The switch is essentially aimed at the same market as the WiiU, except that it might lure ds gamers over. If they attempt the casual market they will more than likely fail. ITs similar in vein to what Sony was trying to do with the vita and ps3 by being able to bring your console gaming on the go.

I dont see how anyone can come to that conclusion. Wii U had a huge emphasis on getting western AAA PS3/360 ports while Switch has a much larger focus on small-medium Japanese, indie & kid/family software.

And no, its nothing like Vita/PS3. Saying that Vita/PS3 connectivity is similar to Switch is like saying N-Gage was similar to iPhone.

It's the same concept as the Wii U, but it's a full fledged portable now. Even video kojima admitted that the switch reminded him of an evolution of what Sony was trying to do with the PS3 and the vita where you could take your hd games you play on your PS3 on the go. I will agree that the portable aspect will make the console more attractive to Japanese people who like mobile gaming
