| Darwinianevolution said: After a highly successful console, you always fear the "rebound" effect. Platform holders tend to get greedy and vain after a milestone console, and the original Switch definitely was one. I'm afraid they are going to go the extra mile with the price increasing, monetizing everything. |
Sony's greed with PS5 after the huge PS4 hasn't seemed to hurt them yet in revenue and profits. Switch 2 will probably be a similar case if the greed continues and increases.
But could PS6 and the far away Switch 2 successor be hurt immensely by the greed? Yes.
