"You don't get a packed in game with Switch" but you're going to make up with that by adding a second gimmick controller?
Doesn't work like that. Wii sports was a great game. It sold the system. It sold motion control.
And when compared to (a month ago) $200 consoles that come with a game and an actual controller - it is very, very expensive. Specially when you consider that the xb1/and ps4 are powerful. There is no fear of them missing out on games. |

Irrrrrrrrrrelevant! All consumers care about is whether or not they deem the price of the Switch to be worth it, and much of that inherent value comes from comparing it to the competition. The Wii was much cheaper than its competitors, the Switch is more expensive. That alone can make people feel the switch is too expensive even if Switch fans can mentally justify the cost because of its features.
Sure, the Switch is "portable" and features "HD rumble", but those features are only worth the cost it adds to the system if people value those features. People are saying they don't see those features as being worth the cost to implement them especially considering that they can get other systems without those features they don't care about for cheaper. |
Value is relative.
Some people like a bonus controller. Not perfect, but convenient and usable enough for a quick coop session of Tetris, Bomberman or something else. I can tell that's not you or you.
All I'm saying is that price is pretty much the same. Scientific fact.

Yes, value is relative. That's the point. People aren't seeing the value in the Nintendo Switch, and many Nintendo fans can't seem to understand that. Even if it's the same price as the Wii, the Wii can be a good price at the time, and the Switch can be too expensive this time around.
