You can grab the Switch version for just $10 via the eShop (normally $40), and those who prefer buying physical media can snag a copy for $43.54 at Amazon. Generations Ultimate is out of print now, so physical edition prices fluctuate regularly.

If you only want one old Monster Hunter game, Generations Ultimate is the ideal pick.
