    I can’t see how they could possibly market a “Switch 2” handheld successfully.

    The average parent/consumer isn’t going to understand or care about slightly updated graphics or hardware. It’d have to be something fundamentally different.

      I can’t see how they could possibly market a “Game Boy Advance” handheld successfully. It’d have to be something fundamentally different from the Game Boy Colour. 😉

      For the average consumer, it’s all about the games. If the next platform has awesome games you can’t play on the current-gen platform, it’ll sell. (Well, barring some disastrous marketing…)

      I’d buy it. Right now the only time I use the Switch portably is on vacation. Something with a smaller form factor, even a Switch Lite OLED, would be great for mobility around town.
