That's exactly what PC gamers think about the PS4 version you played.
The fact that the Switch version will be on a small screen most of the time means it will be hard to see any downgraded effects
Yes, but the PC is not a valid gaming platform for me for a number of reasons, from hideous looking and big pc cases (cheap ones) that do not belong to the living room, or extremely expensive good ones that 'might' belong to a living room, pricey hardware and literally my preference playing on a sofa in a living room rather on my workstation and office chair, plus mobility of the console itself.. There is no way you can build a pc as powerful and as silent and mobile as the Xox for the same amount of money. Let's not even go there.
I simply prefer my gaming on a console for a variety of reasons and my statement goes beyond the multiplats that appear on PC. Wolfenstein does, but not all of them do. Also, the jump between the ps4 pro/xox and a pc would not be that big (for me) vs the change from the ps4 pro/xox to the switch. If you only care about a portable mode then it might be fine, but hooking it up to a 55", nope. Don't forget it is going to be more expensive too.

You'll never know if you'll like it until you've tried it
And i said the same closing my comment but there is a gamble that i am going to like it or not and the price is gonna be higher too. Guys, nintendo going with lesser hardware meant this thing all along. I am fine with their choice but i am going to choose the option that makes more sense to me. Now if you ask me to spend half the money and get a better version... guess what i would do.

How quickly people start bitching about something that's only existed for a year (console games on a portable). Technology is not literally magic, so your expectations are clearly very ridiculous, but I'm sure you're aware of that. It's like complaining about PS4 because it's a huge graphical downgrade from a full tower PC with a GTX 1080Ti. This is stuff we already knew. High-end gaming machines don't cost $300 or less, and that applies across the board.
There is a big difference comparing 2 machines of the same architecture yet lesser power and a completely new architecture that is mobile intended. Yes, the ps4/xbox will never be as powerful as the most powerful pc but they never meant to be that. They were meant to be a very good option for playing new/current gen games in a very good compromise. You also have to think of a pc when the ps4/xbox one came out and what the performance of a $400 pc was then compared to them. A console is a 'fixed' platform and as such, while prices drop for pc components, the same is not applicable to consoles, as they are not upgradeable. The switch goes in the opposite way, expecting devs to take the plunge and port the unportable. I really expected Nintendo to have 2 consoles this time around again, one that can compete at the same or better level with the ps4/xbox and a portable one. Hell, they could even be compatible so it is the same cartridge, just playing different at the 'home' switch and portable switch. Then people like me who do not care about playing in portable mode would just get the home console instead, essentially exchanging the cost of the screen, joycons and dock, with better hardware and a pro controller.
Guess which version of DS3 or Wolfenstein i would get if the fidelity and price was the same between the Ps4,Xbox and Switch at home?
It is not really bitching. People 'expect' stuff from companies, especially companies they love and follow around. It's called expectations. Nintendo might feel they do the best for them, but that is not necessarily the best for me.
