Like I wrote, 1,2 Switch is only game that requires to use Joy Cons separate, all other games would works same on base Switch and Switch Mini/Pocket that would have built in controls. They are no need for any confusion, base Switch, bigger package and much more expensive, it can be used like home console and handheld, Switch Mini/Pocket (or whatever name) that is much smaller, smaller package and much cheaper (around $100), just for handheld play. Don't forget, 2DS dont supports 3D like 3DS, and base 3DS dont support some games that are supported only buy New 3DS. There are plenty possibilities, but what I wrote is most logical and most likely scenario that Nintendo will do. Also good posibilite is later for Switch XL or PRO, more expensive Switch, with bigger 1080p screen that will run games in portable mode same like is currently running them in docked mode. |
1, 2 Switch is not the only game that requires the use of joycons. But even if it was, the system is only three months old, there could be dozens of games that require joycon use released over the next few years. Also, Nintendo has never in its history released a new model that had lesser game compatibility (not counting backwards compatibility) than the model before it, and now it's more reasonable to expect them to do this than release a successor to a console that's sold around 70 million units world wide?
And fantastic backpeddaling there. There's a huge gap between "most logical and most likely" and "just as likely to not happen as it is for Nintendo to stop selling the Switch next year". But hey, at least it appears you're admitting that Nintendo's future is not as obvious as you pretended it to be.
