Nintendo is asking $350 for a "Next Gen" console to play games they are no longer developing for Wii U.
Graphics don't matter, power doesn't matter, OK, then why isn't Wii U good enough any more?
If people are being asked to pay MORE than much more powerful consoles they expect something for it.
Switch is nothing special hardware wise, the architecture is basically lifted from NVIDIA Shield including API.
So people are certainly able to compare it to similar tablet hardware, and relative to other consoles.
Including Wii U which they are being asked to pay $350 to upgrade from.  

They not asking $350 (which is the wrong price) for a next gen console they are asking $300 for the first ever hybrid platform which is far different, no tablet has the same motion controls, hd rumble and traditonal controls out the box either. Switch has the potential to be far more unique than what Wii U had.
