Maybe Nintendo can add power through Supplemental Compute Docks for home play but the main NX is only going to have so much power. There's just no getting around that. And the gap between "home mode" and "portable mode" can't be so ridiculously large because that will compromise being able to have the same/similar experience on the road as at home. 

If you want a super-powerful console buy a XBox Scorpio or build yourself a PC. Really, it's that simple.

I already own an Xbox One. I will be buying an Xbox One Scorpio once it becomes available.
And I already own multiple PC's, I am actually primarily a PC gamer.

Why is it so wrong for me to want a Nintendo console as well, that also pushes graphics? I'm a consumer too you know.

Having anything modular tends to lead to fragmentation or at the very minimum a compromise in the graphics as developers need to worry about the lowest common denominator if your hardware specicifications change.

There's nothing wrong with that, heck I wouldn't mind a powerful Nintendo console either, but sadly there's no reason for them to make powerful consoles anymore. Maybe things would have been different if they wouldn't have screwed up the N64 and the GC, but what can we do..
