Lol. I did put my money on "barely distinguishable from the Switch 1, maybe bigger". I guess I win the betting pool.

I'm mainly happy because I didn't want to be tempted to support Nintendo's lawsuit happy asses, anyway.

If they ever release a Virtual Boy Mini, my conscience will never recover from my own hypocrisy, though.

I plan on buying just the console (which they usually lose money on anyways), and then leaving it in the box not connected to the Internet until a mod chip comes out.

I don’t think Nintendo loses money on their consoles. With the original switch, and this switch 2, they specifically went with old and slow hardware to ensure the margins work out.

Ooh. I like that. Ethical, and fun!

Congratulations on your personal betting pool. Wishing you the best.

I will be buying one.
