At first glance, the Switch didn’t fill many of us with confidence either....

So why did Nintendo stop using the Game Boy name almost 16 years ago? To be honest, the answer to that question is complicated and open to a fair bit of speculation. While this is a topic that Nintendo has talked around over the years, there are not a lot of high-level Nintendo executives who have directly addressed that question in a way that eliminates all possible doubt....
