In hindsight it makes sense that $200 is the base price for Retro's next game

If Fallout 3 Remastered really does exist, I can imagine it making it's way over to the Switch so it's probably one of the SKUs in the OP.

Why would I make a separate thread. The twitter thread states explicitly that there are 21 unknown Switch SKUs, as well as more than 20 PS4 and a little less for Xbox. It seems pointless to create so many threads when there's literally no other information other than what I just wrote.
It's not pointless. We're here to discuss games. We can speculate on what these games will be. We could do the same if you made a PS4 specific thread...

People do that yeah. Sun and Moon got a double pack with a steelbook
OH. I didn't realize that. I've never been into the Pokemon games. Thought the only difference between the two versions is an exclusive Pokemon. And ppl would spend double to get that one extra Pokemon? Can't you just trade for it?

Well whatevs. That could be it then. Two games, steel book and other extras... Sure $200

One version for you and one for your friend/sibling/partner/kid/etc. A lot of people do this.

The obvious answers is collectors, plus the fact that it's priced as a regular special edition for a big console game helps. It's also great for parents who have two kids

Yes, that's the only difference. Yes, some people buy both. Yes, you could just trade for the others.

I don't think it's that, though. The S&M pack was $80, the price of both combined, and the steelbook was advertised as a free bonus. They'd be breaking new ground there.

Is there a $200 SKU in the PS4 and XB1 lists?

EDIT:


Very hard to see, but it looks like there's a $199.99 SKU on the PS4 list, so it's probably something like a DOOM:E CE or something else multiplatform

Since the 200$ listing appears on other platforms too, it is probably a Collector Edition of Doom Eternal.

Bethesda has a history of making very expensive editions for their flagship titles.

Could $199 be hardware as in Switch Lite? That would absolutely nuts for an LE. Typical Nintendo LE are $99

I could be misremembering. (It's been a while).

But didn't something like this happen last year and it didn't really amount to a lot? People got hyped for E3 (or maybe it was another direct?) cuase they felt a ton of announcements were coming and whatnot.
