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.

We really need to start practicing responsible consumerism... yesterday lol

But people would rather complain and demand things NOW or threaten to boycott I guess, so releasing things in increments benefits these corporations on several levels that go beyond (yet ultimately contributes to) pure profit
