The problem Nintendo has is the Wii U failure caused them to release the Switch early.  They are so far behind in power atm (especially once next gen comes out) they have to somehow right the wave of the Switch longer than normally they would and hope mobile tech catches up to at least PS4 (ideally pro) level in handheld mode somehow within 10W of power usage.

If they release Switch 2 early I cannot see it being adopted much. They need to somehow bridge the gap or this gap will just continue to widen each generation. Then at that point there will be no multiplatform games. May as well be all Nintendo exclusives.

When the Playstation 5 comes out at 9,2 Tflops, theres probably gonna be like a 25 times power differnce, between it and the base Switch model.

25 : 1  (likely higher, in actual performance differnce delta)

Thats a ratio that means, the Switch likely wont get any multplat game, thats made to run on a PS5 (or XBSX).

Waiting to move on, isnt going fix anything.
Ideally Nintendo doesnt want Sony or Microsoft consoles to be more than 10 times its power, if it wants to keep multiplats imo.

Which means the ideal time to launch a Switch 2, is 2021-2022.

What nvidia chips in 2021-2022 will bring the Switch into line that will allow for PS5/XBSX ports?

I just can't see it happening, unless they drop the switch concept and go hardcore console.
