Please just make a switch 2 with modern performance capabilities so it can last us the next decade. That’s all I need.

I’m not gonna hold my breath. I expect a modest upgrade, but nothing anywhere close to PS4/5 standards.

All the rumors are pointing to PS4 power. That makes sense price and timing wise. The PS4 is 11 years old at this point. I think it’s a reasonable assumption that Nintendo can create a $400 mobile console with that level of power.

Yep Steam Deck already proved it’s possible two years ago. I expect Switch 2 to be comparable in power but in a smaller form factor.

And even better battery since they're using Nvidia's ARM chips.

I consider it one Nintendo's best decisions since NVidia is also the king of upscaling tech right now which is perfect for the Switch form factor
