If we hadn't seen how the WiiU played out I would have agreed with you. That said years after release there were still people that thought the WiiU was just an add-on for the Wii. I think branding matters for the masses. For geeks like us not so much. If they want to capitalize on the success the Switch had they need to name it something entirely different or call it Switch 2. Call it a Pro and the more casual users will skip it. Like it or not, Sony's consoles have better reach and their console branding is just easier to follow than Microsoft or Nintendo's. Remember more than half of humanity are morons. Keep it simple stupid. |
Whether or not the system is a success wasn't the question afaik.
I bought the Wii U in 2014 when games started to release and was very happy with it. As long as this new system has backwards compatibility and continues to receive the same quality of software the Switch has received, I will be happy.
If Nintendo somehow screws up the branding again, that's really not my problem or concern.
