I'm hoping for the virtual boy switch
GameCube.
Allegedly the price of switch online will be going up and this is the only reason I can think of
Nintendo is a corporation. Corporations like money. That is the reason.
If Gamecube games come out to their service, that will just be their thinly-veiled excuse.
even with the price increase, they cant realistically do it haphazardly, as the switch has a very low online subcriber rate (~20%) compared to Sony, whos rate sits closer to 80%.
just increasing the price without offering some feature of value will hurt shareholders trust in nintendo, at least in the longterm.
