Ok, Switch is using mobile SOC, that is confirmed already, also, of course it will not be powerful as Current gen consoles but look at this side:
Phones are known for having terrible GPU drivers due to their laziness, causing bad performance, except some rare occasions like nvidia shield devices and considering Switch is using some Nvidia chip and Vulkan API we can at least expect good use of their hardware compared to the smartphones.https://www.khronos.org/conformance/adopters/conformant-products#vulkan

Wouldn't mind Titanfall 2 on the go. I love me some mech brawl/shooting games.anyway who want this on the switch ?
I think it looks like that because it is a port of the Ps3 version.
Disgaea didn't have to be downgraded for the switch
Wow so much fuss about its power.
People shoukd keep in mind that it isba portable system.
Yes it plugs up to a tv but at the same time you can take the system with you like a 3ds.
So if it never dock to the tv. I think no one would fuss.
They would just wow at the power from a handheld.
I think the switch has enough power to get the job done on the go and on the tv.
And if nintendo waited for a better chip it would of been to long and they would be to far behind. And probably out of money. The wii u isnt doing well.
But we will see what happens. Once ot launchs and everyone gets there hands on it we will start to see what the devs think of it.

If graphics didn't matter then we'd still be playing 8bit and 16bit consoles. Come on. Now, considering that Nintendo wants to step up and reconquer customers they lost years ago, being up to date with gaming systems from 2013 shouldn't be asking too much. Yes, the Switch is a hybrid system but it doesn't give a pass for Nintendo to release a WiiU 1.5.
Haha, "the WiiU isn't doing that well." it never really did, in fact, it was a commercial failure.
That's just an excuse for horrible sales. I would understand if the first year it was out sales would be horrible thanks to that reason but it also sold horrible years after so that reason doesn't stick. It' just an excuse fanboys Always use to defend those horrible sales
you know that its a circle of doom?
Screwed up launch + lacking marketing = very few sales = few buyers = less games and so on.
And no i am no fanboy i dont even own a wii u.
I think it was worse than a commercial failure. (that would only mean losing money today)
It was more like a Saturn (or Dreamcast too).
A loyal customer relationship breaker. A backstab that could stain the brand's future.
But well, that's me.

, Reason: Learn2write dyslexic ass.
i still do (on vwii)
Like i said. I would accept that reason for the first year it came out but not the years after because people by then and now know it's a succesor. Most gamers do and the system is bought by gamers. Only the Wii was bought by casual people who didn't even game as much but all previous systems didn't. So that reason is complete utter bullshit since gamers knew it was a complete new console. I hate that people bring up that reason that nobody knew it was a new console when gamers did just not casual people who don't game but all previous systems were bought by gamers and not casual people who don't game.

True grahpic are important but there not everything.
There at tons of games that dont look the realist but play very well and work out great.
But i guess thats just me i pick game play over graphics
But that's the problem. Not a single person here is saying graphics over gameplay but as soon as you start talking about graphical power people start getting triggered spouting " you only care about graphics !!!!" wich nobody said anywhere here in this comment section. People are just saying it's important for them to get 3th party support for them to succeed and without 3th party support they won't. It's just dumb as soon as you start talking about specs people start calling you a graphic whore or not real gamers wich nobody is prefering over gameplay but people like to make stuff up to defend their fanboyism.

Heh. WiiU at least wasn't killed almost straight away like the Dreamcast was.
The Dream lives on.
real gamers don't give a shit about gfx only gfx whores do. all that matters is GAMEPLAY
and it's a gaming device
Again, your opinion. Is not a fact. On the other hand, it is exactly the GAMEPLAY that will be MISSING from this console, i will be missing, and not the graphics. Power would just enable more support. But apparently, Nintendo's flawed logic seems to resonate.
