Is that really a fair comparison? Switch Lite is almost surely cheaper to make in 2024 than Wii U was in 2016-January 2017. Switch Lite is one tablet with outdated specs. Wii U was already outdated of course for most of its life but there is the Game Pad and console itself to worry about. Now Switch and likely Switch OLED are probably as pricy to make right now as Wii U was around the end of its life, but even that's not a given. |
Well, I don't think it matters anymore what it costs to produce. It's more a business decision. They have all figured out that consumers will continue to pay launch prices for the duration of the cycle, so why lower it? That's the basis for my prediction, but we'll see.
