Isn't it selling out in about every single store?

The Switch is also cheaper. And has a better line-up.

Maybe that is contributing more than being new?

Also, it's eight months old and still considered new. What is the cut off date for a console being considered 'new'? A full year on the market?

Not sure. I guess 2 years would still be considered new.

Dammit you just had to ask, now Quickrick is gonna link a website showing that some stores have stock.

You do realize you're supporting his claim that being new is not the reason Switch is doing so well?

Also Switch is the same price as Wii U was.

I said “also”. Wasn’t the WiiU that was the same price as the Switch the one with virtually no storage space?

Yes, but 8gb in 2012 vs 32gb in 2017 really isnt changing the price argument.

The reason?
I am 33 have a son, a wife, a 13 hours job, i have things to do at home, am going shopping etc. Tell me. When do i have the time to turn on my PS/PC? The moment i think about the time i would need until i am in the steam login window, i give up. It is just too long. I am so busy that i Simply cant. Snake phantom pain is still on his first missions. I want to play it heavily but i dont have time. Now i have the switch. I am in the sleeping room in my bed just pushing 1 button and am in back in the game in 3 secons while beeing in my bed and next to my son and wife. If you dont have any time you really dont care about graphics, you just want to play. And the switch is giving me low lvl pc settings quality games but I CAN PLAY. My PC has 4k 30fps but I CANT PLAY. And my ps4 is the same. Dustmachine.

And how much more time take you to click home on PS4 and it to already be on the game you were playing before? Or use PSVita to stream the game for you?

How do you know he has a Vita or a stable internet connection when hes not at home?
