The Switch is not another Wii U!

I hate to burst it to you, but the switch is a home console. Nintendo themselves said so in the Fire emblem direct where they said the switch fire emblem marks the return of the series to home consoles.

Give it up, its a home console. It just has the bonus you can take it with you for a while, but it's main use is on your TV.

 

I'm pretty sure a sucessor to the 3DS will come.

do you honestly believe Nintendo can support a console that is likely 2-3 times as powerful as Wii U alongside a traditional handheld that is somewhere in the ballpark of Vita level hardware?

That goes against everything they have been doing the last few years with merging and restructuring their divisions.

What would be the benefit of that anyway?

No it doesn't. Do you really think they would put all their eggs on one home console when their last one flopped and while they have a portable market on the order of the 60 million?

I mean cmon... is that not a clear picture to you? Why do you think Nintendo would settle for a home console instead of a portable?

There might be merit to the sugestions that a portable switch SKU might be in the cards. Whatever it is, there will be a sucessor to the 3DS, you can be sure of that. And its not the home console, wich Nintendo says IS a home console. Why do you think they bother to make that distinction?

Btw the whole having the developers on one building just meant using similar engines and tools. It never meant only having one system.
