Console makers make some money from the systems they manufacture, but the real money comes from game sales. But what happens when folks buy fewer games? This is a situation Nintendo is now finding itself in. As you might have guessed, it's because of the ongoing RAM crisis.
According to Bloomberg, Nintendo Switch 2 owners are buying fewer games because the console only has 256GB of built-in storage, and it's becoming increasingly harder to upgrade storage thanks to increasing NAND prices. Ballooning game file sizes are only making the matter worse.
