I am not sure where you are getting your data from.  I did a search on the specs of the various consoles and this is what I came up with.  Now anyone viewing this post can decide if the Switch's capabilities are closer to PS3/Xbox360 or PS4/XBox1.

	PS3	XBox360	Wii U	Switch	XBox1	PS4
TeraFLOPS	.230	.240	.352	1	1.31	1.843
% increase over PS3	0%	4%	53%	335%	470%	701%
RAM in GB	.512	.512	2	4	8	8
% increase over PS3	0%	0%	291%	681%	1463%	1463%

Your comparing FP 16 (Switch Wii U) Gflops to Fp 32 Gflops (PS4, Xbox One, Ps3, Xbox 360).

 

Also 1 Tflops in Fp16 is achieved by the Tegra X1 on 1 GHZ, the Switchs Tegra X1 runs ~760 MHZ docked and ~350MHZ undocked.

 

I do know its pretty hard to understand for people that dont know much about that stuff.

Here are some sources:

https://www.reddit.com/r/NintendoSwitch/comments/5urua3/explanation_of_flops_and_fp32_and_fp16/

The main problem I have with these sources is that they were written before the Switch was even released.  Have you considered that they might be wrong and the more modern sources are correct?
