It's mainly a portable device, I don't see anyone but the hardcore Nintendo fans using it as their only console, so as a portable it's very powerful. Battery life though ... well you may want to carry an extra battery if you play a lot on the go. 

This is wrong.. (or at best.. only looking at a very small part of the marked)

If Nintendo can convince people that a "all in one Nintendo" is worth theire money.. Most  will not own a "this gen homeconsole".. and will therefor offcourse use it at a tv when they are home/at thiere room

Remember.. a very big % of buyers/users  of any game system ARE NOT people that.. lets say know anything about the Switch at this moment.. They are parents/kids and/or just picks up whats look fun.. usefull or/and has the right price.. (and especally when it comes to Switch its more true than ever)

That bus already sailed. 

Most people are buying a Playstation 4 this generation and nothing you or Nintendo say is going to stop that now. Waaaaaaaaaay too late for that now. 

That genie is not only out of the bottle, he's doing muscial numbers with a monkey at this point. 

The best Nintendo can do is convince 3DS owners to buy a Switch (most Wii U owners are 3DS owners too) and then maybe hope that the remaining console side crowd that has a PS4 (or XBox in the US) might be willing to join in. 

Or by some miracle they convince the casual gamers that they need more than just the thousands of free/$1 games on their smartphones/tablets/Facebook for the 15 minutes/every 2 days they might play a video game and convince them they need to spend another $250-$300 on a whole game dedicated platform again and get back into buying $40-$60 for just one game (and to that I say good fucking luck, Nintendo).
