Well, being able to be ok in the eyes of the censors allows the game to be sold there in the first place. That's a huge advantage over games that can't be sold without massive modifications or just can't. Ever.

Ans yeah, the iQue lineup has been selling in China for years now, but now that the chinese market is opening to the actual official consoles, it could really be a turning point.

You can already buy the Switch and related games in China (just get them from HK, a Chinese region, if you push comes to shove, or online)

This is what im saying... ppl who want one already know how to get them.

Importing and buying from other regions can only get them so far. If the console was in every possible store instead of having to go to Hong Kong to get it, the market for it would expand exponentially. Plus, if a console isn't officially released in a region, Nintendo can't advertise it there.
