He's a Playstation fan who has no intention of buying the console, but can't help but constantly post negative stuff towards it. 

If it was easy to hit homerun then he should make a console instead. Otherwise it's just big words, but no substance. 

$300 for a powerful handheld that can also be played on the TV with improved resolution/framerate, I'll take it. Much better than releasing a weak 240p handheld in 2011 for $250 with zero interesting games in its first year. You know, the 3DS...

The 3DS was weaker than a Gamecube while the Switch is more powerful than the Wii U, even when undocked. And just for $50 more, yeah, I'll take it.

You say he's a PlayStation fan, and count that as a reason to discredit him. You're a Nintendo fan who always defends their every moves. I'm saying it's an equally valid reason to discredit your input.

Except I'm not spending all my time making posts shitting on a console I have no intention of buying. You say I defend their every move in a post I complain about how terrible of a product the 3DS was? Yeah, at least try and make sense. 

If it was the same old Nintendo we'd be looking at a handheld that was two generations weaker than their current home console. 

3DS --> less powerful than a GC (3DS shared most of its life-time with the Wii U)

DS ---> less powerful than an N64 (shared most of its life-time with the Wii)

GBA ---> slightly more powerful than an SNES (shared most of its life-time with the GC)

GB -----> weaker than the NES (shared most of its life-time with the SNES and N64)

The 3DS should have been slightly more powerful than the Wii and they still could have sold it at $250 if they dropped the lame 3D technology. Notice how the Switch uses something from every single console EXCEPT the 3DS? I found this to be pretty funny, Nintendo even high-lighted that fact in their own presentation.
