring back this tried-and-true tradition? While the actual realization of it may be doubtful given how rigid both hardware and software prices have become in recent years, that only gives us all the more reason to dream up a hypothetical lineup of our own.
For this article the specific focus will not be on those massive multi-million evergreens that the lineup would no doubt contain a few of to cement its value, but instead on games that for one reason or another fell short of their full potential the first time around and deserve a second chance to reach more players at an affordable price. Let’s get started."
I really want Xenoblade Chronicles X on the Switch, can't believe that hasen't been ported. I'm playing Skyward Sword at the moment and I'm almost finished, but it's so long and the controls are so bad, even without motion. Astral Chain is fantastic though, they should make a sequel.

I played Skyward until the bird part. I couldn't get into it. As for the Switch being in the middle of its life Cycle, it is nearing the end of it. It is almost 4 years old. 2022 Switch 2 will release.
I haven't played this game I will buy it just to play it I hear its a pretty good game.
No it does not, and it isn't priced fairly.
Oh puhhhlease.
How many PC modders make HD texture packs for existing games and for free!?
Are you a game journalist? You just go set a code for different values. It’s literally take existing code and altering unless there’s added content or updates to gameplay. This isn’t some AAA blockbuster being built from the ground up.
Look at Diablo 2 that’s being remastered. It’s a $40 game. Look at the Resident Evil HD Remasters, those were $20 at launch.
So, no, the price isn’t warranted. I mean Saga Frontier HD and Legend of Mana HD aren’t even full price.
imagine being so DUMB you're willing to defend scummy practices from a company clearly trying to nickel and dime their loyal fanbase by selling a remastered 10 yo game for a price higher than it launched 10 years ago! the fvck are you talking about things like remapping the controls like it's only Nintendo that is exclusively doing it?
Sony fully remastered Gravity Rush completed with graphical rehaul, remapped control from motion control on Vita to controller mapping on PS4 and it looks better than any Nintendo game ever made still to this day, but only charged $30. and then make a whole new sequel for it - Gravity Rush 2 natively for PS4 and sells it for $40.
others sell remasters for 30 to 40 bucks, even 3 games for that price. not just remasters, also remakes like Activision with Crash and Spyro recently. so why instead of urging Nintendo to follow these extremely great consumer-friendly practices from others you chose to make a sheepish article defending them? how dumb can you possibly be?
