Hold on, the Switch isn't a console.

Dammit, read the whole OP.

Interesting article. If it is anything to go by, it seems tablets fell to smart phones which are, in a way, tablets except smaller.

"Sales of tablets rose rapidly just as those of PCs started to decline after Apple’s first iPad was released seven years ago, leading some pundits to suggest the world was entering a “Post-PC” era.

But sales flatlined and then fell as users switched to smartphones with bigger screens as well as holding on to older tablets for longer than expected."

Good to know...

Ya I picked that article because I want tablets to fail and they have started. Smartphones should really crush them. However Laptops have been over PC this decade. 

Tablets haven't really died though... They've just been taken over by smartphones. Smartphones are small tablets in a way.

Yeah, I think the Switch is pretty much the future of gaming. No one ever thought smartphones would overtake dedicated cameras. No one ever thought the house phone would disappear. No one ever thought people would want to watch movies and tv shows on the go, yet look what happened.

Graphics and power will always be number 1, right? Gamers will always want power first and that will never change! There's no way hardcore gamers will sacrifice power for portability, right? Just watch.

Plenty of gens where the best-selling hardware was NOT the one with the best graphics and power.
