It's not a generation behind the PS4, if it was a generation behind it wouldn't be able to run PS4 games like DOOM, DOOM Eternal, Dragon Quest XI, Witcher 3, Nier, Diablo III, Persona 5, NBA 2K, FC Soccer, and a whole host of other games. 

If you double the horsepower of a Switch it would be able to comfortably run basically any PS4 game without much fuss. If you double a DS or something ... do you get a machine that can run like PS3 games? Not even fucking close. 

Switch is its own thing to the hardware industry, you don't seem to be able to wrap your mind around it and need to classify it with products like previous handhelds, which it doesn't really belong to. 

Lol you named a few butchered ports, let Me see switch run red dead 2, resident evil 4, last of us 2, CoD most of the big third party didn't come cause switch would end up melting, those games look worse then 360 games on Switch come on now.

The gap is not that large considering the Switch has to run on battery. And sure several of those games probably could be ported, it's mainly the image quality that suffers with no DLSS quality image upscaling solution. 

If Nintendo actually made a Switch Pro that was double the launch model Switch it would run most PS4 games with no fuss, that's completely a different ball park than systems like the Wii and DS that weren't even close to the other consoles of the time.
