The hardware gimmicks are kind of the entire point of Nintendo’s consoles. The Switch is also the third highest selling console of all time at 140 million copies.
Nintendo consoles being the only way to legally and easily play Pokémon, Mario, etc will always make them money. The actual problem with the Switch is that the original Switch’s CPU and GPU was already outdated when it first launched in 2017.
The outdated hardware also keeps Nintendo's game development costs comparatively low, which means more profit for them.
And, of course, the free army of retard neckbeards that will defend anything they do
If the controllers were pc compatible, there's the hardware gimmick problem solved.
The switch pro (controller) is usable on PC, but I don't think its HD rumble, tilt controls, and NFC amiibo bullshit work.
Nah, their strategy is why they're the only real console competitor left in the space.
They seem to be doing just fine with their own thing. I can't think of another developer that has had consistently quality and innovative titles in every generation since the 80s.
Not every business needs to expand into every possible niche. Them not doing so allows for enterprising developers a take their basic ideas and expand on them to get a leg up. The "like {Zelda | Mario | Metroid | Pokemon | Smash Bros }" description is equivalent to millions in free marketing.
