How Will be Switch 2 Performance Wise?

I guess the proof would be in the pudding, but can you seriously see a souped up 'Switch 2 Home' costing a fraction of the base console not selling at least 20+ million units? What was that stat that was knocking around a while back about the number of Switch owners playing exclusively docked? Was it not around a third?

$450 will give a lot of people pause. $100 / $150 / $200 is much more in the 'why the hell not' territory.

I doubt that they would sell it for $100 - $200.

$299 - $349 would be much more realistic. Display + battery + docking station won't save them THAT much in production costs.

They would still have to add a controller to the home package, either the Joy-Con-2 controller + chargeable grip or a Switch-2- pro controller.

They could offer a non-controller option as the Switch 1 pro controller is compatible with S2 I believe & also I could see a lot of people double dipping who already own a Switch 2 (or the inevitable Switch 2 Lite) due to the higher performance of a fully clocked 'Home'.

You're prob right that $100 is too low but I could see a controller-less version being financially plausible at $150 to $200 if they were to sell at cost.

Unfortunately we'll likely never find out as all of the reasons to do this also applied to the OG Switch & it never happened...
