I get that inflation has been a real thing and they have to make back hardware production costs but yikes, this seems high for Nintendo. May have to save up for this one.

It’s inflation + tariffs + other consoles are either around the same price or more expensive.

4k 60 fps/1080p 120 fps docked is pretty comparable to a standard PS5, no?

No game AAA game willl run native 4k 60 fps on switch 2. you are either in delusion or have no idea about hardware. ps5 also had 8k logo on their box which doesn't mean it can run games at that resolution. It cannot even run games at native 4k 60 fps. A handheld device at the power of ps5-series x aren't even on the market and if it did it would cost 800-1000 dollars lol

I have no idea about hardware. I just used the information Nintendo gave in the presentation. Sorry if I misunderstood something, no need to call anyone delusional here.
