New Skyrim version for Switch, first Nintendo game for $70

Did you wish for yet another version for a 10+ years old game?
Well, whether you did or not, you're gonna get it... again.

But this time, there's a little caveat.
While the Anniversary Edition seems to offer almost every add-on available for Skyrim in a single package, alongside some new Creation Club content, the price tag for the new version becomes the very first Nintendo game to be offered at a full price tag of $70 and, according to Nintendo's site, seems to be a digital only release at the moment of writing.

While users can still purchase the previous version of Skyrim on Switch for $60 (which hasn't lowered in price since release), the new exclusive Anniversary Edition currently sits at the new full $70 dollars price tag.
It is currently unknown if other devs, or if even Nintendo themselves, will start releasing games for this new full price of $70 for Nintendo or other consoles going forward, but most likely this will be an inevitable event to unfold in the near future.

The cherry on top is that this version of Skyrim runs like shit as well even compared to original release on Switch. Modders have found that basically the Bethesda is using a mod-loading mechanism to insert new content however they have overloaded it with 70+ mods making the game have performance issues.

The hell does Bethesda think they can charge this for? They still can't even be bothered to finish the game for fucks sakes!

Nevermind you need the mods to even fix the bugs Bethesda won't. None of which are applicable on a console without getting your account banned.

I swear to God, it makes me genuinely angry

People who are buying this garbage shouldn't be allowed to vote and should be placed under guardianship
