Regarding Switch’s technical performance, Eggebrecht said its between Wii U and Xbox One. However, he claims that developing is as easy or even easier than the PlayStation 4. Switch is further supported by having all modern GPU standards.

-Switch is performance wise between Wii U and Xbox One
-developing is as easy or even easier than on PS4
-all modern GPU Standards
-they got all rights back and Factor 5 is alive (Turrican!!)

The only thing I want to know is that Factor 5 is back. Germany ftw!

How does PS4's performance correlate with what Eggebrecht said? He said it is as easy or even easier to develop games for the Switch.

Basically as easy/easier for games with low requirements, if it's a demanding game you're boned.

How does it not? Development of games that demand a lot of power will obviously be harder on a system with less power available to it.

The Switch being between the Wii-U and XBox One in performance in docked mode doesn't say everything since all games have to work on handheld too. Its also not just going up against the old consoles from 2013 but competing directly with the mid-cycle upgrades.

People can disagree but the price between the PS4 Pro and Nintendo Switch is actually not a lot and the switch is priced well above the base ps4 and xbox one models.

As a handheld its powerful enough but as a home console it won't deliver anywhere near the experience already available on the market. I am glad people are enjoying the device but the debates about the power are quite pointless its been very clear nintendo has no intention of joining the war to be "the most powerful console" on the market

I think I gave up being able to play RDR2 or Mass Effect or Cyberpunk on a Nintendo system long ago

Switch is still strong even in portable mode than Wii U, and Wii U was actually great home console for Nintendo games, and Switch can be only better.

Of Course that Nintendo has no intention of joining the war to be "the most powerful console" on the market, and what would be point when other two companies are already doing that, best Nintendo chances are to offer something different and new, not most "powerful hardware".

Having console thats stronger than Wii U or half of XB1 in form factor of Switch is very impressive.

Whoa, whoa. Factor 5? Turrican? This is big news!

I thought Factor 5 had closed shop a long time ago?

FACTOR 5 IS BACK ?!!!!

If they are as good as they were in the old days, Nintendo would be wise to partner with them.

Of course. That's why games like Mass Effect: Andromeda and Red Dead Redemption 2 aren't coming to the Switch. That's why Overwatch's dev team is doubtful they can even port an existing PS4 game to the Switch, because the Switch is even easier to develop for than the PS4. That makes perfect sense.
