Why does nobody question the price tag in general? 60 USD for a remake, sounds outrageous, no matter what platform.

Because it's a remake. Meaning, it's been re-made. Not remastered. Not reusing assets. Built from scratch. That costs money. If anything, it cost Capcom even more money than the original did, so it's actually impressive that it costs the same now as it did when the original came out.

And porting it to Apple's platforms costs even more money, on top of all that.

By the way you can buy the game for almost half price on other platforms in digital and physical form as well. They are just taking the piss.

Fat lot of good that does for the people who don't own those platforms.
