Why do you have such a vested interest that the Switch 2 not have any next gen games?
The Switch itself was not that far below an XBox One as proof it can run several of the biggest XB1/PS4 games can't it? Like Witcher 3 does exist. DOOM does exist. DOOM Eternal does exist. Wolfenstein does exist. Alien Isolation does exist. Fortnite exists. Overwatch exists. Mortal Kombat X exists. FIFA/FC with Frostbite Engine now exists. These aren't fringe hypotheticals, these are some of the biggest PS4 games of that generation, they run on the Switch. Sure the image quality is not the greatest, but they are essentially the same game otherwise.
Of course you are going to have to make some sacrifices, but DLSS IS a fairly significant difference, and bullshit for people trying to weasel their way into saying it makes no difference. Bullshit when you have video proof of games look perfectly playable running at 1/9th of the resolution.
Switch 2 IMO has to be a full generation leap over the Switch 1, the only times Nintendo has not done a full generation leap are the two times it had an absolute industry revolutionizing hardware aspect to lean on (the Wiimote and the hybrid concept) ... now unless they're pulling like photo real, cheap, lightweight VR out of their asshole I don't think they have that for Switch 2. It's going to have to be a more standard hardware transition, which is fine, Nintendo has done that before even with handhelds but they've always been otherwise a full generation leap in hardware capability over their predacessor. (GB-GBA-DS-3DS-Switch, yup).
They are going to need the full generation upgrade to excite people for the Zelda game that comes after Tears of the Kingdom, for the Mario game that comes after Odyssey. These games have set the bar high, you need the generational leap in hardware to really top those games.
Some lame ass 3x improvement in power isn't going to cut it and wow people. If that's what they're doing then good fucking luck with that.
I'm tired of the "but dur hur Nintendo doesn't do this or that" ... you don't know what Furukawa's Nintendo does. Iwata's Nintendo was totally different from Yamauchi's in a lot of way. Why are we assuming Furukawa is going to be exactly the same as Iwata? Iwata would've cut the price of the Switch hardware probably twice by now and likely passed on releasing an OLED model for $350.

I've owned every Nintendo home console ever made. Nintendo is my favorite and I play the switch more than the ps5. I'm just realistic about what mobile hardware will actually do.
At the end of the day I've explained how you are wrong. So did ZeldaRing. And now Pemalite has as well.
Your call on if you are going to continue the fool show.
DLSS is a tool. It doesn't make weak hardware compete with high end. Performance is a balance of all hardware. Ps5 has upscaling tools available. Switch 2 isn't running with the series s, much less series x and ps5.
End of story.

You don't know shit, you're speculating like everyone else, so kindly get off your high horse.
DLSS does make significant performance gains, everyone has access to fucking Youtube, you understand that right? We can all access videos that show what DLSS does on top of many of us can use DLSS for ourselves, we can even see what DLSS looks like running from native resolution as low as 240p. It's not a secret for you to lord over people, everyone can see for themselves.
You have no sources in the industry either as far as I can tell, CVG does have sources and has a reliable history of reporting. This is what they're reporting. Matrix Awakens Demo on the Switch 2 using DLSS. Deal with it.
