Honestly it might get close at least.
Switch hardware was dated when it launched.
So for the same price today, its possible to make a many times more powerful handheld, than the Switch is.
Then its rumored to also be backwards compatible with switch 1 cartridges.
There still some old timers around (myself included) that likes that aspect.
Get something physical, own it, be able to play it, without first having to download half a game or many patches.
Its just put it in, and play.
This is also a huge appeal for parents, with kids.
They just want it to work, hassle free.
Xbox and PlayStation are not like that anymore.
If they also manage to have a option to upscale older Switch 1 games.... I could see that being huge (a lot do run in lower resolutions).
Again another big one for parents, or collectors.
So yes, unless Nintendo screws up, there's no reason it should be near equal at least.
