The argument “it looks worse so it should be cheaper” is kind of questionable, when the console they are buying it for just doesn’t allow for much better considering the art direction.
I disagree.
When you have to pay the same or more for something less then that’s simply not justified for the consumer. If the console can’t handle anything better and is that expensive to port over, then you should simply not port your game over to it. If that’s a general Switch problem, then the Switch maybe shouldn’t be a thing either. I thought that’s how markets are supposed to work, no?
But it’s not something less, it’s something less, in your device. That’s the distinction.

If enough people want to play it on the switch, the investment is worth it.

Well, if it were up to you maybe, but if there’s enough people that will buy it just to play it on the switch, then the markets are working as intended.

Lot’s of hypothetical “ifs” there that are seemingly in direct contradiction to this topic.
You can call it less because you only value graphics. Someone else can call it more because it’s portable.
Discounting the most expensive port to do doesn’t make sense.
It’s portable. That’s what you’re paying for.
