First, don't pay attention of Nintendo PR talk, that just PR talk saying that Switch is home console on 1st place only because Wii U is dead while they still need to sell 3DS and Pokemon this holiday season. Reality is that Switch is hybrid of home console and handheld that can be used like real home console or like real handheld. Actually Switch look pretty interesting and totally different than others consoles on market, console that can be used like real home console and like real handheld, with 100% Nintendo support, looks and sounds incomparible better than Wii U.
Actually with Switch they are following tech trend, Switch will have very modern hardware and tech (actualy more modern than PS4/XB1). Nintendo is trying to do something different than competition because there is no place on market with 3 identical consoles, and thats good beacuse we have something diffrent and intresting compared to other consoles on market, nobody really wants another PS4/XB1 clone or imagine last gen with another clone of PS3/Xbox 360.
Wii was actually biggest Nintendo success on console market and console that beat "HD twins", but you forget that GameCube that was traditional console with good specs and games was actually worst selling Nintendo home console till that date. They doing things on their own way, interesting and different, they don't pursuit just a power with strongest specs. Actualy Switch is to be great thing for those who want to be Nintendo hardware and Nintendo games be popular again after Wii U, but disappointment for people who want that Nintendo be more like Sony and MS.
With your last paragraph you basically said you care only about hardware power not about great games or experience.

Great games and experiences need a great hardware. AI, in-game physics, visuals ( yes, they do matter), smoothness, connectivity and others requires hardware to be able to exist. The evolution of games isn`t just about visuals, experience wise whitout more hardware juice isn`t impossible to improve too. Imagine if we still had NES hardware, many entire genres would be impossible. Hardwares does matter, this is what Nintendo don`t see to realize.

I would like to hear how gaming as a whole evolved from last generation to current generation. What kind of new experiences did we get?
