That assumes people actually buy it though. Everyone already has this game, so I would expect most of the sales to come from the upgrade pack and not the $90 switch 2 edition. Nintendo usually makes bank by selling old games at full price with a generational console gap.
Tons of the full price successful "remasters" on Switch were Wii games which people no longer used, and Wii U games which no one originally bought.
On the other hand, the last time I didn't see Nintendo make bank on literally zero effort was never, so I'm not that hopeful that people won't just shill out for this scam too.
