It only really needed the portable comparison. It's a horrifically underpowered home console and that's more a bonus than a competitive platform. Compare the Switch to even ps3 or 360 and most games look well below their standard. Many £20-30 android boxes could run much of the Switch library on a performance level not because they are as powerful as Switch but so many games on Switch don't push the hardware.

It's a fantastic portable though and goes well beyond Vita performance. In fact if there was an updated Vita model I doubt their would be much difference in performance.

I wonder if the instore display units are going to show the Switch as a portable or have it connected to a tv. I worry that connecting it to a tv is going to do massive damage to the Switch in sales potential. You see xbox one and ps4 delivering fantastic graphics and its not going to go well for Switch I think. I know Zelda is pretty but not much else is and Zelda itself is not technically impressive just beautiful because of the art style.
