I don't think it will be successful.

Its a 720p tablet. Competing in a world already jam packed with tablets. All that are more open and will be have more functionality than Switch. A couple of controller nubs won't make a difference when its just another tablet in a world filled with tablets.

this is such an over simplification of what this device is and what it aims to do.

Consumers look at things in the simplest of terms. Why buy this when a ipad does more, and gives access to ios? Why pay for this when it has a blurry 720p screen? Why pay for this when there are far more many tablets that offer more?

By chasing the blue ocean, they jumped into the reddest ocean on the planet. And I think they messed up bad. Instead of only facing Sony and MS, they are facing apple, samsung, lg, Sony, and every other mobile device on the planet.
