Its this wonderful device bruh, it has PS4 type of games but its a handheld. You can stream PS4 games to it from anywhere. So you can be on the beach, and instead of enjoying the fun in the sun? You can be playing Knack (sure it'll be a lowered resolution lag fest, but its about options)
So Nintendo really has given up. They're going full portable here. Third party developers will likely continue to ignore them or give them table scraps. This is too different from what the rest of the industry is doing. A Nintendo console at this point can't be a device that demands special attention and resources from developers because as we saw with the Wii U they won't dedicate that to a Nintendo console.
What you said makes a lot of sense. Then I remembered that the 3DS is still selling very well, every child I come across usually has one. They have the entire market to themselves already.
Now they care combining that market with their failing console market. Makes the kids who rock with 3DS transition to their "console". Its very Microsoft of them
This is exactly what parents buy. Its exactly what fans of Nintendo would want. Not the "I have nostalgia" gamers, the actual gamers who continue to line Nintendo's pockets with bread
Your theory should apply to the rest of us, but does it? My backlog disagrees with you...
I figured that Nintendo's new console would be a hybrid. Let's face it they make more on handhelds then they do on consoles so this merger wasn't unforeseen. I think this was definitely designed for the Japanese consumer in mind which I can't say is a bad thing. I know it's going to get that third party jrpg support so i'm in just based off that. As for the third party western developers they will probably avoid this like the plague just like they did the wii u. It's good Nintendo is separating themselves from Microsoft and Sony since they would of flopped anyways trying to compete. Sony and Microsoft are too far ahead of the game for Nintendo especially when it comes to online infrastructure which Nintendo still needs to vastly improve upon.
Price and games will be the biggest selling point for me. Personally I don't game on the go much, so I would primarily use it a home. I hope they have cheap storage solutions for digital games and they could really benefit by doing Flash sales more like Sony does with PSN for some of their older titles.
Game freak are shyt at developing portable games and the Pokemon Go devs are shyt at maintaining servers. Either way you'll get the same broken half baked experience no matter what.

Wait didn't the psp hook up to a TV last generation. What makes this a hybrid and not just a handheld that you plug into your TV. Is that people don't want to admit the Nintendo just bowed out of the home console market?
