DLSS is the right move for Nintendo and will be great.  It should put the switch in the Xbox one and ps4 area....  not ps5.

uh but that's not the case. Switch 2 should be in the Xb1/PS4 area WITHOUT DLSS. There's no reason to think Switch 2 won't have specs similar to those systems, just as Switch is MORE powerful than 360/PS3. Gap of about 10-11 years for each from the previous console to the Nintendo system.

DLSS is what can likely take Switch 2 from Xb1/PS4 level to Ps4 Pro level. So if its outputting games at PS4 Pro level, but ain't bothering about 4k/60fps like the current consoles, that makes it a hell of a lot easier for Switch 2 to handle current console games.

Fact is that DLSS should make the gap between Switch 2 and PS5/XBSeries significantly smaller than the gap between Switch and PS4/XB1.

You keep tripping over yourself.  You claim switch 2 will be ps4 pro but will run FFVII like a ps5.  The ps5 version is 60 fps, improved lighting and far better fog, far better textures, etc.  Jesus man, you are not consistent with your position.  

You want to argue DLSS will get the switch around ps4 pro levels, cool.  I'm not fighting that.  But it sounds like you are finally conceding it won't be comparable to the ps5.  Which is good, because it isn't.  The ps5 jump from 30 fps to 60 fps (performance mode) by itself is a huge jump in console games.

I also think it is funny that DF is being leveraged as THE authority on tech, but yet we are viewing FF7 on the ps5 as being mostly the same as ps4 DESPITE DF praising the ps5 version for all the significant upgrades.  So which is it?  Is DF an authority or not?
