I do think the Switch could have a good chance to last longer than 5 years, but I don't think it'll go as far as 2025. The tech would be way past outdated by then.

Will Switch in 2025 be more outdated than 3DS in 2018?

Well, if Nintendo's next platform was just being announced  around 2025-2026, wouldn't the Switch be around 8-9 years old? With how the PS4/XBO is in terms of power, the Switch is already behind those 2 consoles and modern home console games are already quite demanding, which will only grow as time goes on. I figure it'd only get more difficult for 3rd party to support the system unless they made games specific for the console. So I figure Nintendo would need to make new hardware before at least 2025.

In terms of the 3DS, games made for portable devices usually require less resource so power isn't as big of an issue for those types of systems.
