i've never cared about graphics in nintendo games, they don't need to be amazing like the steam deck. that's not the reason you buy a nintendo console.

however, i was was playing totk yesterday, and it was so clear that the switch is underpowered. so much stuttering, and the lack of an antialiasing filter in that game is so obvious.

The steam deck apu isn't even top of the line.

Could not play TotK on my switch for more than an hour. I got fed up and ended up emulating it at 1440p 60fps.

I never cared about specs on a Nintendo console until I played a lagging, garbage mess. Totk, Arceus, FE3H, etc. Basically everything you said in your second paragraph.

Playing Dead by Daylight on the Switch is a slog. Desperately waiting for cross progression.
