Just revealed Bobby Kotick and Nintendo have had active talks about the next-generation Nintendo console, is close to Gen 8 in power (PlayStation 4 / Xbox One)

While Nintendo's hardware is less powerful on every level, I think that the majority of their games have lots of effort put into them. While Nintendo definitely has had some horrible games (Mario Party 9, 10, Animal Crossing Amiibo Festival, Mario sports since the mid 2010s) or just plain average games (see New Super Mario Bros starting with the Wii entry) and their stance on emulation is horrible, I honestly think they put out some of the most creative games ever made (see Splatoon, The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild, Tears of the Kingdom, Super Mario 64, Pikmin 1, 2, 3, 4, F-Zero GX). At least give them a point for not putting microtransactions in their $60, now $70 games like other publishers (looking at you Activision, EA, Microsoft).

As for their hardware, I would rather them put their games on PC (so I don't have to rip them myself). I like that they try new things with their hardware that few others do (see Wii motion controls (although a bit overdone at first), 3D gaming (3DS), a console that you can take anywhere (sure they weren't the first to attempt it but they were the first to pull it off)). That being said I would much rather also be able to play their games on my Android or Steam Deck. The only reason I'm excited for their new hardware is to see what (if anything) new they will try, and for them to jump at least a decade closer to where the industry is at in terms of computing power.
