"Why does Nintendo ignore us?!?!?!?"

Were they really happy with the Wii U? Also, remember that many gamers bought a Nintendo home console AND a portable console next to each other. Even if it wasn't you, theredefinitely were a lot of these folks. Now they only have to buy one. That's a great thing.

Wii U being a fixed home console wasn't what made it a failure.

The branding was shit... People thought it was a Wii addon.
There were dry spells in the games lineup.
The price wasn't appealing to some.
It was underpowered.
Nintendo's advertising was terrible... And so much more.

Also, you can just buy a fucking Switch and never take it out of the dock.

Or you just don't buy one at all.

Nintendo is in a unique position to placate both demographics here. And you are essentially screaming that they shouldn't.

Taking a switch, throwing the dock, joycons, battery and screen away and selling it at a fraction of the price would appeal to a large audience, especially parents buying for their kids.

And Nintendo releasing a cut-down stationary version of the Switch changes nothing for you. You can still buy the portable version, the world isn't going to end. More choice isn't always a bad thing.

Oh, you want one with more power? You and everyone else with this desire act like the Switch games look like they came straight from the 90's. Holy cow, there's more to gaming than shiny shiny. Now you will say that it's not wrong to wish for better graphics, which is true, yes. But it's no reason to pretend like everything looks like shit, either.

Having more power is never a bad thing.
I don't understand how people can justify having weaker hardware components.

Nintendo could have given you more power, more battery life and they didn't. You shouldn't praise them for that, you should give constructive criticism where criticism is due... And in this aspect it is due.
