Maybe port the rest of the series to PC too, let people play everything back from the PS2/PS3/PSP/PS4.

Besides the original PS2 trio bundle for PS3 (and Size Matters from PSP to PS2), all the games are stuck on their original platforms.

Maybe try that simultaneous release strategy everyone else uses.

I suspect it will see some more sales when it goes on a discount. It takes a hype cycle to get people to pay $80 (cad, in my case) and a timed exclusive of a known quantity story driven game does not have a hype cycle.

People want to buy the brand new exciting new chapter, they're less keen on catching up to a now old story

"Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart" is the title they're trying to click bait you with. You're welcome.
