Pokemon Legends Z-A's visuals aren't "great" say former Nintendo marketing leads, but hope Switch 2 could allow Game Freak to "go back to the drawing board" (www.gamesradar.com)

I will never understand Nintendo.

They make a console that is underpowered but is still marketable because of its uniqueness, then they make first party games that require better performance than the console can deliver.

Pokémon is not a first party game, it's developed by Game Freaks. And the Switch isn't underpowered for this kind of games, there are lots of better looking games on it, such as Breath of the Wild, which is a launch title. Game Freaks is a terrible studio who can't make a game run smoothly even with GameCube graphics.
