Smart comparing the 6 year old handheld from Nintendo costing 500 Euro on release to the 1 year old smartphone for 1.500 Euro

Was it really 500 at launch? Seems a bit too expensive for Nintendo.

released with an MSRP of ¥29,980 in Japan, US$299.99 in the United States, £279.99 in the United Kingdom, and A$469.95 in Australia; with standardized pricing for the European market varying.

Not powerful enough to play most games. Imagine spending $700 on a handheld but you can't play Madden lol.

Thats just BS and Madden is very much as well

I said actual games.

Oh so by actual games you mean indie titles that no one has ever heard of that can be ran on a 15 year old PC

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

No by actual games i mean games that aren't 100% cash Grabbing "AAA" games with the "usp" of fucking your gpu because they need to cash a entire asset store.
