Nintendo Switch: 10 Crucial Pros & Cons You Must Consider

8. Con: Weakest Hardware Of The Three

There's no getting around it, the Switch is by far the weakest system in terms of pure processing power by comparison to the PS4 and Xbox One - especially the PS4 Pro and Scorpio.

It's testament to just how much Nintendo prioritise style over substance that the Switch is still being received well, but that creates a marketing message directly opposed to how the average consumer thinks of what 'a brand new console' will bring.

Such an approach certainly worked for the Wii and all its fancy all-age gimmicks, and I'm all for developers backing away from worrying about 4K resolutions and pointless background detail, but if the Switch literally isn't capable of playing some of the best franchises or multiplayer games in recent history, that's only going to weaken it in the long run.
