It was the first hybrid which was used in gaming. Handheld market shrinking each year, look at DS to 3DS sales and PSP to Vita sales and this Switch is a new handheld Nintendo made with $300 price, outside some Nintendo portables fans, no one think they can sell decent, let alone success. Are you a Nintendo fan? Clearly not, if i'm not mistaken, many Sony fans disagree with Switch will continue selling in 2018 or more precisely, they think Switch will stop in 2018 and get GameCube sales or a bit more at best. Look like some change the attitude too fast, i wonder why. Because it is Sony, right?

Just because a market may be shrinking, doesn't mean those customers are gone forever, or new one's can't be added. Vita isn't a very good example because it's support and marketing was very poor. The proper product will sell, you just have to create it and market it correctly. Based on my avatar, yes, I am a fan of all brands. I do slightly prefer PS, but not by much. I don't know why you think I hate Nin. I've simply been trying to explain why a new PS portable could be possible, and all you seem to want to do is prove that somehow what I'm really trying to do is bash Switch. For what it is, it's a great product. Not exactly for me, mostly due to it's lack of third party support at the moment, which is why a PS portable that would play PS4 games, which would almost guarantee third party support, would be enticing. If Switch were $100 cheaper, with the support it has now, I could justify buying it for it's Nin games, but that's just me. Other PS fans can think whatever they want, but Switch looks to be on a roll, which doesn't guarantee it sells like Wii in the end, but it clearly is a major improvement over Wii U. This year should be a major indication. If Switch sales at the very least flatline and stay steady, 40M - 50M sales shouldn't be out of the question. Maybe sales increase, maybe they decrease. We'll see what happens. Many things can change in a years time, that may or may not be something Nin can control. The truth is, the better Switch does, the more likely PS or XB are going to try and create their own Switch.

Yeah, it clearly are lacking third party game when it have nothing compared to Wii or even Wii U in 10 months: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nintendo_Switch_games

And of course Sony can make better Switch by copy Nintendo idea's first then hope for AMD can make a mobile chip that is way stronger than Nvidia's Tegra X3 which cost $250 only and last 4 - 5 hours or even a lot more. It also can sell like PSP because all Western customers are willing to buy a portable when they love play on TV with mega hit like Sonymon - Pokemon killer
