The Wii U was such a marketing disaster it convinced them to use numbers.

Dude the Nintendo 63 was so great, I still cant believe how they screwed it so bad with the N64...

Because Nintendo knows they won't be able to replicate the success of the first Switch, and that's why they're going to carry that name.

Pic related because it's the third DS (after base model and DSi)

I guess they could've gone Super Switch but these days it runs the risk of sounding like an "Pro" version, even back in the boomer days they struggled with the idea that the SNES was a new console

Because the Wii U was a colossal fuckup namewise that had people thinking it was an addon or accessory to the Wii.
People are fucking retarded and saying THIS IS THE SECOND ONE, NOT A DIFFERENT EDITION OR ACCESSORY is the only way to pound it in.

They were planning to call it the Super Switch (to follow the pattern of the Super NES), but realized that their target audience is literally retarded so they played it safe by making the 2 as big as possible.

No, dumbass. It's a bundle of two Nintendo Switch consoles.

They wanted "Switch" in the name somewhere, and decided this was the best way to nag people who bought the Switch into getting it. Apparently, that didn't work.

It’s a term from the BDSM community. It means you like switching things up by being the one who fists another’s asshole but also be the one whose asshole gets fisted.

Because when you see it you take 2 steps and switch around

Because they saw how well numbering worked for Sony. Playstation is the longest running console ever and it is numbered.

They finally learned their lesson from the Wii U.
