I feel like for the average joe 60fps is good enough.

120fps is nice, but it requires a lot of optimization to get anything advanced to run that high on a console, so while I can see some devs shooting for it (heck, even on Switch 2 some games do) I don't see it becoming the new baseline even on Helix/PS6.

Definitely not the new baseline, but as a flex for Project Helix. Just as PS5 Pro can run quality mode at 60fps. You pay a premium price to run games better, not to run better games. 

So it all depends on what it's worth to the consumer to play at 120fps (and if they already have a TV capable of that and/or willing to buy one). Otherwise the GabeCube is like the Series S, good enough to run games on from the couch. RT and 120 fps are nice to haves rather than game changers. And the existence of Switch 2 will make sure games will continue to be optimized to run well on lower end hardware.
