| Shtinamin_ said I dont think they would bring in a new SKU model at such a late stage of the console's life. They have done it before with the GB bringing in the GBC, but that is a handheld and was due to the failure that was the Virtual Boy. If they bring in a new SKU, why would they replace it so soon with a brand new successor? I think option 1 is the most logical. |
Actually, it is Nintendo MO to release a new SKU this late in the life cycle.
- New style NES releases two years after SNES released.
- New style SNES released a year after N64 released
-Gameboy Light came out the same year the Gameboy Color did, so that's two revisions of a console 9 years after release.
- Gameboy Micro released a year after DS released
- DSi XL released a year before 3DS
- Wii mini released a few months after the Wii U came out
- New 2DS XL came out a few months after the Switch came out.
Pretty much the only consoles they haven't done this for are the consoles that didn't sell very well.
