I see no sense in Nintendo Switch, it`s a terrible idea

True, but we can say with almost total certainty that will be weaker than an Xbox One.

Then again, what else is new? Nintendo haven't released a system that power-competitive since 2001. They've made it clear that they want no part in that arms race. Wii and Wii U were about 5 years behind the curve power wise and Switch looks like it will be as well. At this point, it's best to just accept that Nintendo does things differently; we'll probably never see another system from them that competes head on with Playstation and Xbox. They dance to the beat of their own drum, for better or worse.

Ive been meaning to ask, what are your thoughts on Switch?

I know that you dont like playing on handhelds despite being interested in some of the games that release on them so i thought this type of setup would be beneficial for someone like you.

Commercially speaking, I think Switch is a good idea. If they price it well ($250 USD ideally) and promptly kill off 3DS in order to focus all their first party output on a single device and avoid the software droughts that crippled Wii U, I think it could do quite well.

As far as me buying one, I have no problems with the hardware itself. My concerns are whether Nintendo will continue a lot of the trends that caused things to go sour between us over the last couple of years, like the constant delays and not listening to their fanbase. I'm going to wait and see for the moment. My first hurdle is whether Breath of the Wild still comes to Wii U. I just don't think I could ever forgive them if it doesn't.
