The reason?
I am 33 have a son, a wife, a 13 hours job, i have things to do at home, am going shopping etc. Tell me. When do i have the time to turn on my PS/PC? The moment i think about the time i would need until i am in the steam login window, i give up. It is just too long. I am so busy that i Simply cant. Snake phantom pain is still on his first missions. I want to play it heavily but i dont have time. Now i have the switch. I am in the sleeping room in my bed just pushing 1 button and am in back in the game in 3 secons while beeing in my bed and next to my son and wife. If you dont have any time you really dont care about graphics, you just want to play. And the switch is giving me low lvl pc settings quality games but I CAN PLAY. My PC has 4k 30fps but I CANT PLAY. And my ps4 is the same. Dustmachine.

And how much more time take you to click home on PS4 and it to already be on the game you were playing before? Or use PSVita to stream the game for you?

I tried the Vita option for both PS4 streaming and PSNow streaming (when it was available on Vita) and the latency was somewhat high and the lack of certain buttons did not make it a very compelling experience. My next attempt was with a smartphone, Dualschock 4 controller, and the PS4; the latency here was much lower but it was only really practical (I tried exposing the PS4 through my router so that I could connect to it from data or while using an external Wi-Fi and the latency was so high that it was unplayable) when at home and it still felt more awkward than using the Switch.

With the Switch I can just play it anywhere without having to connect to a network and worry about latency, etc. It is just a much better solution both at home and especially on-the go.
