The Game Business - Nintendo Switch 2 sales stumble over Christmas

It's always about games + price. Mario, Zelda & Pokemon will come but I'm not sure what Nintendo will do with S2 price. Maybe a Lite model or a TV console for $80-100 less than standard S2 would open some doors. I think a TV console would work better this time since S2's main improvement over S1, the graphics, show up more on the big screen.
I think all of that should be pushed.

  • Consolized Switch 2
  • Switch 2 Lite. Leave TV output be, people should be able to buy a dock if they want.
  • An OLED S2 with better battery life.
Give folks variety and variety in pricing and more sales will follow.
 
It is called a discussion. There is context and several posts. "I don't get your point but I didn't read lol".

But I see that you finally agree so you eventually understood.
Sorry I was being kind because I more or less read the thread at one point or another and possibly you said something in some post I didn't catch that changed what I thought was the point.

Turns out what I said was your point was correct because you just said I understood and all I did in my last post was repeat myself. And my point is yours doesn't make any sense. :)

The supposed 3ds great launch plan didn't help the 3ds avoid needing an emergency price drop and having a terrible first 6 months.

Ergo it's no proof that a so called better launch plan would have helped S2 launch do even better. IT's really an indication, if we assume it was so much better in the first place, that it matters none at the end of the day.

If they manage to release a 249$ Switch 2 Lite, it would be a success, but I doubt they can go below 300.
