Why do you keep ignoring what I say?  I had to stop reading after the first sentence because you refuse to actually read what I say.  I was saying power is one of the reasons why Switch sells.  Do you think if switch was weak ass hardware like the vita it would have the same demand?  Or if it was portable only?  I doubt it. 

 

My point was if 3DS was much more powerful,  I didn't say much more expensive. If 3DS was a powerhouse hybrid and had the Wii U games library it would have done so much better.  Instead it was a weak handheld only and therefore didn't give the consumer good value at that launch price point. 

 

Now if you'd like to actually read what I say I'll have no problem doing likewise.  Other wise you're wasting your time writing long replies. 

Lol, but I answered to you on that, power is not what is selling Nintendo hardware, stronger 3DS with higher price point wouldnt sell better. No, you were saying that more powerful 3DS would sell better. If Switch is powerful like Vita it couldn't really work like home console, Switch has enuf power that can run like solid hybrid devaice, and people buying Switch beacuse has great value like hybrid devaice.

But greater power comes with higher price point. Again, Its hard to talk what would be if Wii U didn't exist, or if 3DS would stronger and much more expensive, talk like that is totaly pointless. But fact is that 3DS needed huge price cut to $170 to start selling, and that 3DS killed Vita in sales despite Vita was much stronger.

I read everything you wrote and I answered on every single your point, but like usual you are one that keep ignoring clear facts.

Power is definitely one selling point.  I never said the only.  If the Switch was weaker it wouldn't justify it's price and wouldn't be as attractive.  Power is definitely a selling point and you should stop denying that.  Note: I never said the only selling point.

Why is it always "either you win, or you lose" with gamers? The PS4 is still a success in Japan and selling well.

Because the ps4 is doomed narrative was pushed around for its first 2 years in Japan.  People just can't accept they were wrong and give it credit.  For a traditional home console ps4 is doing very well.  

 

I remember the days when people said things like,  it will never pass Wii U or vita.  Or it will never beat 5m. And now it's on the road to 10m. Doing good for itself.
