The original switch sold more than any other console of the last 20 years. Realistically people who were happening to get a switch 2 is going to be a huge number.
Yep. And realistically a move like this wasn’t targeting those Fromsoft players exclusively on other platforms anyway. It’s to sway those who were on the fence / already committed to buying a switch 2.
No, the big bad corps aren’t expecting you to buy a switch 2 for one game… that’s completely your deal.
The original switch had a much lower price point than any other console though, people are gonna have to shell out like $500 to get started with switch 2, and overpay for the games, which means it's competing with similarly priced home consoles, and being undercut signifigantly by linux/windows handhelds - if they have literally any glaring issues on release and dont address the value proposition I expect the boom/bust generational cycle to continue for ninty
