While great and all, I think that this generation has been heavily impacted by COVID and chip shortages, so I think it's only fair for all manufacturers to basically add two years onto the lifespan of their consoles.
I've often been a critic of Nintendo, but the Switch is a fantastic device with a solid library of games behind it. Not only that, but for indie titles it's great. It probably gets more use than my PS4 and PS5 combined. For little kids, being able to take the console anywhere is a huge plus.
I heard that the SWOLED was going to be a hardware upgrade too but they pared it back due to covid. Apparently the screen cost nintendo an extra $10 to manufacture.
