Dosent make it less silly.If I see everything by the consumer side, then I wished Playstation first party games were in Nintendo systems, that everything should cost the manufacturing costs without profits factored in.While at that, make XBox gaming division exclusive to Switch too!

You are right, things such as business sense, making good decisions so that said companies dont go bankrupt and stop making the games we love, shouldnt be even considered.

Consumers decide. I couldn't care less if Nintendo goes bankrupt because no one wants to buy their consoles anymore.  That's called business. There are plenty of great game developers. Even better, if Nintendo actually goes bankrupt, all of their talented developers will be free to make games on way better hardware platforms.

The wealth of a company is no consumer's concern, especially in an age of oversaturation of entertainment options.

You are right.Consumers decide.And the consumer has decided that the Switch is worth buying, at least so far.You just have to look at the sales so far and how easily it goes out of stock.Thats why this TV-only mode is so silly, because, at least so far, the consumer want the Switch as it is, because it dosent stop selling.Or in another words, people want Nintendo hardware.People want to play on a hardware that gives them something superior that pure hardware power.Flexibility.Flexibility of play and to your own schedules.Something that no other hardware that you find "superior" has.(Unless you factor 3DS, but thats another Nintendo console that was really successful).

The wealth of a company is no consumer concern, for companies that you dont care much about and dosent give you the bang for your buck, the value that you deem acceptable for what you paid.Someone concern for something is a personal decision, and its the companys job to make you care for it, especially in an age of oversaturation of entertainment options.And so far, Nintendo has succeeded.
