Would you rather have the Switch or a powerful conventional Nintendo Home Console that competes with PS & Xbox?

If Nintendo released a home console that was as powerful as whatever Sony had on the market within the same gen? I'd be on that faster than a fast. They haven't done something like that since Gamecube... which was (not coincidentally) the last time I stood in line overnight for one of their consoles. I'd be over-the-moon excited.

Going for AAA graphics just doesn't make sense from a money making perspective, which is what Nintendo thinks about. I mean, its crazy that Nintendo has earned more profits during the Switch era than Sony Playstation has earned in 30 years from gaming. Graphical power race is simply a dead end from a profit perspective.

Yeah, but the thread was asking what would make me happy, not what would be best for Nintendo's bottom-line, or stock-holder's bank accounts. I bought almost all their handhelds throughout the years, and I loved them. But home consoles were always my main squeeze. And when Yamauchi was going toe-to-toe with everyone else, and we were getting games like Rouge Squadron 2 and Metroid Prime on the big screen, games that were either equal, or graphically superior to what was on Playstation and Xbox? It was just awesome. Pure bliss.

I miss it.
