My expectations for the switch successor are reasonable I think

Backwards compatible with the Switch

performance boost when docked (I’d be perfectly happy with solid 1080p 60fps)

Mobile performance of 720p 60fps (lower detail settings than docked)

And I dunno just get a modern fucking friend/online system or at the very least let me integrate discord lol

To use the PS5 as an example, it’s based on Zen 2 and RDNA 2, both of which are now deprecated. It would not be surprising for Nintendo to match them at this point in the cycle.

The Steam Deck uses the same architectures by the way, with different core counts and a few more differences in capabilities

Yes it is surprising, it’s a high TDP desktop x86 SoC vs a low TDP mobile ARM SoC. Not close.

Did Nintendo announce that Switch 2 is ARM?

I don’t know. It’s obviously arm. They partner with Nvidia, they want backward compat, and it’s a mobile device.
