- It's the most powerful dedicated gaming portable on the market so no matter what argument you use this fact doesn't change the sheer fact that the only argument you can bring are non gaming devices and tech that's not even being used by anything in dedicated gaming highlights this. 

- What are you even on about here you argued about Nintendo having both platforms alongside each other in order to not cut the Switch short that means Nintendo having to support more than one platform and again with the mid gen refresh nonsense Nintendo is not Sony or MS that's another pointless move as you release a new platform then do a refresh in 4 years, the Switch it self is in its 4th year and still bulldozing the charts, under your notion a refresh would be out now that adds nothing of value. I don't get the logic you're trying to push here it's like you want them to just release hardware for the sake of it.

- It's one to get the tech the industry is going to use by rushing out a platform that won't even be using it? You haven't thought this through you've just given a knee jerk reaction and Curl is correct you have to wait because your suggestion undermines what you actually want to the point that the suggestion's outcome contradicts the argument of why you want the said action the Switch has the luxury of being able to wait for mobile tech to catch up no need to sacrifice that luxury along with its success. PS5 and XSX are high end level tech performance wise going by their specs no current tech is going to match it in the mobile scene and your suggestion would mean current tech would have to be used with a further refresh needed later that's inefficient business as Nintendo could just wait and use better tech later that gets ports easier and won't require a refresh while competing.

Read what was posted Switch was announced a year in not R&D started a year in this meant we knew a confirmed platform to replace the WiiU was on the way and it was still given 3 years of further R&D when replacing a failing platform and you think ports which play a minimal part in Nintendo's current success are going to force them to drop the Switch? Skyrim is a game that was on 360, Doom and such are small linear shooters while TW3 is a large open world game the difference is easy to see and the's a reason why after TW3 power stopped being used as an excuse as TW3 was and still is the most demanding game of the gen until Cyberpunk arrives.

It's not just about tech being ready it's also about factors like performance, platform and business situation, how your competition is performing, strategic timing etc... The irony is what you're suggesting is something they did before to get third party support it's called the WiiU.
