It costs too much for them to build Switch and they have a problem called Nividia.

The Xbox 360 Uncloaked: the Real Story Behind Microsoft’s Next‑Generation Videogame shows how hard was to deal with them to drive costs of the Xbox 1 GPU. They don’t own the intellectual property of the chips with Nvidia, like the relationship that Sony and MS have now with AMD where they can redesign the chip themselves if they want to (like Nintendo once had with ATI).

In reply to Mark. When the PS4 and XBOX1 first came out they were selling them at a loss.

So they’re making what, $43 bucks in profit per console? I wonder what MS and Sony are getting vs cost per machine?
