I agree, I don't think they'll do the Switch Home either.

I reckon the dock will cost them about $5 to $10 so can't see them knocking off $100...

Costs more than that. It has a processor inside it.

Could you possibly link to that info?

EDIT : I l looked it up. There's no price available for the rumoured chip but chatGPT has this to say:

'I couldn't locate any specific pricing information for the Realtek RTD2175N-CG chip. It's possible that this component is either not widely available on the market or is sold through specialised channels that require direct inquiries.

However, similar Realtek models like the RTD2136N-CG are available from distributors such as Ovaga Technologies, with prices ranging from $1.93 for a single unit to $0.96 per unit for bulk orders of 4,900 pieces. Another variant, the RTD2132N-CG, is listed on WIN SOURCE with pricing starting at $2.26 per unit, decreasing with higher quantities'

So if the similarly named chips are indicative of the price of the one being used by the S2 dock, it's not adding much tbh...

And Nintendo will be buying in the tens of millions so will get them at a fraction of the price.
