Effectively the difference between xbox one and scorpio is the difference in performance between Switch portable mode and Switch docked. It's just a visual boost but runs the same games. So I don't understand the EA statement as they will still be programming the same games for xbox one which is the base platform that restricts the maximum performance of Scorpio. The Switch is only a 150/200 gflops portable with 16,000 mips of cpu performance and every game has to work with that all we see with Switch docked is a resolution boost and a more stable frame rate.

Scorpio enhanced versions of xbox one games may have some higher quality textures which isn't something the Switch can do because of the Switching feature but thats really it.I suspect most games will have no enhanced Scorpio assets though and it will be exactly the same situation as Switch.

It's like the only thing Microsoft have learned from Switch is having 2 performance levels.
