It's weird that fanboys still desire the latest tech from Nintendo. They haven't given a damn since the GameCube.

And you know what, i still like my graphical fidelity, but thats what the PC is for. Nintendo consoles are for the great gameplay loops they always manage to develop into there games.

develop into there games

They develop it into here games, too!

I guess the issue is that the Switch has viable competition in form factor from the Steam Deck. There's no longer any illusion that Nintendo put the best tech possible into a portable console.

When a competitor can run the Switch's games on an emulator better than the Switch can run them natively, that'll definitely leave people wishing they could play their Switch games legitimately on more powerful hardware.
