I just can't shake the Pro console vibes, a very ecpensive one even before you consider the Express card. I'll have paid less for my PS5 and it's SSD expansion. Much like the PS5 pro, I can't justify it at all with that software line up and I am going to assume cross gen will last for quite a while with 129 million Switch users.

Not sure how you are getting "Pro" vibes. It's very clearly a solid generational leap. Basically looks like it's PS4 Pro power given that the games are graphically a huge leap over Switch and it can run them in 4k or 120fps. It's the complete opposite of Pro console vibes. Saying it has Pro console vibes is the absolute last thing I would have expected anyone to say lol.

At a glance its easy to see why someone would say this tbh. Generational leaps used to be undisputable and not measured in pixels counts or framerate... Going from Skyward Sword to Breadth of the Wild. Or Mario Galaxy to Mario Odyssey. It was on was on a complete different level  ... if someone showed you a screenshot of the new donkey kong it definitely looks cleaner than the average Switch game but visual ballpark is not far off. They've just gone real hard on scale whilst maintain a 1080p/60fps.

Not only that but from a 1st party perspective they only showed 2 games built for Switch 2, the rest were cross gen games with Switch quality assets. But as someone said this is the Series X/PS5 all over again. It's just a reflection of the current times and diminishing returns without breaking the bank
