At this point, we are still unclear on just how powerful the Nintendo Switch really will be - recent rumors indicate it will be less powerful than the PS4, and about as powerful as the Xbox One - but they're just that, rumors, and rumors about this system is all over the place.
Supergiant Games' Studio Director, Amir Rao, has said that he's worried about some unbalanced boons in-game, with nerfs coming soon.
Super Mario 64 and Diddy Kong Racing are just the beginning.
TheGamer Writes "I'm not sure if that would've been the coolest thing ever or the most terrifying."
I like what I've seen of it thus far, and Bethesda's confirmed statement about not deving for it if it wasn't at least as powerful as the XB1, on top of FROM Software having Dark Souls 3 running, in their own words, at a level they are happy with, give me some measure of confidence that the system isn't terribly underpowered like the Wii U was.
By the way, for those who are unaware; Bethesda's statement, essentially, was that they would consider development for the NX if it were at least as powerful as the XB1.

And since they're on the dev list for Switch now, obviously their consideration transformed into a yes, which HAS to mean it met that minimum requirement of matching the XB1, at the very least.
Yes, it does. It matters. Anything that is weaker than the competition, matters. Now go back to your little bubble.
I say it do matter, the fact that the pro is out and then the Scorpio.. Yeah I'd say 3rd party support will be a problem.. They have to sell at the ps4 pace when it releases to get that third-party support.. Are els the big games will stay away.. Hell they still might stay away.. opinion to the rumors
I believe it does matter. Well, to an extent.
Nintendo really dropped the ball with the Wii U "in my opinion" I feel like they thought they could piggyback off of the success of the original Wii. However, I genuinely hope everyone who played their Wii U's really enjoyed it, and had tons of fun playing it with family & friends.
Having said that, Nintendo really needs to deliver on the power side of things this time around, to compete with PS4 & Xbox One, and have multiple platform games come to their console as well "in my opinion"
While it's great they have Mario, Zelda, Donkey Kong, and whatever other "Exclusive" games they have under the Nintendo brand, they still need support from 3rd party developers, to go even further. and allow their games library to grow. They'll really need to bring a Powerful console that's at least on Par with PS4 & Xbox One "in my opinion"
You can only go so far with Mario, Zelda- Donkey Kong ect... Spice things up a bit. We shall see what happens!
As it didn't matter with the Wii U being released underpowered against what competition had for years before it?
