Nintendo Switch: 10 Harsh Truths Nobody Wants To Admit
1. The Switch Is Not A Guaranteed Success
There's no denying that the Nintendo Switch reveal trailer received an incredibly positive response from the gaming community.
Nintendo's marketing focus seemed infinitely more streamlined, nor was it condescending or too child-orientated. In general, most people believe that the Switch will be a great success for Nintendo, but that's not necessarily the case.
Gamers are frequently incredibly enthusiastic about Nintendo's games, but not always enthusiastic enough to actually buy them, content with seeing them played online or hearing about whether or not they're any good.
Nintendo still has a long way to go to translate this enthusiasm into actual sales, especially when those sales are the purchase of a brand new console along with games.
The reveal of whether or not Nintendo has a strong online component prepared and (at last!) a unified account system will be a major factor in the decision-making process.
