Well Turbo Grafx-16 was a compromised experience in itself so the portable version was too by default.

Nope. As far as I'm concerned you've wasted my time for no good reason. You're just going to have to use your brain to figure out what is an opinion and what isn't. 

The Switch is still a compromised experience.
Visually it pales in comparison to the PC, Xbox One, Xbox One X, Playstation 4, Playstation 4 Pro.

The difference between now and then however is that visually it's at a level that is "good enough" for allot of people, graphics snobs like myself will still deride it however.

On the performance side of the equation... 60fps games like Doom are compromised on the Switch with a 30fps cap, often falling below that number.

The Joycons aren't my cup of tea either, might be okay for a child, but I have large hands.

Then you have the terrible 720P, 6.2" screen, it's not winning any pixel density competitions.

In short, there is still a ton of room for improvement with the Switch, hopefully Nintendo gets there one day.

Not to mention it's still missing HDR10/Rec. 2020 colour space support and adaptive refresh rates like in the consoles ... 

G-Sync HDR was a missed opportunity on the Switch ... 

Yeah, I think the DS has one of the better gimmicks in comparison to other consoles. Being able to play older games like GBA games was also a nice plus.

You have the mobile phone and the tablet, both of which can connect to a PC. You have keyboards that can connect to mobile & Tablet devices, as well as storage ones too.

We do not need handheld gaming designed devices becoming exactly the same as a mobile/tablet device, because those other two serve their purpose, and they do so to billions out there.

Consoles have been primarily used as gaming devices for decades. Just because they allow you to listen to music and watch Netflix doesn't automatically take away the fact that the systems are designed purely for gaming first and everything else second and third. 

People have different ideas for the future, and it appears that the majority do not share in one man's "I think we should all be doing this like it or not" dream. 

The vita was certainly compromised, but sony absolutely did not want to cannibalize any ps4 sales during it's war of domination against microsoft.

I have a pstv which really is not bad. It's a shame it doesn't really have local multiplayer as that's what I mostly do nowadays.

You're too kind to him. There's plenty of cases with built in controllers that KBG could use. The developers of fortnite already annonced they will be adding bluetooth controller support, so there's already or soon will be a way to play fortnite  exactly as he described. But, since these phones are not as powerful as a PS4 and the controls are left to the game developers instead of supported automatically by the platform, It's just not good enough for the likes of Kevyn here. Ohh no. Sony is supposed to make a mobile Playstation phone that would likely be the most expensive phone in history, and sink all of that development time for a few thousand in sales at best because he would really like one.

I have a really hard time imagining Ken Kutagari stating that he envisioned playstation's OS to be on phones and car stereos and for all of those devices to interact with each other seamlessly and play the same copies of games. Source?

Ken oversaw the development of 4 of the 6 Sony consoles so he had plenty of time to implement his "Playstation is the hub of our digital lives" vision. Kev, are you forgetting his vision caused him to foolishly produce a "FIVE HUNDRED NINETY NINE US DOLLAR" console that had him ousted, and forced his successors to fight tooth and nail for years to recover from such a mis-step? As it turns out, the people who are interested in game consoles aren't willing to shell out hundreds extra to be on the bleeding edge of home entertainment technology. Meanwhile I bet dollars to donuts when our boy Kev here saw the PS3 announcement he thought something along the lines of "Why didn't they announce a PS3 that plays every game in 1080p/60fps, and has a built in DVR for $1199? I would have bought that day one!" . Meanwhile the PS4 Pro didn't even ship with a 4K blu-ray drive, and Kev here just isn't cluing in that Sony has zero interest in making the products Kevyn wants since you know, they want to make money.

I can't figure out if the bolded statement is opinion or not. See what you've done?

At the same time, if the other consoles came out now, wouldn’t you say that Switch felt like a compromised console experience until now?
