About possible pricedrops for the Switch. We don't really know how much it cost for Nintendo to make a Switch. We only know that the profit margin on the Switch Lite is the highest and the OLED has the lowest profit margin. This is margin (%) and does not really say anything about profit in $.

Would Nintendo be willing to pricedrop the Switch to such extent that it would not make any profit anymore or even a loss at this stage of the Switch' life? I'm doubtful.

Offering a console at a loss is usually used to capture market share so to sell more games. But the Switch is so widespread already.

I'd love to see a pricedrop simply to see how far the Switch can go and become the #1 selling console, but not sure if Nintendo would care about that.
