talk about dramatic. They've already sold 1.5 million Switches in Japan and this is under the circumstances of them being limited by the amount of parts available to produce high quality portable devices. Partially they're limited, and partially they didn't anticipate demand would be this high. and Sony take advantage of it? how? make a copy-cat device that will fail to conquer the Japanese market from Nintendo? rush to spend a lot in development of a similar concept that'll take a year or two to come out, at which point Nintendo will have already solved the production problems long ago and will have a system with a large library? Even if Sony had some sort of handheld hybrid plan up their sleeves I don't think they honestly have any possibility of combating the likes of Nintendo releasing Pokemon and Animal Crossing on the Switch. There's a reason Nintendo owns the video game handheld market, regardless of production difficulties (which, again, are partially out of their control) |
What the fuck is wrong with you? Why shouldn't they lose interest? Happens to every kind of product, not just the Switch. No stock = less interest for some people.
Sony would do what any rival company does when their competition is in short supply, advertise, advertise, advertise. Contrary to what you may believe, the Switch isn't such a revolutionary concept that Sony nor MS need to jump on board and "copy-cat" the device. It is to advertise though.
Quite the fucking logic leap you took there though, somehow you got "Make a copy cat device" and then tried to go into detail as to why it would fail rather than just rationalize that there are many myriads of ways that Sony could take advantage of low stock... but yes, that is totally what I was thinking when I said Sony should take advantage of this situation. Yep. Definitely. 
XD
Jesus Christ though, no reason to get this worked up over a stupid toy.
