This has been their schtick since Game and Watch.
Comment on Russia admits its homegrown consoles can't match the PS5 or Xbox Series
cm0002@lemmy.world 1 year agoNintendo intentionally under powers their stuff to cut down on costs in order target the all encompassing “family” demographic. It’s like their whole schtick since the Wii (The GameCube was the last time iirc they tried to compete with the Xbox/PS)

Technically the Wii U was the most powerful console at the time it released.
But only because it released towards then end of the Xbox 360 / PS3 lifecycle, so it was a very short time period until it was once again severely underpowered compared to Xbox any Playstation
