How do the visuals on the Nintendo Switch compare to those of the Xbox 360 & PS3?

Well if we're agreed that the Switch has better graphics, why is this discussion still going?

i was talking about comparing exclusives to judge a power of a console, people will always have a different opinions, of whats technically more superior, and it''s impossible to prove someone wrong, as all takes is a resolution bump to 1080p, even for those games to give switch a hard time, for example DF thinks halo 4 stands up to any ps3 exclusive while many disagree, so all i'm saying it's best to judge consoles with multiplatofrm games to get a idea of there power.    

It's fine to use exclusives to compare what is superior.
But only if you have a firm understanding of how the visuals are presented and thus can make an intimate comparison of them, which only a few people on this forum are actually capable of doing.

Halo 4 on a technical standard can give allot of Playstation 3 exclusives a run for it's money, but I also understand where they made cutbacks to get there.

yea switch is clearly more superior. i consider wiiu/ps3/360 to be even with 360 being the best overall hardware, ports prove this, but as you can see in it's first year switch is running some of those games at 1080p with better graphics which those consoles can only dream of doing, yea of course switch is a nice leap, around 3x overall.

The WiiU certainly has the edge over the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360, the extra ram and GPU capabilities reinforce that. Sadly it wasn't on the market long enough to see those extra capabilities fully realized.

The Xbox 360 is certainly the better rounded hardware, considering it did release in 2005, years before the Wii U.
Microsoft simply made the right hardware choices at the right time with that console... And that paid off, same reason the Playstation 4 is dominating this generation right now.
