The Switch has a much better outlook than the Wii U at the moment judging by the enthusiasm and pre-release hype for it.

But as I've said in other threads, if the Switch turns out to be yet another console supported strictly by Nintendo and their close partners, and the new gimmick of the enhanced rumble / motion controls fails to catch on the same way the Wii U's game pad did, then we could be looking at another Wii U situation a year or two down the road.

This is now the third time in a row Nintendo has launched an underpowered console coupled with a new controller gimmick that tries to appeal to non-traditional gamers at the expense of "core" gamers. Nintendo's fanbase alone can't support it forever.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.
