You gave a good reason why the Switch won't replace the 3DS in your remarks that Nintendo would be financially stable if their home console failed but not their handheld division. The battery life is not good enough to be considered a replacement to the 3DS, although I think most people play 3DS at home, but still. Nintendo isn't going to lump those two together for multiple reasons. But I could be wrong. OR OR OR maybe Nintendo's next handheld could act as a replacement for the Switch controller but not mandatory to be used with Switch. Sounds kind of gimmicky actually... |
Price, size & battery life are reasons why Switch likely won't be a replacement for 3DS.........but what happens in 1.5-2 years when Nintendo releases a Switch Lite that is cheaper, smaller & has a longer battery life?
In my opinion, that is when Switch will become the 3DS successor.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
