By your logic, the PS4 failed as the successor to the PS3. It still hasn't reached PS3 sales and not even close to PS2 sales, hell even PS1 sales for that matters.
By all of your logic, console gaming will die in favor of PC gaming.
The thing is, Nintendo always had a different approach to handhelds ever since the Game and Watch during the early 80s. Switch already has potential.
Vita also had potential, but was mistreated and poorly executed. And it's not the Vita's fault, it's Sony's. The whole excuse of smartphones is irrelevant. The same could be said for the 3DS and look how it turned out.
It's not the market that hurt them, it's the way how they treated the market.
