You'd need all new accessories anyway with a complete redesign.

I've bought every Nintendo console up until the Wii U. Since they abandoned that early, I decided to skip the Switch. I'll likely pick this up. If this doesn't do well and gets abandoned early again, I'll at least get to play all the games I've missed over the years due to backwards compatibility.

The Switch has so many good games! Sure, most are available on other platforms as well, but overall it's such a great system.
