It wouldve been a relative downgrade in specs, yeah.Wii U should have been different, but I'm not sure Switch was technically achievable 5 years prior.
I wonder if that timeline wouldve led to a switch pro though

For me, it's the GOAT. The new exclusives are incredible, and some of them are actually the best game in their respective series (Odyssey, Smash Ultimate, MK8 Deluxe). It has basically every console indie game. The back catalogue is incredible and it has first party controllers for consoles through N64 so you can experience very close to the originals without janky third party solutions. The amount of game collections is insane (Mega Man, Castlevania, FF, TMNT to name a few) and the ones that aren't part of the collection are also available on NSO or released standalone. You can play every mainline Final Fantasy game from 1 to 12, every mainline Resident Evil until RE2 remake, the entire Xenoblade franchise, all the Pikmin games, Bayonetta, etc.
You can play docked, but it's portable, it uses carts, you can expand storage with giant SD cards. It has decent online play (not the greatest, but finally). It comes in cheap small handheld and premium OLED models. Third party support for accessories was incredible as well, with a ton of cases, grips, controllers.
Agreed, and I'd even say the best Mario game ever made.
The Switch 2 is just gonna be more of the same…
…which is exactly why I'm excited for it.
NoLooks like a much better run than PS5, honestly.
its just facts
Quality over quantity! That's a solid list, and a lot of my own personal favorites are represented there.I don't own a massive amount of games for it. 32 games purchased (but 39 counting the collections).

I cant wait Monolith Soft's new game on Switch 2.
I love you and hate you at the same time. yes, I'm jealous.I think Switch will end up being my favourite system ever. I didn't expect it to, but it has just been a fantastic ride.
Here are some of my fondest memories.
March 2017
Launch. Coming out with Zelda: BotW was just magical, a huge adventure I had been waiting for ages. Then, soon after we got Arms, a beautifully designed, bizarre Nintendo first party game.

Christmas 2017
Xenoblade Chronicles 2, my Christmas holiday game in Scotland. Such a cozy, immersive adventure.

February 2018
Super Meat Boy on a scuba ship. The perfect game to dip into between dives.

April 2019
Dark Souls on an Easter break. On my triple dip to the game, it finally clicked with me in St Emilion over an Easter break. I went to finish the game, and all the other souls games. Now I play almost exclusively Elden Ring, including Nightreign.

Animal Crossing in the pandemic. What a perfect little escape, the game felt just so light, relaxing, immersive, when we were passing lockdown.

October 2021
We had just moved to French Polynesia, and I had an all new Metroid to dig into in our vacation rental.

January 2022
The pandemic travel chaos has us choose to fly a Global 7500 from Polynesia to Finland. Famicom Detective Club is the perfect game to pass the flight.

Pikmin 4 for my birthday. A perfect day on Moorea with my wife.

And beyond this, there are so many more memories.
Putting a hundred hours to Super Smash Bros, playing on a GameCube controller.
The pure joy of Super Mario Odyssey, Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze and Super Mario Wonder.
Endless hours of Splatoon multiplayer.
Getting addicted to Hollow Knight in Italy. Spending endless hours with Picross in Tahiti. Finally completing a Pokedex in a Pokemon game.
Unfolding the bizarre story of Deadly Premonition in Tetiaroa. The beauty of Octopath Traveller in Singapore.
Playing all the classic games with the NES, Super NES, Megadrive and N64 controllers.
Absolutely epic console.
Be careful, someone that obviously wish you harm put a glass of white wine next to your charcuterie and fromage plate
Man... Is this Bruce Wayne's GAF account or what. Epic.I think Switch will end up being my favourite system ever. I didn't expect it to, but it has just been a fantastic ride.

This is so cool. Love all those accessories and how they expand the Switch experience. A vertical setup has long been a dream of mine, as has that train controller.LOL no goodbyes for me it still gets hammered daily both at home & at work on my breaks. Switch holds the record now in my games collection of having the largest library of games i own on a system before that was the DS where i reached just a little over 400 on switch currently at 621 & rising there's still so many great games left to grab that i still haven't gotten around to it's an indie magnet. People always go on about oh nobody buys a switch for 3rd party games lol bullshit out of my switch library i'd say less than 50 are 1st party nintendo games the rest are 3rd party stuff.
Switch has some of the best rhythm games out there because it gets close to the arcade feeling, dotted through my collection are various full sized controllers and arcade sticks.
The joys of project diva using a full sized controller.

Even really geeky shit like densha de go has an audience on switch there's a ton of train sim games, this is the beauty of the switch it breached the gap between handheld & home console it ended up having a massive library of really fun & interesting stuff even super niche genres like train games.

It's why i never bothered with next gen stuff, there was absolutely no reason for me to buy another console when all the types of games i love were released on switch.
So many amazing exclusives you've missed out on...I'm guessing you just don't like certain genres like action or fighting or RPGs outside of the Xenoblade Chronicles games.Here's my entire Switch library in all its glory.

Animal Crossing probably got more play time than all the other games combined.
Ring Fit Adventure was bought for my wife, but she hated it.
Nintendo Labo was very cool, had a lot of fun making the cardboard toys with my daughter but they're all broken in the attic now.
Still haven't started Xenoblade 3, so maybe that's one for the Switch 2 at some point.
Yeah, there was a lot of stuff I missed. It just looked so bad on a large TV, I played mostly on Xbox and PC instead. The only digital game I have is Mario vs Rabbids, which I didn't like very much.So many amazing exclusives you've missed out on...I'm guessing you just don't like certain genres like action or fighting or RPGs outside of the Xenoblade Chronicles games.
