There is one problem though it seems Switch can run 1080p/60 PS4 games in 720p/30. But how on earth is the Switch going to run 85% of PS4 games which run at 1080p/30fps and sometimes below. Those games can be ported I guess but it will be a pain in the arse. In the end SSB 4 could run on 3ds and Wii U.

The 60 to 30fps could be a CPU bottleneck that could be less dramatic for 30fps games, after all we are getting a decent Skyrim on the Switch.

According to Digital Foundrys slightly improvised testing is indeed a cpu bottleneck. The gpu side of things seems to be fine, but the fact that one CPU core is reserved for the system+the fact tha it's a mobile ARM cpu are limiting performance.

The Switch has four more, albeit much weaker cpu cores doesn't it? I wonder why they don't relegate the system to those and free up the fourth A57 core instead.
