    I’m probably not the target demo for Nintendo, but I won’t lie…the Switch feels very long in the tooth at this point.

    Great concept, great delivery, but it’s showing its age and it’s time for an upgrade at the very least.

      Most definitely. Zelda TotK is the late-in-lifetime masterpiece — we are ready for the next generation.

      One problem Nintendo faces here is that last time they had Nvidia Tegra, a chip that didn’t really find any other use at scale so Nintendo could source it for pennies. AMD owns the console grade SoC market, and won’t be selling Ryzen 8000 series for cheap — maybe Nintendo could again source something from the previous generation to keep the BOM down?

      I’ve basically been holding onto the hope I’ll be able to play Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity on co-op without a drastic drop in resolution and framerate once this new console comes out. Because that was not a level of performance appropriate for an exclusive game.
