PCs aren't fast enough to compete with Switch. One of the best things about Switch is reminding everyone why consoles originally trumped computers for gaming.

I believe he meant like laptops? But that still isn't true if you have a high end one.

Im happy with my Swith in terms of the graphics. Just need bigger buttons on the joycons.

It takes less than 3 seconds to start gaming on Switch. You can win a few races in Mario Kart in the time it takes for PC to boot and Steam to load.

Don't Play Stationary 4 ever. Switch!

Hey, the X1X is apparently smaller than the X1S. Slap a screen on that with a battery... sounds feasible.

MS should do that so they can boast about having the most powerful portable console too.

It would flatten any battery in a minute and you're not going to fit a vapor-chamber cooling solution into a tablet.

It weighs too much, it's much too large, it uses too much power and it generates too much heat.

Yeah, it would be like the Game Gear.

Still cool though.

If your PC is that slow then you don't have an SSD. Literally takes me 10 seconds from pressing the power button to booting steam.

You're vastly exaggerating the Switch too, it takes about 6-8 seconds to boot the OS, BotW takes around 12 seconds to boot, and a further 24 seconds to load your save file.

I want a Switch that is TV only. Replace the joyconz, screen and put in beefier hardware.

Is 1080P on a 6in LCD really going to make a noticeable difference?

If it's like 2 feet away from your face, absolutely.

Impressive, takes me 10 seconds just to type in all my usernames and passwords.

I have an SSD. No internet connection though.

Well it does take more time if you actually need to power on the device.
The Switch is a decently executed device that offers fast, simple pausing of games.
Far more convenient than anything PC side.

No screen/battery/joycons.
Pro controller included
500GB harddrive
Global achievement system
Pikachu themed console design
Low price

That's all

I basically want none of this. Nintendo do none of that. Switch TV version is not needed. I do not need another home console that fails in comparisons to the PS4.
