Okay my thesis on this:

Nintendo perfected the Handheld gaming console with the switch.

This thing is the first time ever that Nintendo upgraded an existing home console.

I hope they don’t fuck up the naming

What about NES>SNES or N64>Gamecube

Neither of those updates was revolutionary, imo

Im guessing its differentiated on te basis that neither new entry supported the previous' titles or peripherals. It is more an iterative improvement than a new console
