The Nintendo Switch will outsell Xbox One

>>388364259
It's gonna outsell PS4 too so that's pretty obvious

>>388364343
I wouldn't go that far to say it'll outsell the PS4.

anybody wish that gordon took it to the combine? i know hes not unkillable but come on

>>388364343
sorry anon, thats not happening. i do also wish that we could ignore europe.

It'll barely outsell the Wii U's 13.5m units before the PS5 comes out.

It better.

The switch is combing the 70 million 3ds and 14 million wii u maket

40-45 million would be disappointing but not a chance it will come close to ps4

I don't even like Nintendo but I believe this. Anybody who thinks that Microsoft has a hand in console gaming is more retarded than the Wii U defenders.

Lol. In what world

Nintendo blowing load in the first year. No big 3rd party support.

Ps4 is gonna have it's best year in 2018 with the amount of first and 3rd party games coming

Yeah cheap handheld. Not at the Nintendo switch price

It's well ahead of 3DS everywhere but japan. DS sold like shit after its decent launch until the lite released in 2006.

>>388367051
The PS4 is selling well but when you compare it to Wii and PS2, no it's selling normally, it's just the xbone and the wii u are both flops.

>The Nintendo Switch will outsell Xbox One
Hmmm maybe?

Switch will sell between WiiU and 3DS numbers. It will NEVER exceed 3DS's numbers (their portable sales were always on a downward spiral except for the DS, which much like the Wii doens't make a trend, and considering that the Switch will always be more expensive than a 3DS during the same time period it'll never sell more than it) but it will also not sell as badly as the WiiU simply because of better branding and it's portable.

My estimate for Switch lifetime sales is between 40m to 45m, which just so happens to also be my estimate for lifetime Xbone sales (around 40m). So it may or may not outsell it, either way both will be close enough that the difference will be mostly irrelevant.

>>388367732
Not really. Odds are, if you're a Euro, Nintendo's first-party lineup isn't going to appeal to you anyway, and third-party support for this thing is as anemic as ever.

>>388364343
No it won't.
The PS4 will crush it this holiday season. The Xbone one will end up outselling the Switch this year.

PS4 is going to break 70 million before the end of the year.

>>388369998
Exactly, and it's STILL sold out. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_the_highest-grossing_media_franchises

>>388367593
"Before the end of this year" means ten months for the Switch, having been released in March. Not too different from nine months.

Switch was at 4.7 million at four months. There isn't any official number for five months, but it's sure to be well over 5 million from what we know of US and Japanese numbers alone.

>>388364259
>plethora of amazing games in what is arguably one of the best launch line-ups in any console
Lmao

>>388370216
Sold out because of lack of manufacturing. Also not sold in small Europe countries you can can walk in store in Sweden and buy one

I don't think switch will beat ps4 this holidays except japan

>>388370170
They're vgchartz numbers. In other words, baseless speculation. As you said, Microsoft doesn't release any sales data, so there aren't any reliable numbers to go by besides things like NPD data.

>>388370512
Nope. The fact it's sold out at 300$ means it'll sell even better once they lower the price.

>>388370569
>VGChartz

Can anyone think of better console war shitposting bait than this company's numbers that they seemingly pull right out of their asses?

>>388370342
it's surpassed 6 million units

depending on how well the holiday season goes the Switch might outsell Wii U lifetime sales in one year

>>388370617
It's supply and demand that's all. Just for holidays.

Ps4 will win again. Ps4 sold 18.5 million first 12 months. Switch will be lucky to hit 12 million

>>388364259
Doesn't matter. It is still shit compared to a xbox and shit in general since is barely more powerful than a gamecube.
32gb storage, controller strap problems, dead pixels, inaccurate batter life displays, No games, shit resolution, small easy to loose game cards, one of the worst controllers I have ever held.
You have to be braindead to buy one of these when you can just emulate on pc or phone or whatever since nintendo's games have clearly dropped in quality and aren't worth buying anymore.

>>388370993
I have no idea what you just said. Are you butthurt or something?

>>388364259
We know the Switch will beat the Xbox One, but can it beat the Xbox One X? Looking at those preorder numbers, the Switch will have a hard fight on its hand, plus when the Switch Mini comes out in 2019, what makes you think the original Switch will continue selling big when we all know Nintendo handhelds do better. I can see Sony being the only big loser here. I believe the Xbox One X will make up for the failure that is the Xbox One the same way the Switch will make up for the failure that is the Wii U, you false flagging Sonyigger.

>>388370993
PS4 sold 18.5 million in its first 14 months, not 12. That's giving it an entire extra holiday season on top of its holiday launch. Its sales were 14.4 million after a little over 12 full months, with the end of that timeframe still bleeding into its second holiday season. It's not a balanced comparison at all.

>>388371598
>Looking at those preorder numbers, the Switch will have a hard fight on its hand
Most Xbox One X pre-orders are from people that already had the Xbox One, Microsoft hasn't done anything to broaden the appeal of the Xbox brand and Xbox sales will likely continue to decline if not at a slower pace than before.

t. I pre-ordered the Xbox One X and I already have a regular Xbox One.

>>388371853
I didn't buy a Xbox One but I'm getting a Xbox One X.

>>388371408
Butthurt about what? Sony is owning this gen. Competition ain't close

I hope there is some competition so sony doesn't get lazy and content but dont see with the switch

Just to put it out there, Nintendo and Microsoft aren't really competing anymore. The Switch will fully merge Nintendo's home console and handheld business into one by 2019 and Microsoft has already merged their Windows 10 and Xbox business into one and are no longer doing generations, the next Xbox isn't even next gen and will play all Xbox games. why are people still doing console wars when Sony is the only company still doing the failing console market?

>>388371598
Were there numbers released for Xbox One X pre-orders? What were they?

>>388364259
What's crazy is how what we're seeing since the switches launch can be equated to a snowball going downhill.

It's just gaining more and more momentum and the big name games, new and old are all solid across the board with the smaller titles just piling on despite "le no games" memes. More and more people are finding the device incredibly Convenient with its portability and 3rd party titles have also helped to bolster the library. It's all about to culminate and really explode however with one game alone


We all know what that game is. Odessey. This is the moment when the switch breaks the fucking sound barrier and nothing that Sony or Microsoft can do to stop or even hinder its approach. The switch may very well be able to rival the wii's era of supremacy and lifetime sales in a shorter amount of time. It's pretty insane. Of course that's up to more speculations as we won't know about future titles that have been promised for the coming years. Metriod Prime 4, super smash bros, a mainline Pokemon game, Pikmen 4, god forbid my heart would collapse if they mentioned and true successor to paper Mario in 2018 or 2019

Clear fanboyism threads are okay when it's Nintendo shilling. Nice job mods.

i dont think switch will outsell ps4 this holidays let alone in total. nintendo blowing there load in launch year. PS4 is only getting bigger and bigger

>>388372061
PS4 got outsold by 3DS so not really. They've always been number 2.

>>388373714
what? the 3ds released march 2011 and ps4 released november 2013. 2.5 year headstart and its barley outselling it. ps4 will surpass after this year. Sony domaniting this generation

>>388373714
>PS4 got outsold by 3DS so not really.
3DS launched in February 2011, 2.5 years before the PS4, and the PS4 will surpass it in lifetime sales at the end of 2017.

>>388373032
It sold out in days instead of weeks.

>>388375096
That's not a number.

The only main concern is that Nintendo is blowing everything they have in the first year. Which makes sense since the Wii U had major problems with games at launch that led to a death spiral.

Lack of third-party support is still a major issue. One that could get exponentially worse if Nintendo doesn't nip it in the bud soon.

>>388373930
>>388373954
So? Sony is still number 2. Throw in Wii U sales in there and they're behind 20 million or so. And now they have the Switch so that's 25 million behind.

>>388375808
>Although he couldn’t share specific numbers, he revealed that the Amazon stock in particular was all gone in 25 minutes. Greenberg didn’t specify, but it’s likely he’s talking about Amazon Germany.

So no numbers? You can't say things like "Look at those pre-order numbers" if there aren't any numbers.

>>388375971
If you include Wii U and Switch sales, you have to include Vita sales, too.

>>388376518
So 64 million? Still behind 21 million.

>>388376402
It's sitting at number 7 as a best seller on Amazon, I think that says enough.

>God, you people really are fucking stupid. It has so many games because Nintendo restructured their entire company. It's going to have ALL Nintendo games from now on.

>>388375971

>>388376621
Amazon's best sellers list is weighted to show what's sold the most recently. Not how much it's sold total. And it's not numbers.

>>388376606

>>388376879

>>388377279

>>388377279
Vita is at 15 million

>>388376827
They're pushing the 3DS beyond 2018, it's not happening until 2019.

>>388377119
You're never going to get numbers, I remember the Switch was the same way with its pre-orders.

>>388375448
>The only main concern is that Nintendo is blowing everything they have in the first year.
It has games already line up for 2018 and has IPs that are guaranteed to get a game like Pikmin and Animal Crossing. Until we see at least one of those, Nintendo hasn't blown anything.

>Lack of third-party support is still a major issue.
Its third party support has been consistently picking up steam. If some combination of Skyrim, Mario Xcom, and Fifa sells, then it will be full steam ahead.

Just don't ever expect it to get shit like Battlefront 2.

This thing would've been a hunk of junk realistically. Seems even more gimmicky than shit like the apple watch or google glass.

>>388372136
The Xbox one X is a premium product, and as such will not sell a lot, with the profit coming from the high tag price instead.

>>388378496
and I doubt all their games will be fully ready by next year. If Nintendo is still pushing the 3DS next year, then we're going to see all devs moving until 2019. 3DS is there as a fail safe for the Switch. When the Switch has finally hit or surpassed 24 million which won't be until like 2019, that's when the Switch will take the 3DS audience since Nintendo plans to release a handheld only Switch for the younger audience by early 2019.

>>388377631
>They're pushing the 3DS beyond 2018, it's not happening until 2019.

There's not a single internally developed first party game announced for it past 2017. Even Metroid was pitched and being made by Mercury Steam. They'v abandoned the 3DS already.

>>388378971
And MercurySteam is going to work on Metroid Dread for 2019 on the Switch just in time for the handheld only Switch. Look, you're not seeing games you would normally see on 3DS until 2019, get over it unless you want the Switch to fail for stupidly killing off its highest audience, the 3DS.

This.

>>388364259
It won't, Switch sales will start to dramatically dip once all of the fanboys have gotten their hands on one, which, judging by WiiU sales, is roughly 14 million people. That's the bare minimum number of people who can be considered hardcore Nintendo fans since the console was a failure that failed to appeal to any other crowds, yet they still got one despite the shortcoming.

You forget that mobiles are very quickly becoming a dominant force, and by 2019 will be far more powerful than currently. They are in direct competition with the Switch, and appeal a lot more strongly to the casual gaming market.

Meaning, the Switch will only appeal to gaming enthusiasts, of which, only Nintendo fans care about it in comparison to PS4/Xbone/PC, as it's only worth getting for Nintendo games.

Casuals have mobiles.
Portable gamers also have mobiles.
Mostly Gaming enthusiasts aren't gonna spend $300 on a console just for Nintendo games.
Meaning it's a Nintendo only console. Thus, expect it to perform better than the WiiU due to better marketing, but roughly the same as the Gamecube overall.

>>388379302
You don't know what you're talking about. Third party games doesn't affect first party. They'll have plenty of games for 2018 just like 2017. A huge company like Nintendo wouldn't make a console like that wouldn't planning ahead. Not to mention they obviously have deals with other companies like Ubisoft to create games for them. Platinum being obvious for example.

That's.... not how it works you retard. Most people who owned a WiiU also bought a 3DS. Both of those markets have massive overlap, and you're not accounting for the dying portable market thanks to mobiles.

It's going to sell less than 3DS overall. Considerably so in fact.

>>388367818
And you're forgetting the biggest reason of all, healthier competition.

>>388379759
Yes, they will have games you would see on the Wii U for the Switch in 2018, handheld like games are not coming until 2019, get that through your thick skull. The Switch won't be worth buying as a handheld until the handheld only version is made and released, thus 3DS gamers are not going to drop their 3DS for an inferior product.

I don't care? The 3DS game library sucked and I don't care if most the trash series on it die with the system (other than MonHun, SMT and Pokemon). All I'm saying is they clearly seem to have moved all of their development resources onto the Switch, judging by the lack of anymore new internally developed games for 3DS beyond this year. I'd personally be ecstatic if they kept shit like Animal Crossing, FE, NSMB, Style Savvy or whatever as low resource 3DS games while focusing on more Wii U caliber games on Switch.

>lack of actually good games.
You're absolutely delusional when most 3rd party devs are now porting their older games to the platform, and banking good cash. Likewise, it's becoming the best platform for MMOs and MOBAs. Current phone games are MUCH better than they were 6 years ago. They in fact rival a lot of the shit that was best selling on the DS last gen, stuff like Warioware, Brain Age, Phoenix Wright, etc... SHMUPS, Point abd Click mystery games, RPGs, etc... all work really well on mobiles, and you see a lot of these on the platform. To make a comparison to Atari which was a bonafide disaster, isn't ludicrous, but wistful thinking.

I'm not gonna tell you to change your outlook, cause there's no point, but you ARE wrong, and you're about to find out just how wrong you are in a couple years.

2-3 years from now, when the Switch fails to properly tap into the casual market like it hoped, and fingers are pointed towards mobiles, remember that I told you so.

And that's not even getting into 5G which will make legitimate game streaming from your PC finally viable.

>>388381106
>when the Switch fails to properly tap into the casual market like it hoped
It's not trying very hard to reach the casual market.

>>388379936
Like the PS4, most people that are buying the console out the gate didn't own its predecessor. That's why its getting ports that are selling.

>>388364343
Very likely, yes.

People love to bring up 'PS4 sales' when talking about this kind of thing. But the reality of the situation is that the Switch is not going to be competing with the PS4.

Since the Switch is the size of a tablet, will the handheld only Switch be the size of a Samsung Galaxy Phone?

No, it'll be the size of the Switch that's not in a dock.

Nintendo wants to keep their handheld market going, and they want to make the Switch smaller for kids because they feel that the regular Switch is too big for kids. They'll make a smaller Switch with a smaller screen as the 3DS replacement. No docks, no joycons, better battery.

>>388377392
Kill yourself fucking drone

>>388381553
Nigger, they are selling the games to the same people.

>>388382521
>Nintendo wants to keep their handheld market going
They are. With the Switch.
>but
Switch is a console too. That's the whole point of it being a hybrid.

>>388383054

They aren't. There's some overlap sure, but there's a lot of people that are completely new to these games. Like I said, its the same exact shit they found out was happening with the PS4. The only difference was Sony was too stupid to remaster their best PS3 series, Resistance.

>>388364259
>>388364343
Doesn't matter how much it sells. The fact that 3rd parties are still fucking hesitant to release anything show why it will fail.

>>388383303
You are stupid, Nintendo like a year ago stated that they wanted to follow Apple's and Android's direction with the Switch, so expect a smaller Switch as the TRUE 3DS replacement in a couple of years.

>>388383665

They said no such thing. They only said the 3DS wasn't dead yet and that's because they didn't want to force devs to switch platforms suddenly.

>>388383575
>The fact that 3rd parties are still fucking hesitant to release anything show why it will fail.
It's been consistently passing all the tests. The last three are FIFA, Skyrim, and holiday sales.

>>388383871
http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2014/02/iwata_looking_to_emulate_ios_and_android_with_a_common_platform_for_future_nintendo_hardware

Iwata: "To cite a specific case, Apple is able to release smart devices with various form factors one after another because there is one way of programming adopted by all platforms. Apple has a common platform called iOS. Another example is Android. Though there are various models, Android does not face software shortages because there is one common way of programming on the Android platform that works with various models."

>>388384121
>Iwata
>Like a year ago
I have bad news for you anon.

Also, the part you're not understanding is the "common platform" part. That's what the Switch is, a unified platform to avoid shortages. If they announce a second handheld, it would not only butcher sales but split their devs to GOING AGAINST WHAT THAT STATEMENT SAYS.

>>388384341
>the PS4 did this
Which year? 2013, kek?

>>388384279
>Which are?
Hardware sales, port sales, indie sales, USF2 sales. Next is the AAA publisher games then holiday.

>>388384121
Common platofrm is just talking about hardware/software target, this goes back to back with Nvidia talking about a 2 decade partnership with Nintendo in terms of hardware.

If Nintendo have a single target porting games forwards and even say a unified virtual console would be significantly easier.

You aren't getting a smaller Switch.

>>388384374
Mother fucker, if they announce a handheld, it would be another Switch and it would have zero effect on the Switch because 1. it is a Switch and 2. it plays the same damn games so if the game is bought on the Switch handheld it would still count as a sale for the Switch console. Like the Xbox One, Xbox One X, and Windows 10.

>>388384494
>Hardware sales
4.7 million is now the barometer?

>port sales
What ports`? Nintendo ports?

Yeah, those were great. No idea why that sold so well. Maybe because that was its only fighting game?

And yet what happens when someone decides to release a game for the docked Switch only? You now have a segmented base, that ruins the point of the Switch. Congrats.

>>388384861
>You should not expect too much.
I don't have to. Things are happening already.

>>388382521
switch isn't marketed towards little kids. little kids may want to pay it for that reason, and they'll have no problem doing so. kids even preferred the 3dsxl. size is not a problem.

>>388384897
None of that backs up what you are saying.

>>388385001

Wester devs? Nowhere to be seen.

ITS HAPPENING

>>388385204
>Then guess what, mother fucker, you buy the fucking Switch console if you want one.
You're back at the Wii U and 3DS and once again stretching you devs thin and causing shortages.

Again, ruining the entire point of the Switch.

>>388385234
>Wester devs? Nowhere to be seen.
Ubisoft has a game coming out in a few days.
But you will just move the goalpost and say their games dont count since you dont like them.

>>388385109
That's why they are making a smaller Switch to do that.

>>388385145
Those claims back it up enough, you Switch faggots need to get over the fact that Nintendo isn't going to kill off their handheld market because your home console is a piece of shit.

>>388385386
but kids don't want a smaller switch. market speculators say kids want a smaller switch

>>388385365
>Ubisoft has a game coming out in a few days.
That was created in collaboration with nintendo. Remember ZombieU? Ubisoft is not really a barometer for future support. Hell they even developed some PSVR games.

>But you will just move the goalpost and say their games dont count since you dont like them.
Why did you get so defensive?

>>388385234
>you may get a FFXV mobile version.
Tabata himself said that the mobile version isn't designed for controllers dummy. Also, there comment on the FFXV mobile was "not zero" as in, they aren't planning to.

>Wester devs? Nowhere to be seen.
Again, Beth, TakeTwo, EA, Activision, and Ubisoft are all releasing games to test the waters.

As retarded as this may sound to many of us, Skyrim alone will move switch units. Once people see their favorite over hyped game on a portable they will lose their collective shit. Then 3rd party won't be scared to work with the switch since even a shut game from 6 years ago sells outrageously well.

>>388385334
Like I said before, you're retarded. Do you not understand how unified platforms work? The Switch handheld would play all of the same games that the regular Switch would play just on a smaller screen and lower resolution. You would use the exact same cartridge to play your games. The Wii U and 3DS were separate platforms that had different software, that's not the case with the Switch and the Switch Mini. You should look at the Xbox One and Windows 10 as an example. I can already see /v/ is going to be in a shit storm in 2019.

People here like to bash Ubisoft and call them complete garbage despite the fact that they still manage to make a great game every once and a while.

No they don't the first one is shortsighted speculation at best, the second one is damage control to not kill 3ds sales outright in the wake of the Switch, especially in Japan.

if the Joycons don't work on both systems then you aren't getting a Switch mini, a largely internal Switch revision sure, with a larger battery, a die shrink and no fan for cooling sure, but a Switch mini, nope.

It doesn't matter what the kids say, it's what Nintendo wants.

Until someone decides to make a dock only game, which is bound to happen because undocked only games already exist and Nintendo has zero mandates against it. So if Ubisoft goes to Nintendo and tell their them their new games needs to be docked, you plan becomes shit.

>>388385887
Yes they do

>>388385980
But you never addressed my points, if it doesn't have Joycons then games will be incompatible with it right out of the box, it quite simply isn't happening, not a mini.

>>388386146
>dodges my question

>Not really, why the flying fuck would I want to play a docked only game on the Switch Mini?
You wouldn't be able to you dense motherfuckers. That's the problem.

>>388386054
That's the thing if the game is docked only or needs a joycon it won't work on the handheld but who literally wants to use a joycon on a handheld anyway. Switch Mini will play games that can play on all modes or handheld mode only.

>>388386116
>I don't understand what ITS HAPPENING means
Dont try to be a smartass. The "testing the waters" guy has already moved away from the original point.

>>388386206
Im asking for clarification because your question makes zero sense.

>>388386131
No you don't.

>>388386353
Dude, if I got a Switch Mini, I'm not going to give a fuck if I can't play a docked only game or some joycon shit. Did I give a fuck about Gamecube, Wii, and Wii U games when I got a GBA, DS, and 3DS? Same fucking think dumbass.

>>388386243
Yes, they have unified platform so I'm going to use them.

>>388386673
*thing

>>388386465
But then if the controls are built into the system you can't take them out for instant single player, switch mini fags are so short sighted, it's not happening, the Switch is the portable device, and only manlets complain about portability, kids play on much larger tablets portably yet somehow the smaller Switch is an issue? Like I said already, at best you will get a Deluxe Switch which is mostly an internal revision with a die shrink increasing the space for the battery, decreasing power consumption and heat production and pushing the battery life up an hour or two, maybe even an increase in internal storage, but no Switch Mini.

>>388386673
Nintendo doesn't care about or need a smaller Switch, from a business point of view it holds no value for them, you are asking them to make a more expensive device, for a similar price point to satiate a market composed entirely of chan autists.

>>388386673
>Yes, they have unified platform so I'm going to use them.
They have a unified ecosystem with multiple platforms. And they have development issues. Not a role model.

>>388386486

Nope. Still here. you're saying they aren't getting games when they are clearly getting games.

I'm amazed any of these consoles are selling considering the quality of games on them.

>>388386673
>Dude, if I got a Switch Mini, I'm not going to give a fuck if I can't play a docked only game or some joycon shit.
They care because that has clearly hurt them for most of the platforms you listed including the 3DS. It would be much easier for you to leave your Switch undocked than it would be for them to support two platforms.

>>388386957
>Nope. Still here
I didnt say you were gone. Learn to read.

But yeah its happening, kek, switch got fifa and skyrim.

>>388364259
I don't think so the switch is selling cause it's new and hard to find once the novelty wears off it will slow down dramatically. We will see this time next year.

>>388385891
Beyond that, the numbers aren't even right. Switch shipped 4.7 million in about 17 weeks, or four months. PS4 sold 6 million in 15 and a half weeks, so the gap's really pretty small for a non-holiday launch compared to a holiday one.

>>388387196
Its not novelty that is selling the switch, its convenience. That will never wear off.

>>388387160

>Switch starts getting games the other consoles have
>Kek, no third party support
You have like zero consistency.

>>388386843
Nintendo has always made revisions to their handhelds, they done like 5 revisions to the 3DS alone to the point where they had to call it "systems of the 3DS family" at some point so people wouldn't get lost

Why would they *not* do it with the Switch particular because the thing is selling well and people have been asking for some tweaks

third parties will never care for the Switch, even 3ds third parties are already leaving Nintendo, companies and IPs that found their legs on Nintendo, it's the N64 all over again.

>>388387371
Because the Switch as a platform is already well defined by it's Switching and instant 2 player anywhere gimmicks, removing this functionality is not going to happen, revisions will probably happen, but a Switch Mini is wishful thinking at best, a lack of understanding of Nintendo as a business at worst.

>>388387468
People are strangely misunderstanding the Xbox One, people buy consoles for third party first, and with the power the Xbox One has it will be the best place to play Call of Duty, to play Battlefield and Battlefront, but Microsoft will still mismanage it to a sales failure. During production Microsoft were optioned by AMD to make an identical machine to the PS4 in terms of specs, if that had happened, Xbox would have won.

>>388387143
It's not going to hurt them, the Switch Mini is the cheaper alternative. Anyone that buys a Switch Mini isn't going to care if they can't play some docked only games or some joycon shit. You're literally the only one complaining about this because you still buy Nintendo's shitty home consoles and not their better handhelds.

Is it the portability of the system is its key feature year after year the switch hardware will look worse then tablets and phones you also have to remember a shit game like mobile strike has made more money than all the metroid games combined /v just doesn't matter exclusives don't matter cod Fifa madden candy crush Matter we lost bro we lost.

There's nothing cheaper about that.

>>388389735
Look up burn and then try again.

>>388389779
That's the thing, it will have an improved battery over the piece of shit in the main Switch.

>>388389867
>burn
?

>>388389330
It doesn't matter how much money Candy Crush makes. It just isn't the same market. Switch is not a smart device competitor.

>>388389869
>over the piece of shit in the main Switch.
The Switch has a top notch battery for its size. The only options for better battery performance, would be to either increase the battery's size, which would make the Switch itself bigger. Or underclock everything even more.

Besides that though, the Switch has a battery life that's averages out with the rest of the industry.

>>388390068

Also, good chance the new battery would actually increase the price since it would be new technology.

>>388390068
>Or underclock everything even more
That's what the Switch Mini is going to do.

>>388390168

Then you would have a Switch Mini that can't play a single Switch game.

Where do you fuckers come up with these dumb ideas?

>>388390279
It's underclocked enough to play Switch games at the lowest settings.

>>388390401

That's not how shit works. Games are being developed and optimized with docked mode being the ceiling and undocked being the floor. If you suddenly drop out the floor, games will suddenly struggle to run. Especially games like XC2, which is struggling to run in its current build in docked mode.

>>388390641
Then it will be at the power of the undocked Switch with a better battery but will be cheap. Don't question Nintendo's ways of making things cheap.

>>388390840
>better battery life
>cheap
Pick one.

>>388390920

If Nintendo was able to create a battery that had greater capacity than the one in the Switch (4310 mAh, over three times the 3DS battery's capacity) and fit into a "mini" form factor, they would basically be creating a revolution in the world of battery technology. Everyone would be turning to Nintendo for their miracle batteries.
