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

They won't; Nintendo has gone through large leaps in graphical power before and it didn't stop the majority of their games pursuing stylized graphics. The Wii U was a huge leap over the Wii graphically, yet they didn't suddenly make Mario or Zelda or Donkey Kong attempt realism.

There was that demo trailer back during GCN I think, for Zelda, where Nin went for realism. It was actually pretty great looking, at least back then. They obviously dropped that idea and have steered clear ever since, so the odds they ever play with that idea again would seem slim.

Yeah they don't avoid realism entirely; Twilight Princess pursued a more grounded look for its time, and Metroid typically aims for a semi-realistic approach, albeit in a sci-fi setting. But yeah, 90% of their games are highly stylized, and I doubt very much that will change with Switch 2.
