The Steam deck is a leap forward in capability IMO.
A leap forward from the Switch, yes. I think they were saying the “Switch 2” will not be a leap forward in the general sense of what’s available.
With a good portion of its capability hamstrung by abstraction layers. That said, Switch 2 doesn't look to be a 4k device when docked.
I played Hogwarts Legacy on my Steam Deck at 4k upscaled from like 480p or something. I think it was upscaled to 1080p with FSR 2.0 then again to 4k with FSR 1.0. It was like watching a slideshow of impressionist paintings set in the English countryside.
With anything weaker than 3080 the game looked like a slideshow on every machine at launch. UE4 games tend to be seriously broken on PC the last few months.
Then again: Steamdeck is definitely not a 4K console.
