The Switch is more like a 720P console than a 1080P one.

But they had to make *some* concessions in 2017 to make a portable gaming device and hit a price point.

Sure, they could have boosted the DRAM to 8GB, they could have went with Tegra X2 for 50% more performance.. But at what cost?

Selling at a loss like other manufacturer and recouping money with SW, which they sell more than the other 2 platform holder for higher price averaged on the life of each SW and even the system.

Considering how well Switch has sold as-is, it is doubtful that making it more powerful would have done much to improve sales.  It would have just cost Nintendo money for the subsidy.  It is already among the best selling consoles ever.
