That's what I was wondering, if it's really possible to achieve that nowadays (unless Nvidia did some wizardry), and what would be the price. I think that anything which costs more than 300€ would be a commercial suicide. So I'm expecting Nintendo to do their own thing, the console will be underpowered, but cheap and with an attractive and highly marketable concept. That will probably mean no AAA third party support. And I still don't think it's necessary to the console's sucess tbh. I think competing with MS/Sony is quite absurd. That train just left time ago.
Still, if we combine the support the 3DS had regarding 3rd pary games , plus Nintendo exclusives, would make a pretty awesome system. With that saying, it wouldn't hurt anyone to try to get ports of popular games. I still think it's not that relevant in the console's sucess since Nintendo is crearly going on a different way.

I think Switch lives or dies on its price point and software. If it's $250 USD or less with killer software, it could do rather well.
If it's $300 or over and has a Wii-U-esque library, it hasn't got a snowball's chance in hell.
They need to play to their strengths; make it cheap and accessible, not expensive and niche.

Yep, I totally agree. At this point, I think price will be the most important factor to suceed. It won't depend on power or third party support. It will depend on price, marketing, and a healthy library of games. I think that with Nintendo making games in just one platform, we could say goodbye to the WiiU drougths. I hope so.
