Powerful enough for what? AAA third party support? It's the Nintendo console with the best third party support since the SNES and it's doing more than fine without the lastest AAA games.

It's nearly 8 years old, there's no point defending it as it's on it's way out and this is confirmed by Nintendo. It was great back in 2017 but it's obsolete now. A Tegra X1 is not enough for success anymore and it's not hard to see that. If you think it's no problem missing out on games like COD BO6, dragon age veilguard, dragons dogma, D4 vessel of hatred, visions of mana then I don't know what to say. In terms of software Switch has had a bad year and that latest Zelda didn't do that well in sales. 

The Switch is selling fine for its age so yes, a Tegra X1 is still enough for success.

The games you cited would never come to the Switch even when it launched. It always had terrible AAA support, many games skipped it... but that and being underpowered didn't matter and it sold 140m+, so to 140 million people having good AAA third party support is not important I guess.

I do agree it's been a shitty year compared to the past ones for the Switch but maybe that's because its being replaced next year, so Nintendo is focused on the successor? I really don't understand what this has to do with anything I've said but sure I agree.

In any case, I still think the Switch/PS5/Series are direct competitors, and you haven't really told why they wouldn't be. They're both competing for my money (and for the money of millions) like I said.
