Before I start to rant like it’s a form of terrible, oxygen-denying Olympic event, let me say this: The Nintendo Switch OLED is a phenomenal gaming handheld. I think it’s one of the best mid-gen console refreshes ever made, and I’ve valued it dearly since it launched in late 2021. With that out of the way, I think it would be a questionable decision for the company to launch a Nintendo Switch 2 OLED at launch, purely from a sales perspective.
Not that someone like me should be dedicating financial policy to an iconic publisher that’s been in business in some form or fashion since 1889. Hell, you’re reading the words of someone who thought that buying an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 graphics card — well after the GPU mining fad had passed — was a canny investment. I can hold an opinion on the next generation of Nintendo, though… even if it said take slays my soul.
