Clearly they don't need to do that if the switch is exceeding their expectations.

I'd rather have their stuff than crappy pseudo-PCs.

So you're happier with an even crappier pseudo-pc. Got it.

LOL

No, I'm happier with a console that just does it's own thing. Nintendo doesn't build shitty watered down PCs. They just build a thing to play some games on.

That really makes no sense. Are you suggesting that because the Switch launched nearly featureless, that is POSITIVE? For less than the cost of the Switch you can buy a "shitty watered down PC", that has MUCH greater performance, plays Blu-Ray, Netflix, and whatever else you want. I understand there is hardcore Nintendo fanboyism, but come on.

Can you play it anywhere on the go? Can it play the nintendo games?

The only reason to get a console these days, besides the switch, is for the exclusivity. With the switch you also get a handheld console in addition to exclusivities.

Can you link me to where I can buy this other portable gaming console which apparently even has a Blu-Ray player despite the small form factor?
