Switch can act as 3 portable systems and a home system.
Gaming tablet
Traditional handheld console
Mini-gaming laptop/tabletop
Traditional home console
Add in off screen/joycon only mode and Switch is set for wherever gaming is heading. If touchscreen only games are the future then Nintendo has their own dedicated, higher quality device/games. If smartphones/tablets with blutooth controllers and docks are the future, Nintendo has a head start. If gaming laptops get smaller and built around local multiplayer, Nintendo's only behind on power. If more powerful home-only consoles are the future then Nintendo can lag behind graphically while adding a non-power gimmick to compete, like they're currently doing.
