If your after a portable (I'm not) then it brings xbox 360/ps3 performance to the portable level with greater memory which is good and I'm sure there will be an easy way of connecting a large usb li-ion external battery pack to extend running time to 10 hours plus easily. As a home console though its pretty hopeless and not something I'm interested in until there is perhaps half a dozen must have games which is likely 2-3 years from now so I feel I'll be playing the waiting game.
I was disappointed in how little time I spent on my wii u. There was enough games for me to justify buying it but perhaps not my greatest purchase. I'll buy Zelda for my wii u.
Nintendo have set such a low performance level with the Switch that emulation is also possible fairly quickly. Arm cores and nvidia graphics are easy to emulate compared to more custom hardware.
