Good reason to buy for people who don't own the Switch already but incredibly disappointing for current Switch owners that want more out of their games. The performance of some games, even Nintendo ones, are suboptimal. I was really hoping their next installment in the Switch family would address this issue of hardware limitations as it's only going to be exacerbated, especially with third parties, as time goes on. Also 64gb of internal storage for a gaming system in 2021 is frankly unacceptable.

That being said I don't think this is the last hardware revision or Switch model we're going to get. I believe this is the Switch ver of 3ds xl (and will eventually replace the original Switch) when the Switch ver of New 3ds is on the way. It's just taking longer than expected but I think there will be a hardware upgrade at the tail end of the Switch lifecycle maybe early 2023?
