I hate the name and look The idea is cool though. I'll probably never use it on the go so I'm glad the home controller is simple. That's what killed the Wii U imo. You NEED to be able to buy more controllers separately too.

Nintendo adore their handhelds, I don't think they'd throw them out just yet. Maybe if the Switch sells 100m but Nintendo are actually making decent business decisions at the moment, they need to wait and see what happens with the Switch first, at least.
