It has achieved sub-par sales, and did not manage to compete with Sony&#8217; PlayStation 3 or Microsoft&#8217;s Xbox 360. However, now, GameStop is confident that this new device could change the balance. Nintendo my be able to compete directly with Sony&#8217;s PS4 or Microsoft&#8217;s Xbox One with Switch, shared CEO Paul Raines of GmeStop. He believed that the new Nintendo Switch device can expand the audience for gaming.<\/p>\n<p>During an interview, Raines said that early statistics have shown that the device has gained the interests of quite a few people. To be more specific, among GameStop&#8217;s PowerUp Rewards members, 27% of customers who are aware of the new Nintendo Switch device said they plan to buy the console. This number is on par with the Xbox One before it was launched. What&#8217;s more, this figure can go even higher when Nintendo reveal more information in future events, such as specs, price, games supported, etc.<\/p><div style=\"float: none; display: block; margin: 0 -10px; text-align: center;\"><!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_1 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"7528541080\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_2 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"2964262507\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<\/div><\/p>\n<p><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/NintendoSwitch_hardware2.0-e1480644742544.webp \"  type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/NintendoSwitch_hardware2.0-e1480644742544.jpg\" height=\"250\" width=\"444\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-33618 sp-no-webp\" alt=\"switch device\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture><\/p>\n<p>Also, the GameStop CEO also thought that the new Nintendo Switch device will have some kind of motion control incorporated. With how the device is designed, you can actually use joy-con controllers and the master controller separately, players can have a lot of choice for how they play their favorite games, especially for kids. That is what makes this device a potential game-changer in the industry. Of course, customers will ultimately decide if that is true or not.<\/p>\n<h3>Nintendo Switch device: So much anticipation<\/h3>\n<p>The Nintendo Switch device will go on sale in March. There will also be an event in January, where more information will be revealed about this new console.
