Valve just recently announced they weren't planning a refresh "any time soon" but that doesn't mean they are ignorant about Nintendo apparently trying to close the gap with a new switch, that's supposed to be at least as powerful a PS5/XBS. Competition is good for the consumer.

Didn't it tuen out that it was literally just the same architecture? Doesn't really mean shit

[–] Lord_Wunderfrog@lemmy.fmhy.net 6 points 11 months ago

Exactly, same architecture means nothing if it only draws a fraction of the power, eg from a battery and not mains. Not only that, but size and cooling constraints mean with our current tech, it's impossible to have a small handheld as powerful as current gen consoles
