In the world of consumer electronics,
being number one is usually an advantage.
Like, if your product has the newest tech,
the most features,
the fastest processors,
chances are people will line up to buy it.
Sometimes, though, it pays not to be number one.
Take Nintendo.
Earlier this month,
it released its latest console, the Switch 2.
Now, as a piece of video game machinery,
the new Switch is nowhere near as powerful as its competitors,
like the Sony PlayStation or the Microsoft Xbox.
And yet,
when the Switch 2 was released a little over a week ago...
Gamers in New York camped out on the sidewalk outside a Nintendo store for hours just to snag one.
She's been here since 1230.
Oh my god.
So much longer than I thought.
I've been here for now 18 days and me and my buddy Chris and or Chicken Dog have been planning this for two years.
