    Idk, I’m not saying I care about graphics specifically, just that equal hardware would allow more 3rd party games to utilize it. The thing that is stopping people from enjoying those games on other consoles is money. People don’t want to buy multiple systems. All I’m saying is I think nintendo should make decent hardware so that users can play the 3rd party games they want on their Nintendo system instead of buying at minimum another console.

      Buying games on other platforms is so much cheaper that there’s already no reason to buy them on Switch. Games that are $4 on Steam and included with Gamepass/PS+ are $35 on Switch.

      Nintendo systems are for Nintendo games.

      Equal hardware wouldn’t be portable though.

        Ehhh, they could take a few things from the steam deck. If nintendo really wanted to, they could definitely make a portable system with equal hardware.

          Equal to the PS5? No. Equal to the Steam deck? Yeah I guess.
