    I wonder of “conservative hardware evolution” in this context just means that it’ll still be a switch, just with upgraded internals.

    The fact that the built-in screen might be 1080p implies a decent leap in performance. That’s twice as many pixels as a 720p/800p screen.

      Marketing for “the hardware will be outdated sh1t”.

      They planned and designed switch 2 a few years ago and are only releasing it now. The hardware will be less powerful than a mid-range smartphone. But it will be better than switch 1. So, evolution, right?

      They really need to give it more powerful processors. It felt like a shame that Tears of the Kingdom ran so poorly that it was uncomfortable to play.

      Nintendo’s games deserve better hardware.

      On a related note, why don’t they put a GPU in the dock so that the games can run much better when connected to a TV?
