The Nintendo Switch is a fantastic device. I think it is the best system Nintendo has ever created and that the company should continue to build on the platform rather than shelving it for something else.

Nintendo has found itself under fire after it sent a cease-and-desist letter in September to a creator for selling custom Joy-Con shells that were created in honor of Desmond “Etika” Amofah.
