Would be awesome but chip-shortages could ruin it all. |
I think the different models somewhat allow Nintendo to get around shortage issues. For example, I believe the Switch Lite and regular Switch are made at different factories, and that meant that Nintendo could produce the Lite model even the base model was in short supply. It isn't a perfect solution, but it means that some people just buy the Lite model instead.
I am assuming that the new Switch model will use different types of chips from the base and Lite models. So if one type of chip is in short supply then they can make more of a different model. It's not a perfect solution, but it is better than having all of the systems use the same type of chips.
curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
