Nintendo looking to support the Switch for more than the traditional 5-6 year period

The idea that a system will stop selling because far more powerful systems come out flies in the face of numerous past examples, I simply pointed them out. Are the circumstances identical? No. But this notion that the release of more powerful systems inherently means an immediate death for successful hardware is simply false.

I suppose you're right but if you really don't think the Switch will get a reduction in sales because of graphical power in the future(which I agree with mostly) you should have just said that instead of even entertaining the idea. 

Its sales will tail off in the end like every system does as it becomes old hat while trendy newcomers taker the spotlight. I just don't think graphics will be the main reason for that, as being graphically inferior to its competitors hasn't stopped it selling like hotcakes so far. I mean if people were still buying a 240p system weaker than the Wii in 2017, I think there's a place for the Switch in 5-6 years as a cheap low end product.
