You clearly don't know what a dedicated gaming device is. Smartphones are not dedicated gaming devices. |
Anyone can use any device as a "dedicated gaming device".
Either way, consoles are no longer dedicated gaming devices, we moved away from that during the 7th gen where consoles became media-centers.
And lastly... You don't have the authority to tell anyone to do anything.

You continue to gloss over the fact that I have stated "Dedicated Gaming Device" in every single one of my posts. Worse yet, you seem to think that Android and iPhones actually are dedicated gaming devices. Here's a visual guide to clear this up. Examples of Dedicated Gaming Devices (Devices designed specifically for playing video games as their primary function):    
Examples of Mobile Phones (Devices designed specifically as mobile phones as their primary function):   
Mobile phones are not considered "dedicated gaming devices that can conveniently make phone calls". They are mobile phones first, that yes can do a wide range of other functions. When a mobile devices sells, we do not track it as a video game system sale, a calculator sale, a calendar sale, etc. It's a mobile phone. |
Here is the kicker... And I know it's a shocker. But consoles these days come with a multitude of additional "features" like media players, web browsers, apps like Youtube/Netflix and more.
They aren't dedicated gaming devices and haven't been for years... It all comes down to how someone uses the device, if all they use the device for is gaming... Then by it's literal definition, it's a dedicated gaming device and thus the underlying form factor/operating system and/or technology is redundant.
Sorry for the late reply, had a few horrific jobs. |
It doesn't help you or anyone to be pedantic the fact is yes single media went the way of the dodo, modern phones are multimedia so are PC's and consoles and that happened a damn site early than Phones but it doesn't take away there underlying purpose people aren't paying scalpers for the multimedia functions of the next gen they aren't being sold on how good their web browser is .
Now my point toward the OP is why would you turn the Switch into a pseudo 5G mobile phone when the market lure and money is in the billions of people already there in the ecosystem and it's been open for your business for years ,
