A lot of the issues they flag exist only in online forums and thinkpieces. Most of the userbase will never notice the difference regarding the key cards, for instance (until it’s too late, I guess), and Mario Kart World’s bundle version is only 40 bucks, which is the one everybody will be getting for the foreseeable future.
The riskier things they did are the pricing of the console (rough but inevitable) and the cost of the storage. Well, and skipping the review cycle for the remnants of the press, which I presume is why this article exists at all.
The S2 won’t sell as well as the S1 and nobody expects it to do so, but in the meantime that reasonable assumption will be a Rorschach test for a bunch of breathless quick turnaround filler like this, I suppose.
