Pretty sure the game has been $30 or $35 the last few Black Fridays. Also it was $36 just days ago on Woot because of a coupon.

This was originally a Wii game, and a mediocre port. The port of Tropical Freeze was done a lot better whereas this one was hacked together by an outside firm using Unity. Initially it struggled to maintain 60fps on Switch 1, but I think with some updates, it's gotten decent. By now it plays OK and it def plays well on the Switch 2. Most agree that Tropical Freeze is the better game, (and port), but there is a raw / more simplistic charm that this one has over Tropical Freeze. This one's harder.

If that's true, I'll wait for that. My backlog is massive anyway

This recently received a free 4k update for switch 2. It is actually going to play better than tropical freeze which has not gotten an update.
