Not the first time they've done a small refresh, but I think it just looks horrible in comparison to all the "leaked" information that was getting passed around

As someone with thousands of hours on my OG switch this gotta be the most pointless mid-cycle upgrade ever:unimpressed:
I already have a 64gb memory, LAN adapter, and 40hr battery pack from the first go round. I wish I would buy another one just to see the same damn resolution and struggle performance on OLED

If you're new to the Switch it's alright I guess:ld:

So this is gonna be a HUGE SELLER, right?

Probably but I don't see any reason to buy it. I mostly play at home on the TV and no spec boost makes it meaningless.

That Tweet is just a testament to how much of a slave people have become to consumerism. Why buy a product you don't agree with and pretty much already own simply because they release a new variation of it? Nintendo thrives off customers like that.

I wouldn't have beef with it if not the for $50 price mark up. Just a new level to Nintendo greed.


If it was $299. I'd be apathetic, because a 7 year SOC shouldn't be that expensive regardless of the whole Switch thing.

Yeah. Nintendo should’ve dropped the price of the OG, and slowly phased it out with this new model at $300.

I should’ve known something was up when MVG said none of his developer friends knew anything about a Pro model.:francis:

Nintendo is such a dogshyt company. They release a handful of games that people love, then re-release them again for full price that people lap up. They don't push the medium forward in any meaningful way, gouge their customer base on EVERYTHING and do the absolute bare minimum but always get a pass for it because they released the NES and Super Mario Bros. in the 80s.
