Then once you reach this point, realize the software stack is so half baked (poor prop GPU drivers / lack of turnip support, modern emus still in very alpha stage and don't have real fully featured proper online multiplayer like their desktop counterparts, etc) that you're probably better off waiting another 5 years for it to all catch-up and it will be far cheaper and more usable too by then, hopefully.

What are these companies thinking? I don't buy devices to make calls. I buy them to avoid buying a $2000 600W GPU to game on with melting connectors that could potentially set my home on fire.
