Marketing is a powerful tool. You can sell anything if its marketed good. X1X is already hard to find stock of where I am from and I am talking about major retailers.
There are people out there that just want the best and people out there that want something new. So it will play well with that crown.

I didn't say there weren't devices more powerful than the Switch, in-fact there's another Tegra chip (the X2) that's almost twice as fast. I was saying the technology you were describing (cheap PS4 fidelity graphics in a handheld) doesn't exist yet. The Switch is $300 and is only slightly above a WiiU in handheld mode. It's going to be a few years before all the pieces needed for a PS4 equivalent are available and affordable.

Yep.

Selling so well, that a retailer i spoke to this morning while shopping said they had completely sold out their allotment, i asked how many, she replied 12,

loool )))

The PS3s Cell CPU was even superior to current gen Jaguar CPUs in certain calculations. Next gen will most likely feature Ryzen based CPU cores, which is a huge upgrade and certainly needed for future VR/AR endeavours. X1X and Pro are already struggling with CPU based games like AC Origins or Shadow Of War with drops to 22fps at places. That’s the main reasons I doubt they will be that future proof.

To put that into perspective the Pro pretty much sold out worldwide for almost half a year, if I remember right. Many stores only got 7 X1X examples or so, if reports on the net are to be believed.

honestly I find a little odd that you think that todays tech specially upcoming mobile tech cant out perform a 5 year old laptop APU and that too a crappy one, when AMD just showed that their latest APU can deliver 200x more performance then their last gen high end APU with a TDP of switch, now increase those tdp even further too 35w those same ryzen apu's are out performing a 91watt 5th Gen i5 processor.. also look at that gamecompany's new game SKY it looks as good as journey on PS4. 

If you are still not convinced here is another scenario, even if we take the latest techs of PSvita hardware, Like a PowerVR GT7900 mobile gpu, this gpu alone produces 1tf of performance now combine that with a custom design and 4 cortex A75 processor cores and a custom API, we have well over 1.5 teraflops of performance far better than xbox one. 

I wish the xboxOne was a PC with windows 10 with upgradedable hard drive slots SATA3 and m.2 nvme. I think Microsoft should focus on getting windows 10 into the living room and start competing with Steam. That is where the future is at.

When AMD's currently unreleased APU still falls a little short, and that's before the need to include more and much faster RAM than a Switch, a 1080p screen (since we're replicating the PS4's graphics), likley a bigger battery, far more internal memory, etc, yes, i remain sceptical this can all be put into a Switch sized case, kept cool, and have an acceptable battery life. I don't think that's odd.

Even a docked Switch is a considerably hardware step back from a PS4, yet it's $300. Either Nintendo are badly ripping everyone off, or a PS4 equivalent (which for the sake of argument we will say is 100% possible right now) would be an extremely expensive handheld. 

Well, we saw a jump of 8 times in TFs from PS3 to PS4.  So If we expect a similar jump from X1 to X2 then that means the X2 is gonna be barely twice as powerful as an X1X.

So the gap between the XoneX and the X2 should be A LOT smaller than the gap we have today between Xone and X1X.

Besides, when MS and Sony announced they were moving to the X86 arquitecture, I remember many developers applauding the move because that way they wouldn't have to start from scratch with every generation.

So yes, I totally believe that when 9th gen comes for MS, the X1X is gonna be their cheapest option to play the same games.  Just like Xone is their cheapest option now.

Or it can be dynamic resolution for example. By ''fake 4k'' i mean than none of the consoles supports native 4k in majority of games.
