We can play the fanboy game all we want, you know. This is like saying every PC manufacturer who started including a mouse with their PC were copying the Mac despite Apple having copied it from Xerox first. Or that Google copied the iPhone system from Apple despite HP, Palm and others having similar products out already.

I don't particularly like Razer, I own absolutely nothing from them, I'm just saying that their first iteration of this (a PC tablet with detachable side controllers) was out in 2013. Accusing them of profiting of Switch's popularity is a bit weird, given that this isn't even targeting the same market (PCs costing over $1000). It could very well be that this successor to their 2013 model was in development for quite some time already, who knows? I'm not saying Razer invented it. This layout for a portable device with detachable controllers existed before that too. And I don't think these were all "failed" attempts. Countless of side controllers for tablets would like to have a word with you.

You just assume that because it works in a similar way to the Switch (an aspect that others featured before the Switch was even known about), that it, of course, was meant to profit from it.

You know, portable gaming, detachable controllers... this has been around for quite some time... Looks like the Switch? As the PS Vita layout somewhat was similar to the GBA, which was similar in layout to the old GameGear... I mean, we could go on.... but this is just stupid.

It's not a crime, nor something wrong, to inspire yourself from stuff made previously and improve upon it. That's what drives technology forward. And it does not mean others are copycats from getting inspired by what you've done.

But, you know, ok. Believe what you want to believe and keep thinking that everyone out there building detachable side controllers is copying the Switch.
