| Kyuu said: Switch is doing great all things considered, and PS4 decent. Metroid and Uncharted pretty much bombed as expected, while Dragon Quest dropped like a rock which is painful to see.. terrible legs. Splatoon 2 may considerably decline as well if standard Switch consoles become more available. P.S: The Switch is only a "hybrid" because it has a homeconsole-like game development and costs. That aside, it's very much a powerful handheld with a little gimmick from a Chinese device. Also in this context, being a hybrid puts it in a better position than if it were a standard portable. Some guys are trying to pass it off as a "home console" so as to overstate its success, without knowing that the whole hybrid thing makes it even more desirable in Japan than a standard handheld, let alone a home console. I'm super interested in Switch's future baseline in Japan when the 3DS is no longer supported, Pokemon and Animal Crossing arrive, and the supply issues are no more. |
Switch is a hybrid because its fact that you can use it like real home console and like real handheld (it literally gives you full home console experience at home, and full handheld experience on the go), not beacuse "homeconsole-like game development and costs".
