Well, the Switch 2 went from "better than a Series S" in the Street Fighter 6 thread to "it will struggle to run Series S games at 30fp while in portable"

No, the Switch 2 went from "Its not going to be as capable as a PS4" to "it will struggle to run Series S games at 30fp while in portable. Still PS4 handheld and PS4 Pro docked was the power range i expected, but watching some people moving the goalposts is really fun.Well, the Switch 2 went from "better than a Series S" in the Street Fighter 6 thread to "it will struggle to run Series S games at 30fp while in portable"

Oh please... That game is not demanding at all, even runs really well without much tinkering on a steam deck.....

looks the same but running at quarter res essentially.
I assume it's gonna be around 900p docked, 720p handheld mode or something like that... maybe it could offer a 1440p 30fps mode or something... or a 1080p 40fps mode docked and 800~900p 40fps mode in handheld mode

Because there's literally no difference between base PS5 and PS5 pro.

it's 1800p on base and 2160p on Pro... so there is a difference... but one you'd probably not notice in a youtube video lol
Xbox Series S = 1080p
Xbox Series X = 1800p
PlayStation 5 = 1800p
PlayStation 5 Pro = 2160p
the Series S seems a bit underutilised I feel... could be higher, but they probably didn't want to do a lot of QA on that version, just slapped a save and even 1080p resolution on it, and called it a day.

I remember the three slightly sharper leaves in a still image of Spiderman 2 at PS5 pros presentation, but it doesn't make much of a difference to prove the point of the video in the OP, which is, (shocking secret!): PS5 version looks and runs better.

Alright my dudes, these comparisons are starting to get a bit silly. Might as well start comparing smartphone pictures with smart TVs.

That's the thing, it's probably gonna be the same for all games considering FF7R and Cyberpunk look pretty similar to PS5 but at lower resolution.
I remember back in the day when I only had a Ryzen 2200g with an integrated Vega 8 GPU I could easily put any game with many settings on medium or even low sometimes and it would look almost exactly the same than high, it's not like I'm the 2000s when games had very distinct lol between configurations, some even removing real time lighting like Half-Life 2, so even if Switch 2 ends up doing the same but at lower resolution, you'll get a very, very similar if not almost identical picture but at lower resolution.
Not even close the same situation than Switch 1 when the diminishing return didn't hit Xbox and PS much yet.

PC for Xbox, Steam, Playstation, Epic, GOG games.
Switch 2 for Nintendo games.
This is the way.
But I could see myself buy a couple third party Switch 2 games if they run better than on my Steam Deck. I hope DF starts doing Deck vs Switch 2 videos. And I hope CDPR starts a trend with their save sync they have in Cyberpunk. If I can just go back and forth between Steam and Switch 2 I'll buy far more Switch 2 games. I hate starting over in long games.

This is the first setting I disable in games as well (if I can). MH Wilds thankfully lets you toggle this on the PS5 as well.Honestly, Its often one of the first settings I disable on PC, depth of field. I very very rarely toggle it on if they allow me to disable. And screenshots like these should not even have the backgrounds on switch 2 look better than PS5 pro, but imo they do, because excessive DOF is a plague. Why you buy a 4K TV and a Pro console to hide the details?
Left is PS5 pro and right Switch 2. Would you believe it in a blind test? No. DOF fucks the image quality so much.
Nothing to do with power, its just an annoying as fuck effect imo. Overused.

If your plan is to compare Switch 2 to Ps5pro you're going to have a bad time 
just enjoy the Nintendo exclusives finally with acceptable graphics since like 2012 and call it day

Nah it's not "the way".
Based on what Nintendo have shown so far I don't have a major incentive to change anything about my current setup which is PC/Deck/Pro.

Yo this is super impressive, one of these devices is plugged into your power outlet and the other is running on 15watt battery.

So as of right now you're skipping Nintendo's games?
Impossible for me, Switch 2 is a must. True exclusives and going by off-screen footage it is quite possible that some games run and look better on Switch 2 than Steam Deck. Might swap my bedside companion in some cases. I'm super excited for the launch.
Not sure my PS5 Pro has been powered on this year though, so right now I don't bed it. Could obviously change fast if they release some exciting exclusives, but knowing games will come to PC means I'm less likely to go with the console version, just ends up as an annoying double dip.

Yup. PC/Nintendo is all I need
Sony and Microsoft are 3rd parties now
Missing out on Metroid prime 4 and Nintendo games is not even something I can imagine as a gamer

Yes brand new 8mm chip able to out perform ps5 at 10w am i right.
Like I said it is what it is. Pc handhelds already outperform switch 2. Its gonna be fine for Nintendo games but I can't help but imagine if Nintendo put out a 15-20 teraflop home console. Would be awesome.

You are grasping straws man. All points you mentioned are still valid , you just scratched them in your head .. lol
The fact that this game is running 30fps tells you all you need about Switch 2 hardware. Look at DF analysis, no a single frame drop from 60fps in all versions, they even increased res beyond 4K/120fps on PC and not a single fps drop.
And you create this thread cheering a 30fps docked at a fraction of the resolutions mentioned? Lol
Have some standards man and enjoy your new shiny outdated toy.
Not releasing on PS4 doesn't automatically means can't be running there, you know .. PS4 is 13 years ago, people moved on.

For now, yes.
I'll get a switch 2 when they decide to do what they should have done in the first place and launch an oled model.
Having gone from the original deck LCD to then the OLED model, I'm not making that same mistake again.

I've been saying this since spec rumors, we'll be splitting hairs over version differences while most normal people will just see the same game running competently and not care. When I say competently I mean the average joe would have to dig and try to figure out what the difference is instead of just looking at it like Hogwarts.
For how well NS1 did with that handicap this is gonna be a bloodbath.

Bit of a self-own there.ahahaha
‘Nintendo is losing their identity’: Shuhei Yoshida says Switch 2’s focus on power is what other companies would do | VGC
The former SIE president feels Switch 2 is uncharacteristic of a company that thrives on innovation…www.videogameschronicle.com
You might not have understood what Yoshida meant, but he basically said a very successfull featherweight boxer should rely on his strength (speed, cardio, gameplay, a braindead fanbase) to win and not try to act like a heavyweight because he somehow believed in his own hype.
