Well, there's the kicker. That's fine for gamers who are old/moneyed enough to bring extra batteries, charging packs, etc., but that's not going to market to parents who want something for a road trip. Nintendo is markets to little kids big time (my three-year-old niece plays Mario games). They have to appeal to parents' needs. To do that, they would have to keep the DS or make the Switch carry a longer battery life.
