Both Wii U and Switch were outdated when they released. The fact that Switch 2 can be considered on point or better is why it's been such a nice surprise.

I mean, the Tegra X1 was a 2015 chipset, and a console using tech from a year or two prior is pretty normal.

The Gamecube's chipset was finalized in 1999 for a 2001 release, the N64 in 1995 for a 1996 release. 

About the last time any console was cutting edge was the Xbox 360 nearly 20 years ago. 

Technically, both PS5 and XBX were "cutting edge" GPU wise, at least when it comes to AMD GPUs, given that RDNA2 PC GPUs launched exact same month as those consoles.

But yeah, Xenos GPU in 360 was, tech-wise, way ahead of everything at the moment it launched, and even for a year afterward till nVidia 8800 came along.
