Do you like the Switch as a handheld?

Again, those do not warrant the downsides. Have you actually seen and played Zelda in handheld mode? The world is detailed but limited compared to on the television due to screen size. What you are saying are not things that I am dismissing as untruthful, but what I am saying is that, even for a hardcore gamer, what you are asking for what it would give you in return is not worthwhile. It also would not decrease the price of the hand held unit itself and it takes away a pretty decent television option to play Zelda and other open world titles on. As a gamer, not as a fan of a company, it would not be worth the trade off for me. I would rather be able to play open world Zelda on my television and not limited to a short battery life or a 6.2 inch screen. Your idea is not practical.

So removal of the $90 dock (no hdmi cable needed then either), camera and hd rumble wouldn't change the price? have you even thought about it?

Also, Zelda runs better in handheld form than it does in TV mode.

Are you really going to say the dock is really worth $90? If so, we are done for that stupid reason alone.

 

And Zelda running better in handheld than on the television has nothing to do with this conversation except to say, you probably have not played the game to know what I am talking about. Even in they remove HD rumble (which would be an awful idea but you would not understand since you probably have not played the console to know the benefits of having controllers that rumble on a hand held that do not destroy your vision aside from the awesomeness of the gimmick itself of location based rumble and emotion through rumble...) and the camera, it does not change the fact that outputting to television for games like Zelda is much better than seeing them on a limited 6.2 inch screen. The benefits simply do not outweigh the downsides. The minor price drop (and if you think they could release this same console for the price you are asking even though NVIDIA shield is 200 with 16GB) is simply not worth it to most gamers. Zelda like that on a 6.2 inch screen as your only option would be ass (considering almost nobody bought Wii U).

 

I sincerely suggest you spend some time with the console (not buy one because you have every right to not want one) but until you actually get some meaningful hands on time with the console to better understand it, spouting your position is going to seem silly to people that have given the console adequate time and understanding.
