Over the past week, the buzz surrounding the Nintendo Switch 2 has been intense! It’s like every gamer I know is talking about it non-stop. Even Sony seems to be intrigued by this new platform, as they’ve recently sent out an email survey asking for our opinions. A well-known leaker, eXtas1s, even shared images of the survey online, revealing some interesting questions from PlayStation. They want to know how we feel about their brand in light of Nintendo’s announcements and what we think about the current pre-order strategy. It’s fascinating to catch a sneak peek into Sony’s key insights from the latest Nintendo Direct. As a gamer, it feels like our voices are being heard!
As a dedicated gamer, I found the topic of pre-orders particularly intriguing after the latest Nintendo Direct. Nintendo Switch Online subscribers were given an opportunity to express their interest in the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2, potentially allowing them to secure a console directly from the company. The launch of PS5 was marred by scarcity, with many systems ending up in the hands of resellers who inflated prices on platforms like eBay. It remains to be seen how this will pan out for Nintendo Switch 2, but if they decide to sell consoles directly to their most ardent fans, it could significantly reduce the frustrations that often come with console launches. This strategy might become a common practice when PS6 eventually arrives.
Sony may not be revealing the reason behind their interest in these responses, but it’s plausible that they aim to measure user sentiment towards handheld gaming and determine the potential market for a hypothetical Switch 2 among PS5 owners. Since Sony has been absent from the dedicated handheld market since the PlayStation Vita, and the PlayStation Portal only provides streaming from a PS5 console, it’s possible that they are contemplating a more significant return to handheld gaming, similar to Microsoft’s apparent plans for a handheld device of their own.
There’s a chance that Sony might be exploring the idea of making Nintendo Switch 2 compatible with their games. During the Nintendo Switch era, PlayStation has made several games available on Nintendo’s platform, such as MLB The Show and LEGO Horizon Adventures. While the availability of MLB The Show is due to baseball licensing agreements, LEGO Horizon Adventures suggests that Sony is seeking ways to expose its intellectual properties to a broader audience. With video game development costs escalating, Sony might be considering strategies to mitigate losses, similar to how they distribute games on PC platforms.
Regardless of Sony’s motives, it’s evident that Nintendo has garnered considerable attention and spotlight recently. Whether this results in substantial sales is yet to be determined, but the wider video game market appears intrigued and eagerly awaiting developments.
