Been thinking about it recently, and I honestly feel that the Switch is probably the perfect console form factor. Obviously, physical specifications can be improved (faster processor, more battery life), but in terms of the form factor itself, it’s so balanced in the way you can play it on a big screen and handheld

I don’t think Nintendo would ever move away from this model, but thinking ahead (even after a potential Switch 2), how could Nintendo evolve beyond this type of form factor? Or is this perhaps the peak of this type of design and we’re just getting improved specs/minor ergonomic changes from here on out (which I’d be totally fine with)?

    Give me a Nintendo Phone. I already pay big bucks for a phone every few years; what if I pay big bucks instead for a Nintendo Phone that can also play Nintendo games?

    I’d love to just whip out my Nintendo Phone and play a quick match or two of Splatoon or solve a few shrines in Zelda wherever I am. I can already imagine the increased netcode lag over cellular data in Splatoon already… maybe it isn’t a good idea…
