But i don't see how you can compare Switch 2 to a home console, there is no handheld system as of now that can deliver PS5 fidelity or performance. So its obvious that if you don't care about portability or about Nintendo games, then yes the PS5 will be the better choice of hardware for your personal preferences. That's not some kind of profound revelation that if you buy hardware based on how to best run third party AAA games, the Switch 2 won't be the best alternative for you.

I agree with you, but since Nintendo has decided to voluntarily no longer sell home consoles, the Switch 2 docked is the only way to play their games on a TV. So we're sort of forced to compare it to what Sony is doing. And if you're someone who likes all games, not just what Nintendo is putting out, you're going to have to make a decision. Do you want half-baked ports and Nintendo games that don't really look all that much better than last gens? Or do you want the best third party support, fully-baked versions without any Nintendo games? It's a problem. 

Well, not for those of us who get multiple systems.

But still.

It would be nice if we could get something like a PS5 Pro Nintendo back ala SNES. Imagine the next Zelda launching along side GTA 6. It would slay the industry and save a lot of us a ton of money.

It was the market that decided that it didn't want home console Nintendo systems, other than the Wii they were on a big trend downwards for ages when it comes to the home console market. Only handheld Nintendo systems had a big enough market to justify continuing to exist. PS and Xbox already had the demographics that preferred home consoles, there wasn't a place left for Nintendo among those two.
