Soundwave said: 2DS was a failure overall IMO. Did not do much of anything for 3DS sales. A larger screen Switch will sell better than a "mini Switch". |
That may be one appeal in the current Switch popularity, while not the only one. The point with making a mini Switch would not be to combat that appeal, but to accommodate for a 3DS replacement that is viable to the existing handheld developers as well as to the younger players who would drive the sales. If they were to bring those into the Switch fold, then the Switch library would explode as well as sales and in turn even more titles, and so on and so forth, in a cycle that would ride the system's life and possibly carry into the next few generations. It is a needed step in the transition. Who knows where the potential will end with Switch, but it must be taken advantage of while it's cultural and commercial definition is being established.
