Games right now are mostly playable only on the mid gen refresh consoles

BF1 runs at 40fps on OG Xbox One and the COD BO4 beta ran at 45 fps. It's obvious that base consoles are way out of their depth halfway into this gen. I guarantee that BF5 and BO4 will run at max 50fps on base consoles. These games are made for the X.

Lmao, it wouldn't even run on the Switch. It's too weak a hardware for trying to run any game post-2018. 

Doom Eternal.

Doom 2016 runs at 25fps and falls down to 476p, it's unplayable. Wolfenstein 2 goes down to 360p. It blows my mind how people think the Switch can run any game post 2018 and expect it to be playable. It'll run horribly and won't be fun at all to play.

They had to gimp the audio too for the game to be playable. You'd have to downgrade so many important things for a multiplayer shooter. How can Switch run an actual multiplayer shooter with lots of particle effects and projectile physics when it can't even run a 2016 game.

The Switch is weak, get over it. It's mostly a console to play platformers and turn-based RPGs i.e. not graphically demanding games. Plus there's no point in putting a COD in Switch, not only would it run horribly but also the demographic is totally different. Nintendudes aren't into mainstream shooters, they never have been.

BO4 didn't run well on the OG Xbox One either. It's why I bought the X almost immediately. Games right now are mostly playable only on the mid gen refresh consoles and the Switch is far and away weaker than those consoles.

CoD from PS3/360 were ported to Wii, and we talking about much bigger difrence in any case betwine Wii and PS3/360 compared to Switch and XB1/PS4. You saying it cant run 2016. game and yet 2019. game is coming to Switch (Doom Eternal), also Doom from 2016. if first big 3rd party AAA Switch port so its not ceiling of Switch capabilities.

Switch dont has typical Nintendo demographic, wide variety of different types of games are selling good on Switch.

Every game could be ported on Switch, only question is what cut backs would be, dont forget that CoD games on XB1 runs at 60FPS, on Switch they could run at 30 FPS like Doom and Wolfenstein for instance.

Doom 2016 runs at 25fps and falls down to 476p, it's unplayable. Wolfenstein 2 goes down to 360p. It blows my mind how people think the Switch can run any game post 2018 and expect it to be playable. It'll run horribly and won't be fun at all to play. These cutbacks are too high, hell they gimped the audio for Doom for it to run on Switch. Games like these aren't meant to be played on Switch, it's horrible and is unplayable. It's like saying RDR 2 can run on my phone, maybe it can but would I want to play such a horrible representation of a game on hardware that can barely handle it? 

Doom and Wolfenstein didn't sell well on the Switch, that's just false. Definitely not the demographic and plus if these games run so horribly on the Switch, it wouldn't attract any part of the Switch consumer base. They haven't expressed enough interest for it and with how bad games run on the Switch I don't think they ever will.
