I wonder how much silicon shortages and manufacturer scheduling had to do with this revision basically just being a display upgrade. After all this time, they surely would have come up with more, right?

This is the same Nintendo that took over a decade to add a backlit display to their handhelds.
 
Nostalgia fags are embracing this thing hard simply because Toys R Us is supposed to be planning new stores and Lego is quasi reviving their Castle sets.

What does this sentence have to do with the oled again?

It shouldn't. But we're talking about these people.

*Ahem* they did in Japan with the game boy light and did the most retarded thing and not include it in the color and waited again for almost another decade.
 
Woo, a slightly bigger screen and kickstand, that's totally worth an extra $50.

They're never going to add N64, Gamecube, or GBA games if they keep doing this pointless shit, aren't they?

The only other thing that I can think of is that this is a stopgap revision and we'll get a new bigboy system in a year or two. This wouldn't be the first time this has happened either.

Sega got fucking EXCORIATED when they did the exact same thing.

And yet, Nintendon't gets a free pass because "MUH 64 GIGS. MUH ETHERNET PORT. MUH NEW SCREEN." Fuck off. Nintendo can be fucking retarded at least 50% of the time.
 
ah, the New Nintendo Switch Pro XL
  • modern average telephone screen
  • nintendo knows their fans love nostalgia so they added an ethernet jack for everyone that's nostalgic for the year 2002
  • a White switch only for White people
  • sticks are now even worse and do:

At this point I've collected all the physical stuff I want from those consoles and picked up a few backup consoles when I've found them cheap.

I have zero hope of stuff getting widely released in a new format outside of the occasional once in a blue moon thing like Super Mario 3d Allstars.
 
In all seriousness, I'm gonna wager a guess that the Switch OLED model is just a situation where it's getting to be equal or cheaper in price to manufacture them with these upgrades when compared to the standard Switch. The ethernet jack's bound to be something they threw in because that's gotta be just a few extra cents per Switch, and they know it'll bring in the types who are obsessive over their online connections and worry about USB polling rates.

That'd explain the laughable bump to 64GB. Even iPhones don't come with 32GB of internal flash anymore.
