Why would GTA6 need to get itself, silly?

Lack of an included game isn't really the problem here. Since they're limited runs, it allows customers on any platform to buy the collector stuff separately, instead of one platform's selling out before the others'. The fact that the merch is absolute garbage for $400 is the real story here.

Yeah. Personally it sounds reasonable and flexible in theory.

On the other hand, its already 400 bucks. Throw the game in

There has been more expensive games, that seems to be average price

That two things seem unrelated, and looking at Steam seems to be untrue in general.

I'm actually unsure I could point at a base game that was more expensive, though if you'd like to I'll admit I'm wrong on that part!

Nintendo has sold a couple of games more expensive than GTA6 and some of them were from last gen

Ok, I'm looking at the Nintendo UK store (https://store.nintendo.com/en-gb) and seeing unreleased/latest first party games at £58.99.

Have you got a specific example?

Searched some more, I see that Mario Kart World standalone launched at 79.99, but nothing else so far. Maybe I'm missing something else!
