I'm saying the Switch 2 does not need power, because nothing will be pushing graphics so hard anymore.

the switch 2 IMO needs a power upgrade for sure, my switch 1 struggled to actually play higher ended games, and the actual graphic quality on those games wern't bad but not the great either.

Nintendon't Rant

That being said, I decided recently that Nintendon't is a company that doesn't need my money, between the actively hostile acts to its fan generated content with the shut down of third party non-profit games, it's prosecution of Gary Bowser(which was the extent of charging a sales associate for the entire companies fraud) and it's downright abusive treatment of the right to repair and archival/emulation communities. They are basically the Apple of the game development world. I won't spend money on their stuff anymore.

Current switch needs to stream current and last gen games, they will still need power.

Switch 2 is likely to be around the power level of a PS4, which is good enough for this hypothetical.
