MODERATORS
They sold more than 10 million units last year. I assume they’ll end up selling millions this year too.
A lot of the owners already got their system 4+ years. Likely more. People are going to look into more powerful hardware some day. Nintendo should be ahead of that and let them be the one with the more powerful hardware.
That wasn’t your original point though. Fact is that millions of people who might want a Switch don’t have one.
@Rynelan Nintendo has literally never been the one to out-power the competition with their hardware.
Not out-powering I know but if they have something better than now then it's easier to choose for Nintendo again instead of a Steam Deck or something similar
