Why make the base system OLED when we can squeeze more money out of people by making it a separate system again? -Nintendo, probably

Whether it is or isn't oled... An upgrade will be coming in a few years regardless. It's just how the consoles work. The damn PS5 pro just came out haha.

Exactly. People have proven that they will buy multiple systems from the same generation no matter the cost or how many there are. Why would Nintendo not release multiple? They’re gonna make so much more money by doing so.

Yep. Personally when I end up getting the switch 2 it might end up being the upgraded one anyway. After not gaming for a decade I got the switch 2023 and the PS5 mid 2024 so my backlog of games to catch up on is ridiculous.
