I mean ultimately the fact that you're getting anywhere near XBox Series S GPU performance in a portable this thin is above expectations.
The fact that it's on 8nm is absolutely bonkers, Nvidia and Nintendo did a great job getting good performance considering that. The graphics output at only 10 watts is outstanding. Puts a lot of those PC handhelds that need 15-20 watts to shame.
This is definitely a new hardware era for Nintendo, we are definitely out of the DS-Wii-Wii U-3DS era for sure.
Still think we will get a Pro model revision this cycle too, maybe one that allows the CPU cores to clock higher as there's a lot of performance there I think left untapped.
