They didn't really "cheap out" on the Switch; it was quite capable for a mobile platform at its time and price point. It's more that portables simply cannot be as powerful as dedicated consoles due to the laws of physics.

Uhhh.. Microsoft/Sony losses something like 50-100USD per console they sell right out of release year. 

While Nintendo profits something like 100USD per console they sell right out of release year. 

Reason? Beause Nintendo cheaps out on hardware. They charge you 300USD for the console, but it costs something like 200USD. While Microsoft/Sony's consoles costs 500USD to make. 200USD vs 500USD cost to make console, is there not a more obvious cheap out than this? 

Above numbers are estimates, but not far from actual numbers I bet. 

You would be the worst business man.
