I wouldn't be so sure about Rol coming back.

I don't know hardly anything about the details, but from what I could gather and unless I'm mistaken, he and some of the mods had a falling out of sorts, and he's taking an... indefinite hiatus, for lack of a better term.

Again, take that with a grain of salt, I know next to nothing about the details.

Imagine if tomorrow at the Pokomon Direct they announce 2 versions of the Switch Lite.

1. FireRed and LeafGrean editions
2. Both come with an exclusive pack of Pokomon cards.......only with these Switch Lite editions.

160m Switch? Easy.

Ehhh, I don't know about that. I think the Pokemon well has dried up for Switch 1.

With an exclusive set of physical Pokémon cards, you don't get anywhere else?

I don't think Nintendo is focused on SW1 anymore. SW2 is a few months away from it's 1 year anniversary. They care more about profit than getting some record only fanboys care about.

Never stopped Nintendo in the past.

NES (3 years later). SNES (1 year +) , Wii (1 month +), GBA (10+ months later) and 3DS (4 months) all had revision models launch after their successors launched

Considering the current economic outlook (tariffs, uncertainty, and RAM shortages), I think Nintendo is looking at every option available. They don't want to lose momentum on SW2 and don't care about SW1 sales numbers, but if they have to raise prices and lose sales on their newest console, a revised SW1 model with some extra software to smooth the price could be an option.
