Comparing the performance of a tablet-sized portable, with screen, meant to also be able to run on a battery, to a desketop-sized, always plugged console - wich released later - on the basis of the first one being "9th gen" and the second being "8th" is beyond pointless. Videogame "Generation" is a technological non-factor on the face of size, tdp and release date.
The relevance when it comes to generations is the fact that both are bein sold at abouth the same time. In that sense, both seem pretty good for what they are and offer different advantages, trading of portability and graphical fidelity. |
So one more on the crowd of apologize shortcoming of Switch on it being a portable... but when talking about sales it will be compared as console?

The $500 graphics are better than the $300 graphics. Are they 65% better? When you take your XBX in your Minivan to play on the go, are the graphics good on the ceiling screen? How good are the graphics when you play your XBX at the bus stop? At work? Waiting at the DMV? On a home 1080P TV? |
So should we also compare how expensive is your Switch game against a cellphone? How much does the battery holds against DS or a cellphone? Oww I forgot, on what Switch underperform as portable, then "but it can play console games and connect to TV".

Agree, a small mobile chip should be at least on par with a true 4k proper home console. Xbox 1 X can be played on the go too, just bring the system with a TV as well as hope for two charge sockets so really no excuse for Switch

So one more for the "it's a portable" when shortcomings are presented...

What the hell are you going on about?
Nobody is "apologizing" for "shortcomings", they are pointing out that they are completely different devices in terms of specs, features, size, price, etc. so a sizable gap in visuals/performance is expected.
Switch is significantly cheaper than high end phones and has just as good of battery life when playing demanding games so i dont think bringing them up supports your argument.
