There are many things wrong with your post:
1) You clearly have no vision for the future of video gaming. Instead, you think you may have a vision based on what you see in the present while neglecting the past and lacking imagination for a future.
2) Calling this console a successor to both Wii U and 3DS is fair from your prespective because of your lack of vision for the future. This makes arguing your point here moot at best. However, a hand held with cool features is still a hand held. Just because the stuff is packaged in is not a reason to call this console something it is not. If 3DS came out with a docking station that gave video out to the television and the console saw controller add-ons today, would that really change the fact that 3DS is a hand held? No. Now there is also the rumor that the screen is touch... if that is true, docking the hand held to the station actually TAKES A FEATURE AWAY FROM THE HOME CONSOLE SIDE. Now, I understand that this is a rumor but if it ends up true, how in the world can you say this is a home console when it sees all of its potential and features utilized while it is used as a mobile? Another point the guy that tends to agree with you should be prepared to debate.
3) See my DS being called the, "third pillar" argument because it could have been suicide if they admitted to replacing the Game Boy line at that moment. We have watched this happen before (if you were actively following gaming in 2003).
4)Game Boy Advance was Nintendo's best selling console at the time. I am not going to revisionist history this with you because it is very, VERY clear you have no idea what you are talking about. Gamecube was dead, not Game Boy Advance. People were saying Nintendo should make a new home console back then. Just like Wii U is dead NOW, not 3DS so people are hoping and praying that Nintendo rush to replace that instead of replacing their money making hand held line. This is history repeating itself. Nintendo does not do what the common video gaming pubilc thinks they should do (replace the struggling home consoles first), they do what they want to do. And when it comes to Nintendo, using your typical progressional logic is a failure as history has shown us. Also, taking Nintendo or any company literally is suicidal. These compainies are politicians which means they will say anything to cause minimal scare (see DS being, "third pillar") while taking risks.
5) Not only do I expect another Nintendo home console, I expect it reasonably. They tend to stick to five to six year cycles and I would be surprised if their next console is not at least hinted at in that time frame.

My vision!?
I talking about facts, not about my visions. Switch is successor to Wii U and 3DS (Wii/DS) platforms, and its hybrid of home console and handheld not just handheld that can be connected to TV.
And not history is not repeating, Nintendo goes for totally new and different strategy, they now have unified platform and product that aiming handheld and home console market in same time.
Do you actually know why Nintendo decided to go with unified platform and product that is basically hybrid that aiming handheld and home console market in same time!? Because Nintendo admited that in modern time they cant anymore support separate handheld and separate home console or two different platforms. We will definitely have some new Nintendo hardware in future, but most likely that hardware will be part of Switch platform.

Yeah, it is clear you have no idea what I am talking about because of our differing views on the future. You think you are talking facts but the truth is, you are talking about your beliefs just as I am.
History is repeating itself, Nintendo is selling you something, telling you it is not exactly what it is, and making moves for their future. It is not my fault you are ignoring the parts of my point that expose this.
I know exactly why Nintendo decided to do this, because it made the most sense. They can get hand held first and third party support and fool people into thinking this is a home console. I am not mad at Nintendo, all of their moves are smart. I do not think you understand that about me. I agree with Nintendo's moves. You are just lacking that final part, the part that I see that you do not. The fact that you think Nintendo's next hardware will be a continuence of the Switch is where we disagree and is where the difference of vision comes into play. And it is OK, but that does not mean we should start calling a hand held a home console.
