The midlife revision will probably just have a user-replaceable battery for all regions to simplify things.

Then again, it’s Nintendo.

    Nintendo makes the first version of all of their products deliberately mid just so the second version can be considered to be an upgrade, when everybody else would just consider the second version to be what they should have made from the beginning.

    It's like the OLED switch, why didn't they just make the first version OLED? There hasn't been a significant cost reduction in that area lately, so it's not as if it's suddenly cheaper to put one in.

    Making a stock version followed by a premium version isn't that odd. There are plenty of things Nintendo does with their systems that I generally agree with you on, but OLED vs LCD is not it.
