I feel like you are fighting arguments nobody is making.  Nobody is saying it can't run current games.  It will, similar to Rog.  720p, low settings at 30 to 45 fps.  If people are happy with that for third party, all good here.  

Crushes the ps4 is likely an exaggeration, but not worth fighting.  Better than a ps4, sure.

The S2 will be between the ps4 and series s.....  like I said 12 months ago.

Day 1 here.  Shit like LM4, pikmin 5 and zelda are going to look great.  Huge jump over the current Switch. 

A ROG Ally can do better than that. 

It runs Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart (a game yourself have cited as a showcase example of a game well beyond a PS4) at Medium settings and at near 60 fps and at high settings at a still respectable 30-40 fps. If the ROG Ally had DLSS the image quality would look considerably better too (it would look more like 1080p-1440p native) than what is shown here, but this is what even just lower performing LPDDR5 can do:

Objectively Nintendo fans should be very happy with a RAM choice that is significantly higher bandwidth than what this $700 system has and they should also factor in their silicon is going to have the advantage of DLSS which this AMD device unfortunately can't utilize for even better looking image quality than this. 

The Wii/Wii U/DS/3DS era this most certainly is not. 

Rogallylife has the following settings at 30-45 fps, with performance a 3.5/5.0, when in turbo mode which kills your battery life:

To each their own, I would call that low settings and still low fps.  

Plus you have to note:

Rog Ally: 16 gb ram

S2: 12 gb ram

Rog Ally: 8.5 teraflops

S2: approx 4-5 teraflops
