I know what 900p and 4K look like, I have a PS5 as well as a Switch. Not even sure if my TV supports 120fps to be honest.

I'm an unusual person, how graphics work is one of my interests and I'm more fascinated seeing what can be squeezed out of my venerable old Switch before I retire it than just seeing a somewhat basic port to hardware that can do so much more.

I've been awaiting it since 2017 so getting it on the console I was promised it for way back then just feels "right". From a sentimental perspective, I also wanna send off my Switch on a positive note, and I can't think of a better swan song.

While I don't share your sentiment I can understand it.  I am curious if you played Breath of the Wild and if you played the WiiU version.  For me I was planning on being "wait and see" on the Switch after the WiiU.  I really liked the WiiU but .... 

I wanted the best possible experience with BotW.  My "wait and see" went right out of the window and within 5 minutes of seeing the BotW reveal I had a switch pre-ordered.

I stuck with the WiiU version of Breath of the Wild myself. The Switch version wasn't enough of an improvement so I did wait and see with that system.

Mario Kart 8 I'd already played the living hell out of on WiiU so MK8D didn't move me. Splatoon interested me but I never got around to it. I love Xenoblade but the trailers for Xenoblade 2 didn't totally sell me...

Ultimately though it still didn't even take a year because Mario Odyssey was another instant classic and the bundle made it a no-brainer.

In comparison, the leap from Switch to Switch 2 is night and day. Especially if you're playing on a 4k,120hz,HDR,VRR capable display. If Metroid Prime 4 is a game you've been waiting for, I don't see how you could not want all those features.
