TalkBack / Re: Nintendo Announces Final Financial Results For 2023-24 Fiscal Year And 2024-25 Projections

It's legitimately insane the prices they're going for now. I do think one thing that helped the 3DS sale is knowing there were so many amazing DS/3DS titles that you *cannot* play on Switch. If the New Super Switch 2 U is 100% b/c with Switch, unless there is a significant price difference, I could see a lot of folks just buying the newer system.
That said, I don't see a *lot* of used Switches for sale. They exist (definitely on-line), but it seems to be a seller's market, for sure. If there's not a significant amount of used systems at the end of the life cycle (which, I think, happened with the 3DS, as most owner's chose to hang on to theirs), that'd help boost sales of the original as well.
We'll see. I definitely am not counting Nintendo out.
