I really enjoyed The Stick of Truth on the PS3, but the Switch is the only current gen console I currently own. I know The Fractured But Whole is on Steam, but I don't agree with the multiple layers of DRM that comes with it. I'm holding out on buying a PS4 until there's enough games that interest me (that I can't get any where else). Some I'm really glad this is coming to the Switch so I can go back to not caring about the PS4.
It's a shame it seems to be a full priced release, but I guess it's not
that old.
I wanted it on the Switch, but ended up getting on PS4. I might double dip later down the line when it's a bit cheaper. I really enjoyed the game, but the story wasn't as clever and it just wasn't as funny as Stick of Truth. That said, the gameplay was a bit more refined and the battle mechanics in particular were much better. Speaking of Stick of Truth, I'm surprised that one isn't coming too. It was released on PS4, XB1 etc and was free with pre-orders of The Fractured But Whole on those platforms... So Switch owners not only have to pay full price for a nearly one year old game, but also get less for their money that PS4 and XB1 owners got.
Still, that said, I agree, it's good news and I hope to pick it up later after a price reduction or two.
