Perhaps I should have clarified, while I see a smaller, less powerful Switch filling the handheld void alongside it's full-fledged "portable console" counterpart being a possibility, in that instance the console would have to feature exclusives which fully utilize its superior hardware to justify its claims of being a console, as well as the higher price point. Basically, it wouldn't just be the minor difference you see between the PS4 and PS4 Pro, but instead would feature exclusives and the like. To do otherwise would be to hamstring a console that is already on the tail end of console hardware capabilities. |
And why the hell would the current Switch be significantly more powerful than a Switch mini? 2 years from now it will be pretty easy for Nintendo to make a smaller version as capable as the original one, actually they could make it even more powerful if they wanted to.
It makes 0 sense to develop something weaker and spread development teams and resources between 2 different systems when you can have a Switch mini as capable as the current Switch sharing the whole library. Even if it's a bit less powerful it could have a shared library... look at how much more powerful the Xbox One X is when compared to the OG Xbox One. It's quite a jump and they will still have a 100% shared library.
Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won
