T239 8nm is not half assed upgrade. it's gonna be a big substantial upgrade  to what we have on the switch, not to mention SSD and DLSS the jump will be bigger then ps4 to ps5. console players will be playing on hardware that's been more powerful then switch 2 for 4 years by the time it comes out. So what makes you think that graphics are gonna be why people buy switch 2 it's makes no sense, it's gonna be the games and a t239 will look amazing in handheld but even then switch 2 won't be coming with oled screen if Nintendo really wanted to impress people that should have one at launch but they are nickle and dimers when it come to hardware.

T239 at 8nm has problems other than what it would be as an upgrade. 

It's a shit ton of graphics cores and a chip that's massive for no good reason. 

If Nintendo was interested in cost, they could have the same performance as that from 8SMs and still be clocked very low, 12SMs is getting into comedy levels, you're getting a chip that you're basically getting very little use out of. 

Again it's like spending $5 extra to buy jumbo popcorn when you know you're only going to eat maybe 10% of that, why do that when a regular pop corn is cheaper and then the cookie on top of this is "well we did that to save money", like OK, this makes sense on what level exactly? 

We don't don't what kinda of deal they got we will just have to wait and see.
