Poll Switch 2, yay! Or nay!

What's everyone's take on pricing?

I am curious since i am a PC gamer and the standard for AAA titles is 60-70 €/$ and if you buy older games or through legal third party sellers you can get them for reasonably cheap.

Now prices for console games are at 70-80 bucks ( correct me if i'm wrong) for new titles, are they pricing themselves out of the market? If i had let's say two kids in gaming ages i would be looking at 1000+ just for two consoles and a couple of hundreds every other month for new games, that can add up over the year and i'm not sure all families can afford that.

I feel like making a Switch 2 will end up as a Wii/Wii U situation where the Wii was a beloved console whereas the Wii U wasn't recieved very well. I'm pretty sure the 3DS wasn't well recieved either in comparison to the DS but that one might be wrong (not my opinion on the consoles because I like both the wii u and 3ds) but yeah I don't have too much faith the Switch 2 given my understanding of how re-doing a well-recieved console tends to turn out. I know this is sort of off topic but it's just a thought i had in regards to the switch 2

If in a few years we'll have switch 2 with OLED and a better battery life you could be right
