OLED screen? They finally caught up to the vita!
Re: Switch Discussion Thread
I like the kickstand and the extra internal storage but not enough to go through the hassle of upgrading. Still, nice improvements all around for someone in the market for a new Switch. I wonder why they didn't announce this at E3? I guess they didn't want to let down the folks expecting a Switch Pro?

Bigger screen, OLED display. That's most of what counts. Could probably be argued to be worth $50, but I'd rather see the cost of the entire Switch line come down a little.

I was hoping for a pen holder.

If it can't cook chicken, it's not new gen tech.

Maybe if you hooked it up to liquid cooling you could sous vide with it?

I think that's the KFC 360, but the chicken cooker is real.

Re: Switch Discussion Thread
Very curious to how it looks in person
Re: Switch Discussion Thread
I've been holding off on getting a Switch because of the rumored "Switch Pro" - since this is as close as we're getting to that for now, I'll be getting one! I see myself playing it handheld more than anything else anyway, so the OLED should be nice.
Re: Switch Discussion Thread
A price increase on an older console? thats a new strategy isn't it?
That time looks no where near, Switch sales are demolishing PS5/XBsX, and imo the Switch hardware is still very current. At 80M units sold it makes me wonder why no other company is even trying to take a bite out of that market, they are just leaving Nintendo dance alone in the handhelds category. I am also surprised with the strong sales as I thought that now most people own smartphones and tablets that will surely eat into Nintendo handheld sales but the numbers are equal or better to DS/Gameboy levels.

And that’s unlikely to happen until supply constraints aren’t keeping people from getting their hands on those current gem consoles.
