It's Switch for me, and largely just because of the fact that it has both in one package. No separate software libraries. Pretty impressive for a handheld. All of their studios focused on one system. Over 6 years, all of Nintendo's output (I guess that's not really true for all six of the years, but you get the point) has been focused on one system. That's meant a lot of must play games.
I should add though that I am very disappointed in the joy con drift issue. Basically, the Switch's primary controller is trash. That's a pretty serious problem, and I am especially disappointed in the relative lack of acknowledgment and a failure to take the pro-consumer action on the part of Nintendo. But, if we separate this hardware problem from the overall enjoyability of the system, Switch gets the top spot.
If we take Switch out of it, I probably have to go with Wii U and 3DS. It's not because either of those systems were great. But, I don't feel like they ever had a point where both systems were great. Maybe Wii and DS, but I was never that into the Wii. Wii U and 3DS had some seriously great games, so they're going to get my second place vote.
