L.A. Noire is discounted down from $89.95 to $19.78 on the Nintendo eShop. The game has some great reviews and is made by Rockstar, who are of course the creators of the GTA series. The next cheapest price that I can see is $29.26 from Amazon AU, if you prefer physical copies. Be aware that you will need an SD card in your Switch to download this game as it's about a 28gb download.
I played through the whole game on switch and don't really remember any overly bad performance issues.
I did skip almost every driving part of the game though.
I played it all the way through too - no performance issues noted, even during all the driving.
lol $90 for an 8-year-old game. Consoles are kinda nuts.
I doubt anyone is actually paying $90 for it, hence the discount, haha.

I don't think Nintendo control the prices and discounts of third party games. Hence the price parity between titles such as CTR and Sonic Racing across all major platforms.
I have no idea either, but what I do know is when Bethesda released their Horse Armour DLC on Xbox a meme was born and everyone thought Bethesda was reaching to have a DLC with just two types of horse armour for ~$5 or something.
Turns out in a recent interview Tod Howard, head honcho of Bethesda, explained that it was not Bethesda's fault and that they originally wanted to sell the DLC for a lot cheaper. But Microsoft turned the screws on them as it would be less than the cost of their inflated wallpapers at the time, so they where forced to up the price to stay in line with the rest of the Xbox marketplace.
This may have nothing in comparison with how Nintendo operates but at least we all learned something about Horse Armour DLC.
I just got this! Had it on PC years ago but lost interest when BF3 came out/performance issues at the time.
It'll make me use my Switch more, and be cool to take when travelling as well.
x for doubt
Had this on Steam for ages and haven't got to playing it.
Got it on VR a while ago when it was free for siging up to some VR monthly thing (which I dropped out of after).. haven't played it…
… still tempted.

iirc people have noted that the game suffers from performance issues on the switch, unless they have updated it recently?
