If Sony makes a "Playstation Switch" could it succeed?

It wasn't my hypothetical thought, I'm just expanding on it.  Considering the thought of Switch failing due to a new PS Portable, was followed by a question directed to me about Pokemon and how it can solve all problems, my reply was simply if Switch fails, what does Pokemon matter? That question was never answered, and so I gave the option that Pokemon could be on PS devices. It also could be held back from PS devices in this case, but that would most certainly hurt the franchise unless Nin came out with totally new hardware that nobody knows about. Since those types of possibilities aren't acceptable in conversations about the future of hardware apparently, only facts about the here and now, I could only assume that putting Pokemon on PS devices made the most sense. What if the other 66% of Pokemon were sold to PS, then what?

Nin owns 33%, so what if PS were to buy the other 66%? Not sure how history plays into Switch since it's the very first Nin hybrid ever right? I also said a more capable Switch can't exist if a PS Portable couldn't, so if you believe that's not true, then you must agree PS could create a competitor. I never said I wanted Pokemon on PS, I just said in that specific scenario it would be a good idea if not necessary. I never said I want Nin or Switch to fail, but you mentioned Switch failing in a prior post, so what is it that you have against Nin?

You know the other 66% belong to Creatures Inc and Game Freak, Nintendo own 30% of each company, right? Also, Nintendo still own the name of game and all Pokemon. Sony can buy the 66% left but can't use the name  or any Pokemon appeared in the series, unless Nintendo allow to sell it to Sony. You didn't sayyou want Pokemon on PS but you mentioned Pokemon will have no choice but come to PS. And remember, Switch is using the Tegra chip which was provided by Nvidia and Xavier come out this year, smartphone/table always get upgrade model each year with stronger mobile chip. Show me a mobile chip from ADM  that is stronger than X1 and cost only $250 which last 4 - 5 hours or even 10 hours like you said

Once again, Nin only own a minority portion. If PS were to get their hands on a majority, regardless of what deals they had to make, then Nin now has no choice but to work with and negotiate with PS. If this were to ever happen, Nin would basically be forced to put Pokemon on PS devices, because if they didn't, PS would just roadblock Nin at all corners and could even purposely run Pokemon into the ground. Then what happens once Nin's "savior" has been tarnished? This kind of thing happens all the time in big business, and while I don't see this ever happening, your point about Switch failing is what led us here. Smartphones and tablets are devices that have been out for years and have a proven record. Switch is a brand new concept and has no history or record, so assuming it will follow any upgrade standard is as wild as a guess as a PS portable. If you insist on following records, then either Switch 2 will fail just like how Wii U failed, or Nin will drop the hybrid idea and come out with something completely different.

You've been told multiple times that the new Ryzen 2500u/2700u can meet those requirements, other than the price since we don't know what it would cost exactly in a few years. However, when you are asked to prove that a Switch 2 is on the way and that it will use an X3, your evidence is based solely on other products, which doesn't count, because if it did, then I can say the same thing and be equally as justified.
