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

I mentioned this after the Switch was announced, so I'm not sure why you think the success of the Switch has anything to do with my comment.

Again, my point was that Sony has already made a console that shared many core concepts with the Switch, so if they released a new handheld that shared many core concepts with the Switch, they'd also be releasing a handheld that shared many core concepts with the PSP go, so they wouldn't be copying Nintendo, they would be evolving technology they already created and released.

That's it.

Also, the PSP sold over 80 million consoles, and was clearly a successful platform, how on earth can you credit Nintendo as the first to do this concept successfully?

Successful with the best selling game on psp is MHP 3rd in JP with only 4,9 mil. PSP sold over 80 million, that number sales of games is not good by any mean. PSP can connect to TV but not dock and not get over 25% power boost in CPU, GPU, fps and resolution when dock either. Nintendo is the one made a gaming handheld with touch screen like DS before Sony came out with Vita. So in this case, Sony didn't copy, right?

So now we're going to measure success by the highest selling game? By that metric the Wii U was a resounding success, but a handheld that sold over five times as much wasn't. Sounds like a terrible metric to me.

The PSP has a dock that allows it to connect to a TV, and it actually has a boost that makes it go from 222mHz to 333 mHz, which is a 50% increase. So there's that. This performance increase can be used to improve FPS, and other in-game improvements.

And why are we bringing up touch screens? I'm not accusing Nintendo of copying Sony anywhere. You keep arguing against points I never made. Please stop that.
