Why make a new dedicated handheld when Switch can already function as one? They've shown they cannot sustain two separate ecosystems any more, hence the Switch unifying both their handheld and console business.

Exactly. They could sustain two systems if they wanted to, but why would they do that when they don't have to. It means less fragmentation, less cost, easier for developers. The Switch will slowly push the 3DS out of its handheld throne and once that happens the support for 3DS will stop and they'll be able to put all their focus to one system.

This.... this is what I think nintnedo is doing. Exactly. If nintnedo announces a new handheld they will fragment the switches potential because it's obviously trying to woo the Wii U and ds traditionalists simultaneously.
