Nintendo Consoles Are In A League Of Their Own.

It does work.

Because nowhere did I say that:
It has to be a stupid console that cant do anything else than play games
or
That is has to be a closed system with different architecture that needs special versions (ports) that work on that system only and nowhere else.
or
"insert random thing here that made the 3DS suck"

The thing I described does already exist and is called LAPTOPs./PCs. (or even Smartphones) I can buy Sony,Lenovo,HP, Toshiba, Samsung, Acer, Asus laptops and computers etc etc. And all of them can play all games. They just differ in terms of features etc.

Most notebooks are nowhere close to be able to play Witcher 3, AC: Unity and other recent games. The ones that do are simply to expensive compared to current PCs. You are basically proposing Steam Machines and that didn't worked too (by the same reasons that 3DO didn't).

Despite that, why do you assume that the best world is where there's Nintendo and the others are just glorified 3rd parties? People actually like their XBox and Playstations. And going by the sales numbers, more people actually would miss a XB or PS than a Nintendo console.
