The Switch line was great because it integrated their console and handheld lines into one. They won't go away from that.

For better or worse, they don't always stick to a winning formula (see the Wii U). I think it would be cool if they added a lid to protect the screen... Maybe another screen in the lid?

Wii U stuck to it. Same motion based, same wiimote along with new pad, same CD style. They marketed it very, very badly
