What "cool features" does Nintendo do anymore? The big draw of the switch was that it's portable, and there's dozens of handheld PC's to compete there. Then there's the motion control, which wasn't great in the long run and can also be done by emulators with a variety of controllers supporting it

Especially detachable controllers and their games supporting them. You can have two per player in a 4 player game, or 8 where each holds one. I quite liked the feature and found it novel. I am not sure if you can do the same using emulators - or at least do it as seamlessly.

You could just have extra regular controllers. That was always an option. And with the price of Joycons it wouldn't be much more costly
