I'm curious to see how this goes. Nintendo really is the only company I'd consider buying a console from anymore. Sure, they're hardware isn't very powerful, but it's pretty hard to justify an Xbox or Playstation when a good gaming PC is a better long-term investment. Nintendo, for all if its faults, is constantly innovating what a system can be, while it's competitors just release the same product with upgraded graphics.

That being said, the Switch 2 sounds like exactly that: a slightly upgraded switch without any real innovation. Usually, even Nintendo's failures are interesting, like the Virtual Boy or the Wii U. They almost never release a slightly upgraded product (the only exception being the Game Boy Pocket, which they only made because the Virtual Boy flopped)

No matter what you think of Nintendo as a company, the industry does better when they're pushing the envelope. For all the (well deserved) praise the Steam Deck gets, it wouldn't exist if the Switch hadn't laid the groundwork for it. I'd much rather see Nintendo take a big swing, like integrating AR or VR, into a less powerful system than see them push out a next gen Switch every 5 years. Hopefully there's more to the Switch 2 than just a hardware upgrade, or else Nintendo (and maybe even consoles in general) might be in trouble.
