(Rumor) Nintendo discarded "Switch Pro"

No. It's objectively bad. - You just have low standards, unless you are asserting that Digital Foundry are telling lies?
I suggest you watch the digital foundry video that breaks down all the performance and technical issues.
Here it is again:


As for your car analogy... It's incorrect.
With the Switch I am not suggesting it needs to be identical to all other cars on the market like the Series X and Playstation 5, heck even older cars like the Xbox One and Playstation 4.. And that it's inability to go to 0 to 60 in 4 seconds somehow makes it "bad".

I have no issue with the Switch's current performance, provided games run perfectly fine on them.

It would be more like having a little Toyota Camry, 4 cylinder. - But the issue is, when you reach legal highway speeds, regardless of how long it takes you to get there, the steering starts to shake and wobble and the vehicle starts to feel "unsafe" at it's "rated" speed... And that is where a newer model can resolve those issues.

We are consumers, we are handing cash over for these products, we should demand and expect the best possible product, not give excuses... You are only damaging the consumers position. - And for what?

My kids love the game and don't have a problem with pokemon.  Just because you find it to be a problem doesn't mean others do.  You seemingly can't figure out the difference between opinion and fact.  

I'm not giving excuses but speaking reality.  The funny thing is this all started when I said Nintendo doesn't need to do anything because clearly consumers don't care....  and here you are saying consumers dictate the market....  thank for saying what I said pages ago.  It isn't a need because consumers have decided it isn't.  

The only time a company needs to do anything is when consumers make them do as such.  Look at sales, consumers are not making the need.  Hence you have a want....  

Your kids are anecdotal, they aren't everyone.
Many have complained, documented and recognized the issues Pokemon Scarlet and Violet have showcased... The fact you are happy to excuse them because "sales are good" is disingenuous to that end.

Even Nintendo itself has recognized it is full of issues... And I quote:
"We are aware that players may encounter issues that affect the games’ performance. Our goal is always to give players a positive experience with our games, and we apologize for the inconvenience. We take the feedback from players seriously and are working on improvements to the games."

So if Nintendo recognizes it, why can't you?

Digital Foundry have empirically demonstrated the issues, as noted in the video I posted prior.
Many gaming circles, even Pro-Nintendo sites have also documented the issues like:

Besides, Cyberpunk sold 20+ million copies. That game was also a technical clusterfuck, just like Pokemon Scarlet/Violet. - But by your logic the game would be a perfect AAA title because it sold 20 million copies?

In the end, most of Cyberpunk's issues were pretty minimal once you played it on more powerful hardware... Ironically, the same situation Pokemon Scarlet/Violet finds itself in, where it's a far better experience on an overclocked Switch or emulated on PC.

Those are the real facts.
