I wish Nintendo would release a real console like it use to do before it went down gimmick road and never found its way back. I remember when Nintendo lead the way in performance and fun. I feel like the game cube was its last true powerhouse console that directly competed with Sony and Xbox. Miss those days.

I hear you but to be frank, they can’t compete on that level. They’re see as the kiddy console for better or worse. And that means they have to cost it out significantly cheaper than the competition and that leads to a console that isn’t as powerful.
Their gimmicks work for them. And let’s not forget, one man’s gimmick is another man’s innovation.
Xbox has proven that you can’t out PlayStation Sony, so I’m actually happy Nintendo forged their own path after Sony came along and took so much of their market share and mind share. Although right now they seem really desperate to delay the switch 2 long enough that the current switch can have a chance of beating PS2’s lifetime sales.

How does Xbox prove that you can't out Playstation Sony? That literally makes no sense. The Switch 2 is rumored for a 2025 release. And where are the articles that support that Nintendo are really desperate to delay the Switch 2? And yes Nintendo is gimmicky but the gimmicks pay off the Switch can go both handheld and be docked to a tv to play the game. Not all of Nintendo's gimmicks pay off.

At this point, I'd be happy if it's just a gaming console which dedicated focus is on just being a gaming console, so physical media, no accounts needed, no always online needed, no 'services', etc etc.

This industry really needs a reset and go back to basics, which is simply about games.
