    Well, they probably didn't like the idea of hordes of their fans chanting Wii Switch! Wii Switch! We Switch....to PS4!...and so say all of us.

    Actually, I think that's what people *should* call this thing. Nintendo Switch is such a long name. WeWii Switch just rolls off the tongue more easily.

    lol

    On that note though, I imagine they are not calling it the Wii Switch due to the consumer base of Nintendo products. There is a large number of consumers who know next to nothing about video games (I'm guessing mom's etc.) who didn't understand that the Wii U was a different system than the Wii.

    Indeed, and a lot of Moms and others who don't know consoles/games/etc... will buy these for kids/grand-kids thinking they are so cool. It'll be like finding a record player in the box when you expected a CD player.

First time in a while im psyched for a console since it seems unique and not just a weaker PC in a box.
    The trouble is that the Wii Switch is weaker than the thing you describe as a weaker PC in a box. So where does that leave a game that wants to raise the min spec and embrace the DX12 feature set?
