Pemalite already covered this, but FLOPS are not an accurate measuring stick of performance between chips of different architectures released ten years apart. That's like saying a tugboat has more horsepower than a formula 1 car, therefore the tugboat is faster.

Yes ofc I know Flops isn't everything. But they are very important, like Switch and the high end phones can do more advanced graphical effects, but it doesn't translate to a better looking game overall as game developers can design around the flaws of older gpu architectures and make them look better or similiar. We can go full mumbo-jumbo talk about bad xbox 360 flops, but result speaks louder.

Show me a switch mobile or smartphone game that looks better than Halo 4, you can't as it doesn't exist.

Switch games like FAST RMX and Outlast II comfortably surpass Halo 4 or any game on 360 graphically. Halo 4 may be extremely impressive for its ancient hardware but it also has its drawbacks such as some pretty low res assets.

Any tricks used to make games on last gen systems look better can equally be applied on Switch, except the visual ceiling will be higher on the Switch due to superior specs.
