    “Aside from all the exclusives, how many exclusives will it have?”

      I can remember when the SNES had countless 3rd party exclusives. Now we can’t expect any?

      The value prop of the Switch 2 is not compelling to me.

        We can expect exclusives. I’m not sure why you’re acting like all the exclusives that exist don’t count.

          Because your previous comment conflated exclusives with first party exclusives.

            I’m just questioning why you’re trying to write those off.

              Because I don’t think it’s worth it to pay $650 Canadian for a console based only on a few Mario/Zelda/Metroid games?

        That was the time when SNES was practically the only player jn town and you couldn’t easily port a game from one plataform for the other.

          No? The SNES was in fierce competition with the Sega Genesis / Mega Drive. They didn’t call it the console wars for nothing.
