I think the resolution crap will end with 4k.... it should be a long time until we go higher.
Much rather they spent additional resources on other graphical aspects than just the resolutions.

Maybe at some point in the far far future, a mobile phone can do that stuff.
However I have my doubts.

Why? Physics.
There are laws of physics that could make it impossible to advance that far ahead.
We re reaching the end of how far down we can shrink these chips (ei. 5nm might be as small as we can make things)

Anyways thats a far ways off, and even then, there will be advantages to BIGGER systems, than smaller ones.
Does this mean a Switch 2? is a bad way to go? not at all.

I just dont think thats the route PS5 or XB2 take, or the future of consoles (other than nintendo).

I fear that won't be the case, we already have 8k, who know what will be next after 8k..

Yeah, I think the Switch is pretty much the future of gaming. No one ever thought smartphones would overtake dedicated cameras. No one ever thought the house phone would disappear. No one ever thought people would want to watch movies and tv shows on the go, yet look what happened.

Graphics and power will always be number 1, right? Gamers will always want power first and that will never change! There's no way hardcore gamers will sacrifice power for portability, right? Just watch.

We already have before planty cases where graphics and power are not most important, latest ones are Wii and 3DS, actually this is only generation where power and graphics are important but that just because PS4 offers better power and graphics over XB1 for same price, while in all other things they are identical. Power and graphics are not so important if you have different product that gives you different possibilities and experience.
