It is with great sadness that I write in front of you today to remember a console, a much-loved console, hindered by a lack of software and a convoluted introduction way back during E3 2011. With its
After its latest games didn't meet sales targets, Square Enix is going multiplatform but the company's track record isn't convincing.
Square Enix been multiplatform for decades, a few exclusively-deals doesn't make them any less multiplatform.
SE needs to go all in optimization. Broken PC ports won't help its case, especially with big releases like mainline Final Fantasy
It's actually simple. What doesn't inspire confidence is Square allocating their budgets on the wrong projects such as Forspoken, Avengers, Babylons Fall and Foamstars.

I loved wiiu but Switch really makes it look bad in every way. It provided me with a few years of really great games.
"a much-loved console, hindered by a lack of software"
If it was as "much-loved" as you claim, it would have had the software. I've never heard of an entertainment company that doesn't want the widest possible audience.
Lastly, I think we're mostly all but too happy to forget that terrible, cramp inducing "gamepad", with a screen fist f**ked right in to the middle of it.
