All I'm saying is that if I'm a non-biased gamer (which I am), and trying to decide which console is going to provide me the best tech for the money, it's certainly not going to be the Switch 2. Ever since Wii, Nintendo has released hardware that either can't run that gen's most advanced software, or runs it worse. So why would I bother with Nintendo? There most certainly won't be GTA 6 on that system. And if there is, it definitely won't be the definitive version. And that goes for anything else that is graphically intense. 

If CDPR can run CP2077 on a 7 week effort, RS for sure can run GTA6 on S2 and make it pretty comparable to the other consoles.

The 7 week build proved to be a misunderstanding. The build that they were showing was 7 weeks old, but has been in development for much longer. 

It's all laid out in Digital Foundry's latest video & hands on with CP2077. 

Their takeaway of the the build currently being shown is that it's in the same ballpark as the PS4 version, so I don't think we should expect any miracles here...

I think that Nintendo have picked decent hardware, I just wish that they'd pushed the boat out a bit & gone with a smaller process so that the clocks could be higher. I feel like MS or Sony would have made a move like that, but I guess it could have been worse.
