Now how do you get equal performance from weaker chips?

And again, you really think Sony gamers will be happy with a lesser capable device against Nintendo?  No way in hell.   If it doesn't graphically blast a portable Nintendo product out of the water, they don't want it.

Because Nintendo dont use the full power of the switch ?

When its used as a handheld, its only 150 gflops.

The intire chip used when docked is 400 gflops.

Do you follow?

So sony could make a weaker smaller chip (not 400gflops, but only 150gflops), that performs the same as the switch, as a portable device.

(portable vs portable = same, but with a smaller cheaper chip)

 

Now remove all the many parts, multiple batteries, all those many rumble units for the HD rumble, the dock, ect ect ect.

You can probably shave 100-150$ off of the switch's price.

And give them a equal handheld, thats much cheaper.

Did you know most 3DS owners play their handheld at home? It's not so much the portability they're interested in, but the games (besides Japan). Being able to play the Switch on your TV with boosted graphics, framerate and resolution is a big advantage to Nintendo's console.
