| RolStoppable said: Pricing issues that Switch 1 had eight years ago to refresh people's memories or for those who weren't around back then: 1. The console itself. 2. Pro Controller costs $10 more than a DualShock 4. 3. Joy-Cons cost $10 more than the already too expensive Pro Controller. 4. Console doesn't ship with a charging grip for the Joy-Cons. Fat extra cost. 5. Price of the dock. 6. 1-2-Switch costs $50. 7. Wii U remasters cost $60. 8. Nintendo Switch Online will cost $60. Nintendo hadn't announced a price for it at the time, but it was going to be expensive because "Nintendo." 9. Super Bomberman R and Ultra Street Fighter IV. They were Switch-exclusive, hence why they got flack while the more expensive multiplats for Switch 2 get a pass. 10. SD cards. Absolute necessity at or near launch due to only 32 GB of internal storage. And of course a PS4 or Xbox One was the same price or cheaper, so it was criminal that a new Nintendo console would launch into the same price range. |
Lets not forget the hardware perception, some people even thought that was less capable than Wii U
