*edit:
BTW the same is true for playstation and potentially xbox.
The gains from node shrinkage, has gone down alot, as we reach closer and closer to the impossibly small levels.
The PS6 and XSX2, won't be massively more powerfull than current gen consoles, without vastly increasing power draw levels (imo).

Indeed. The PS6 will 100% be just a PS5 Pro on UDNA and Zen 5c/6c that upscales from 1080p/60fps. I'd be too expensive otherwise.

If the Switch 3 is late 2033, it could use the N2 node and be reasonably comparable to the upcoming PS Portable despite a lower power envelope (= slightly better than the Series S in raster but with ML upscaling and frame generation). Or Nintendo could be even cheaper than 6-7-year-old nodes the next time around, who knows.

How these platforms (and the myriad "Xbox PC" consoles) will be faring in the markets is anyone's guess.
