This leaked a few weeks ago, very nice.

So no remake then or this is what switch gets?

Switch Successor: expect me next year with some improved games
Current Switch: I’m still relevant

Nicee. I played it back on ps3, but if the port is ok, I’ll definitely play it again.

It seems like Rockstar managed to recover the game’s code? I read they haven’t been able to port this game to any other system for years due to the spaghetti code of the original version.

Is it getting a physical release?
thickwonga
so, basically just a port of the ps3 game? coming to ONLY the switch and ps4? no ps5 version, or a pc release? AND its not a remake, or even a remaster?
rockstar once again choosing the laziest option for a product that isnt GTA V.

All i can say is… What the fuck?
This is amazing btw

One of my fav games of all time

Hoping for $20 but expecting $30
I’d still pay that but probably want to confirm it doesn’t run like ass.

This release makes the Switch my all time favorite console.

Oof £39.99 pre-order is a bit steep for a two generations-old game
GiveUpTheKingOfLimbs
50$ port and no multiplayer. oof

I get they probably wanted to play it safe and stick with porting the original game probably because GTA Trilogy crashed and burned (which was not the game’s fault it was just a shitty remaster), but JUST Switch and PS4 is hilarious lol
Also $50 for a straight port when you can pick up literally the exact same game on Xbox for 6 bucks tops during a sale might be worth it to some who’ve never played the game, especially if you’re on Switch or you’ve only played RDR2, but that’s fucking ludicrous pricing right there

A very great game, if you never got a chance to try it out back then. A bit of a slow start, but worth it.

Rdr1 is honestly better than 2
schuey_08
This kind of thing is nowhere near as novel and exciting as it would’ve been in 2018. And $50? With Rockstar’s Switch porting history, I think I’m for sure skipping this. I’m definitely ready for the next piece of Nintendo hardware when it comes to third party support on this level.

> Includes Undead Nightmare
Well Holy shit.
DLC back then was awesome. Undead Nightmare and Infamous Vampires were $10 and $5. What the fuck went wrong? That much now won’t even get you a single skin in most games if you’re lucky.

Worth every single penny.

When I bought the Switch I did not expect so much of the AAA gaming base to be ports of things I couldn’t play ten years ago when they weren’t on the Wii.

2008-2012 Rockstar games are absolutely GOATed and we need them all on Switch. GTA IV and Max Payne 3 I need so bad
lanbuckjames
Man wtf. I beat Persona 3 a few months ago and they announced a remake right after I beat it.
I literally beat RDR again TWO WEEKS AGO. And they announce a rerelease right after I beat it.
FrozenFrac
About time! I get RDR2 might be asking a bit much for the Switch, but the original felt like it should have been ported a while back! I’m super excited for everyone who gets to play this for the first time!
eugenethegrappler
Very nice! Never played it but I’m looking forward to playing it on my switch.
Evanglical_LibLeft
WHAT THE FUCK
VerballyStanding
Give me gyro and I will give this game another go. I never finished RDR on Xbox 360. Sticks suck and auto aim made it too easy and not fun.
ughlump
Wow this is the first time in a long time that I got genuinely excited about a rerelease title!
However, I’ll still wait for a sale and reviews.

MGS collection, now this, Switch really has the best library now. The only game left to see on the Switch is Chrono Trigger. Hopefully as a HD-2D remake and not a straight up port.
J_House1999
Don’t care, just give us Twilight Princess
VeryChaoticBlades
First reaction: ***”…What?!”***
Two seconds later: *remembers GTA: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition*
mustached-madman
The switch is really going out with a bang! Red dead, Arkham trilogy, metal gear solid collection. I won’t need a new console for another 2 years
askstoomany
I always hear how RDR2 is one of the best games ever. Is this first version close?
I’ve never played either.
Recent_Ice
Makes you wonder why rockstar never put gta5 (PS3 version) on switch
Lyalla
How will I ever escape my backlog.
b3anz129
wow looks like we made it to the big leagues boys
mrcrowface3421
Can we just get gta 6 before we die damn
PrinnyWantsSardines
Hitting constant 15fps probably
asquirrelformytable
NO FUCKING WAY. In my 7 years of owning a Switch this might be the most exciting news I’ve ever gotten, just behind the Link’s Awakening remake announcement.
