Why go back to LCD after releasing an OLED for the Switch, surely it's better to make this one OLED rather than releasing it with LCD and then making an OLED later down the road
Because the number of people who won't buy it because of the LCD screen is smaller than the number of additional people who will buy it if it's $X cheaper at launch.
Yeah, you need a balance when launching new hardware. Most people, specially Nintendo players, don't care about OLED vs LCD that much. So, cheaper > OLED.
That being said, I am not trusting any rumours, or even checking them out, so don't know what the article says, but if they do go with LCD, this could be the reason.
Eh, it'll be totally sold out for two years, they'll get their sales and then the oled model in 2026 will get them even more. This is nintendo. They do this.
