That’s the sales you get when you release software (Labo) as bad as Wii music. Labo has put a stain on the Switch. Now Nintendo has to work hard to clean that up.

What stain are we talking about? I don’t see it.

I agree with you. I think you misunderstanding what I'm saying or I am not explaining myself properly. I don't think launching at a high price puts Sony at an advantage. I'm saying that Sony is at a better advantage than Nintendo at this moment in time. Switch is matching PS4 with launches aligned but PS4 was $100 more at that moment. Switch is at a disadvantage because they have less room to drop the price. 

Again, I'm not saying releasing a console for higher price puts Sony at an advantage, I'm weighting up the situation that they're both in now. 

Ok, understood now. And I agree with you, I do think that the swithch will have a harder time dropping the price of their hardware. I mean its Nvidia we are talking about here. But that depends on if nintendo is really selling their console with a new zero mark up. It could be costing nintendo $200 to make the NS for all we know.

I guess it depends..

Kimishima, prior to launch, said the Switch wouldn’t sell at a loss.

So I guess take that for what you will.
