The difference is that you can play the same ports on the go. It's what makes the switch interesting compared to the other two, among many other things.

It also by the same fact highlights why Nintendo shouldn't go third party, because they do things the other two wouldn't, and open options to consumers.

One valuable lesson we learned from losing SEGA. Imagine how freaking stagnant the industry would be without any sort of wild card. It doesn't always work, and the ideas aren't always good, but at least Nintendo branches out in directions to give gamers an outlet that's different from the same old, same old.

Exactly, the industry would be boring as fuck if there were just Xbox and Playstation, to me anyway. Nintendo keep things varied and fresh.

For me the best time in my life as a gamer was the 7th gen because we had Xbox and Playstation pushing the limits of AAA blockbuster gaming, but also Nintendo doing something so completely different with the Wii, it was great, they went together like peanut butter and chocolate.
